On the early morning of August 15, 1973, Nagi Daifullah stood among a group of picketers outside Smokehouse Cafe in Lamont, California when three Kern County Sheriffs surveilling Mr. Daifullah arrived. Sheriffs broke the line by force and explicitly targeted Nagi.  As Mr. Daifullah began running, Sheriff Deputy Gilbert Cooper violently clubbed him in head once with a large steel flashlight severing his spinal cord then dragged his paralyzed body over unpaved road extensively. Nagi Daifullah was martyred at the hands of the surveillance state and police sending shock waves through the union and deeply impacting the trajectory of the farmworker movement.

On August 17, 1973, two days after his assassination, led by César Chávez, as many as 10,000 farmworkers, United Farm Workers’ members, and community marched four miles in silence while Yemeni farmworkers carried his casket draped in the UFW flag to the memorial service at the United Farm Workers’ headquarters. 

After international attention from both the Boycott Grapes campaign and it’s strike captain Nagi’s violent death, then-Governor Jerry Brown and the California Legislature were pressured two years later to enact the Agricultural Labor Relations Act. It is still the only state law in the nation granting farmworkers the right to organize, to vote for the union in secret-ballot elections and to negotiate with their employers for union contracts that improve workers’ lives.

Among the farmworkers who voted in the first officially recognized union elections in 1975 were thousands of Yemeni farmworkers in the Central Valley who organized in Nagi’s memory. Farmworkers in CA still use this law today to organize and strengthen farmworker and campesino unions across California.

Today and always, we elevate the life, labor, love, and legacy of Nagi Daifullah.

As a Yemeni migrant to the United States, Mr. Daifullah was a farm worker, and union organizer with the United Farm Workers. He was one of the 3 strike captains during the 1973 grape farmers’ strike organized by Cesar Chavez. Daifullah spoke Arabic, English and Spanish, and was integral in not only organizing the Yemeni community but also transcending ethnic and linguistic barriers between workers & multiple low-earning industries in the Central Valley of California.

Nagi Daifullah came to this country from his native Yemen, and promised a better life for work in California. He arrived only to live in barren labor camps, and charged for room and board by employers while on average making an annual income of $94 with no health or support social services.

Mr. Daifullah quickly learned Spanish and began critical work with UFW’s Latino and Filipino organizers.  Nagi was the first and became the highest ranking Yemeni labor organizer in the organization.  Mr. Daifullah connected community, expanded UFW’s arabic translator program, translated organization and state resources like California labor rights into Arabic, arranged for halal food in the labor camps, and ensured access to healthcare for tuberculosis and respiratory infections (common among farm workers), as well schistosomiasis–an intestinal infection caused by contact of parasites in water endemic in Yemen. The UFW tested and treated thousands of Yemenis.

Mr. Daifullah was pivotal in unifying community, and creating a blueprint to building power and strengthening workers rights across California and ultimately the United States.

Today, this and always, we honor the life, labor, love and legacy of Nagi Daifullah. JOIN US!
