Option 1

 * Delano Grape Strike
 * Delano grape strike - Wikipedia:
 * This article is neatly divided into the background, events leading up to the strike, and events of the strike, and effects. However, it seems to focus almost entirely on the Mexican National Farmworkers Association's role (NFWA), and skims over the role of Filipinos in the strike. When my partner and I contribute to this page, we are hoping to add the Filipino side to the story. :

Option 2

 * Larry Itliong
 * Larry Itliong - Wikipedia:
 * This article features a biography of the Filipino leader for the Delano Grape Strike, Larry Itliong. It describes his background as a farmworker and his role in organizing the strike with the Mexican Farmworkers. This information will be particularly helpful for me and my partner as we contribute to the Delano Grape Strike page, given that Itliong played a pivotal role in organizing the strike. :
 * "Distinguished Asian Americans - A biographical dictionary" (Book):

Option 3

 * United Farm Workers
 * United Farm Workers - Wikipedia:
 * This article discusses the merger of the Filipino Labor association, "Agricultural Workers Organizing Committee (AWOC)", and the Mexican labor association, "National Farmworkers association (NFWA)". The merger was largely the result of a common interest in worker's wages, and both organizations came together to organize the Delano grape strike in 1966. This information will be helpful as my partner and I contribute to the Delano Grape Strike page, given that the UFW merger was one of the main effects of the strike.
