Read the excerpt from "lessons of dr. martin luther king, jr."
the crop which poses the greatest danger, and the focus of our struggle, is the table grape crop. these pesticides soak the
fields, drift with the wind pollute the water, and are eaten by unwitting consumers.
the poisons are designed to kill, and pose a very real threat to consumers and farm workers alike.
what is chavez's purpose in this passage?
to inform people about how farm workers and consumers work together to fight the dangers of pesticides
to convince people that pesticides are used mainly in the fields where table grapes are grown
to entertain people with stories about the ways in which pesticides travel from the fields into homes
to persuade people that everyone is affected by the harmful chemicals found in pesticides
