Read the passage about the life of Cesar Chavez.

Cesar Chavez was born on March 31, 1927, near Yuma, Arizona. Chavez is best known for his use of nonviolent means to draw attention to the poor working conditions of farm workers in the United States. He also formed the National Farm Workers Association in 1962. In 1972, the National Farm Workers Association merged with the Agricultural Workers Organizing Committee to become the United Farm Workers. Chavez led marches, boycotts, and hunger strikes. It is believed that these hunger strikes may have contributed to his death on April 23, 1993.

Chavez dedicated his life to improving the lives of farm workers, a life with which he was very familiar. Until he was ten, his parents had owned a farm. They lost this farm during the Great Depression, and he and his family became migrant farm workers. Chavez had to work even harder after his father was injured in an automobile accident. He knew all too well about the poor pay and terrible working conditions withstood by farm workers. Chavez used nonviolent means to fight for the improved treatment, pay, and working conditions of farm workers. He was instrumental in organizing one such famous strike against the California grape growers in 1965, a battle that lasted for years. At one point, Chavez even called for a national boycott against the grape growers. His efforts over the years resulted in several victories for farm workers. After his death, Chavez was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

A yearbook page for Cesar Chavez states "Remember when . . . you fought for better working conditions for farm workers?" What image would best illustrate this?

an image of Cesar Chavez farming with his family
an image of Cesar Chavez leading a peaceful march
an image of Cesar Chavez working on a farm as a boy
an image of Cesar Chavez eating with farm workers

Answer:

An image of Cesar Chavez leading a peaceful march

Step-by-step explanation:

Any of the other answers don't make sense; him with an image with his family has nothing to do with fighting for better working conditions. Him working on a farm just shows that he farmed, not helped. An image with him and farmers would just show that he was friends with some farm workers.
