RACINE — Mayor Cory Mason is proposing that the Common Council consider renaming the Cesar Chavez Community Center to the Dolores Huerta Community Center.
He made the proposal Thursday after Dolores Huerta, who co-founded the United Farmer Workers alongside Chavez, accused Chavez of sexual assault.
A New York Times investigation Wednesday found Chavez also groomed and sexually abused young girls who worked in the movement.

A resolution to rename the community center will be introduced at the Common Council meeting April 20.
The Cesar Chavez Community Center is on Racine’s north side at 2221 Douglas Ave.
