Google Dept: WASHINGTON Google decision to honour the birthday of U.S. labour organizer Cesar Chavez angered some American Christians on Sunday, who fumed that it was disrespectful to celebrate Chavez with a so-called Google Doodle on Easter Sunday, according to The Chronicle Herald. Chavez, who died 20 years ago, was a co-founder of the United Farm Workers, a union dedicated to fighting for decent pay, humane working conditions and safe housing for farm workers. Two years ago, President Barack Obama declared March 31 Cesar Chavez Day and The face of Chavez, a Mexican immigrant who organized Latino farm workers in the 1960s, was situated in the middle o of the Google logo on Sunday as the search engine giant opted against recognizing a secular holiday to commemorate what would have been the civil rights activist 86th birthday.
