Youth supporters of the S. Central Farm performed a play in the Olvera St. kiosk remeniscent of those performed by UFW farmers in the 1970s. The play depicted the family values of farming and the farmer's victory against a greedy developer and a self-serving city council. The big-eared city council rep. above, only listens to big bags of money.
