United Farm Workers - Keene, CA - Flags of Organizations on Waymarking.com

The flag has a red background with a white circle. On top of the circle is a black Aztec eagle.

"The black eagle signifies the dark situation of the farm worker. The Aztec eagle is a historic symbol for the people of Mexico. The UFW incorporated the Aztec eagle into its design in order to show the connection the union had to migrant workers of Mexican-American descent, though not all UFW workers were/are Mexican-American.
The white circle signifies hope and aspirations.

The red background stands for the hard work and sacrifice that the union members would have to give." (visit link)
