The correct answer is A: leading hunger strikes, marches, and boycotts of crops.
Cesar Chavez was a civil rights activists for farmers and is widely recognized as one of the most famous Hispanic-American activists. He routinely went on fasts or hunger strikes like Gandhi did, to attract public attention to certain problems. He also organized boycotts and strikes like Martin Luther King Jr, to protest against pesticides and unfair labor laws. Cesar Chavez helped co-found the National Farm Association. He was majorly popular within the Hispanic community, especially on the west coast where many farmers were Mexican-American.
