This B&W clip from the 1960s -- the 1st clip of 3 -- focuses on striking farmworkers in the Central Valley of California, likely as part of a news story on the plight of local farmworkers.

Sign of Dantoni Orchard, presumably the one in Marysville, CA. Says that Di Giorgio Fruit Corporation is the orchard operator. 

Two men hold signs on the roadside. One man’s sign says: “ON STRIKE! We want a higher wage! AWOC AFL-CIO.” The other man’s sign says: “ON STRIKE for better pay. AWOC AFL-CIO.”

Sign on truck says: “Agriculture Workers Get Wise Organize.” A man speaks into a megaphone. 

Other strikers are seen on the roadside, including a woman. Men hold strike signs at an orchard entrance while a truck passes them by. 

Men are picking fruit trees. A truck with boxed produce moves through the orchard.
