The National Farm Workers Association (NFWA), led by César Chávez, joined the cause one week later in what would become a five-year strike that included consumer boycotts, marches, and nonviolent resistance inspired by the civil rights movement. NFWA called for its first boycott in December 1965, aimed at the Schenley Industries liquor company, which was the second largest grape grower in Delano. Supporters gathered at liquor stores and bars across the country, including in Oregon, to protest the sale of Schenley products. Here, picketers show solidarity with farm workers in front of a state liquor store in Portland, Oregon.
