A Latino man stands in a crowd raising a sign in his hands that reads "El Presente es de lucha, el future es nuestro!" (The present is a time of struggle, the future is ours!). A yellow picket sign hangs around his neck that reads "I AM A HUMAN BEING." Several other people behind him wear similar yellow picket signs.

The future is ours! UNITE HERE staged a massive civil disobedience action in support of hotel workers along the Century Blvd. corridor in 2006.
