The recent revelations involving Cesar Chavez are deeply disturbing and painful. The Mexican American Studies Department at the University of Arizona stands resolutely with survivors and their families, joining them in the pursuit of truth, justice, and healing.

To this end, immediate redress is needed.
* We call on the institution to cover the name of the building on the UA campus to mitigate its traumatizing effect on students and survivors.
* We call on faculty to renew its commitment to scholarship created with accountability.

Going forward,
* Any renaming of the building calls for a robust process involving faculty, students, and community members to avoid erasure of the contributions of the Latinx community to the state and the institution’s land grant mission.
* We look forward to working with our administration on the renaming of the building.

True progress is shaped by the collective, not by any one individual. We will continue our work to dismantle harmful structures and hold power accountable. Equity isn’t just a goal; it’s a movement of the many.
