Welcome music lovers! Our community is meant to be the place to go for music that has a leftist message. As we all know, the communists have the music, so we might as well share it! We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus.

This song is by the band Los Lobos, and actually comes from the album used as our community art! The band wanted to commemorate the 1965 Delano Grape Strike by the UFW. The phrase "viva la huelga en general!" means "long live the general strike!" Cesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta were the leaders of this strike, with Dolores also coordinating the wine and grape boycott with the International Longshoremen union and community supporters.
