DescriptionA young girl walks in a parade celebrating César Chávez Day Fiesta in Albuquerque, New Mexico. She is walking away from the camera, wearing blue posterboard wings strapped to her back. The wings have smiley faces on them and the words, "Que viva Cesar Chavez" (Long live Cesar Chavez) "Viva la libre expresion" (Long live free expression) and "Que viva el trabajador inmigrante" (Long live the immigrant worker). The little girl is wearing red pants and a pink sweatshirt and walking along a sidewalk that is bordered by a black metal fence. In the background is a woman walking ahead of the little girl.
