WEBVTT - Las Mariposas

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:03.680
<v Speaker 1>Hey, podcast listeners, just a heads up. This episode contains

0:00:03.720 --> 0:00:07.600
<v Speaker 1>some intense material, including references to severe violence, some of

0:00:07.640 --> 0:00:11.039
<v Speaker 1>which might not be appropriate for children. Please take care

0:00:11.119 --> 0:00:19.079
<v Speaker 1>while listening. From executive producers Daniel Ramidez and myself, Eva Longoria,

0:00:19.560 --> 0:00:22.639
<v Speaker 1>Sisters of the Underground tells the powerful story of the

0:00:22.680 --> 0:00:27.040
<v Speaker 1>Middle Bell Sisters, real life Latina's who sacrificed everything for

0:00:27.120 --> 0:00:45.080
<v Speaker 1>the fight for freedom. Okay, buckle up, musium here week,

0:00:45.440 --> 0:00:50.519
<v Speaker 1>calm all these letters the amina, they're kind of like

0:00:50.560 --> 0:00:53.160
<v Speaker 1>a story. Do you think you can make a whole

0:00:53.200 --> 0:00:57.400
<v Speaker 1>book out of all these letters? When there how only

0:00:58.160 --> 0:01:03.640
<v Speaker 1>that way more people can read? And even outside the museum.

0:01:03.720 --> 0:01:07.680
<v Speaker 1>You are a very smart one, are they like? Uh?

0:01:08.640 --> 0:01:14.920
<v Speaker 1>I wonder which letter was the very last one before Abuela?

0:01:17.520 --> 0:01:21.000
<v Speaker 1>You know, do you think they ever got to say

0:01:21.000 --> 0:01:25.560
<v Speaker 1>goodbye to each other? No one actually knows me. I'm more,

0:01:26.840 --> 0:01:30.280
<v Speaker 1>but I don't think so. You know, life isn't the

0:01:30.360 --> 0:01:33.520
<v Speaker 1>study as all that. And after Puppy was transferred to

0:01:33.560 --> 0:01:38.160
<v Speaker 1>the prison in Pata, everything took a turn for the worst.

0:01:40.920 --> 0:01:45.840
<v Speaker 1>Good morning, are you in charge here? Good morning? We

0:01:45.959 --> 0:01:49.280
<v Speaker 1>have information that our husbands have been transferred. That's correct,

0:01:49.560 --> 0:01:54.440
<v Speaker 1>they have been transferred to Puerto Plata. Whata And why

0:01:54.480 --> 0:01:56.960
<v Speaker 1>weren't we informed or this from our superiors? We just

0:01:57.000 --> 0:02:00.360
<v Speaker 1>follow them, but can't we see them? Is it's are

0:02:00.400 --> 0:02:03.520
<v Speaker 1>permitted on Fridays from two to five pm? Oh very well,

0:02:03.560 --> 0:02:07.200
<v Speaker 1>then we'll go this Friday, all right, I'll notify my superior,

0:02:07.640 --> 0:02:10.040
<v Speaker 1>as you well know, you must first report here before

0:02:10.040 --> 0:02:14.080
<v Speaker 1>you leave. Well, we just did tell your superior that

0:02:14.200 --> 0:02:23.320
<v Speaker 1>this upcoming Friday will be importa. Don't go to Portolat.

0:02:24.240 --> 0:02:27.840
<v Speaker 1>It will just throw attention to you. I'm very worried.

0:02:28.000 --> 0:02:29.960
<v Speaker 1>Easy for you to say you have your husband by

0:02:30.000 --> 0:02:33.000
<v Speaker 1>your side, unlike us I and honestly that they what

0:02:33.040 --> 0:02:34.840
<v Speaker 1>can they do to us that they haven't done already?

0:02:34.960 --> 0:02:39.200
<v Speaker 1>But I see some mane. It's just too risky. I

0:02:39.240 --> 0:02:41.480
<v Speaker 1>think it's better if you wait it out until things

0:02:41.520 --> 0:02:46.960
<v Speaker 1>get better with these people. Waiting is the last thing

0:02:47.000 --> 0:02:50.040
<v Speaker 1>we can afford to do. We've waited decades too long

0:02:50.080 --> 0:02:53.160
<v Speaker 1>to free ourselves from their oppression. Meanwhile, they gain power

0:02:53.240 --> 0:02:56.920
<v Speaker 1>by the day. I'm going with you, Babria. Don't you

0:02:57.000 --> 0:02:59.800
<v Speaker 1>even there. I won't let them go alone. Hire a driver.

0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:03.640
<v Speaker 1>You don't have to put your life at risks. Rumors

0:03:03.680 --> 0:03:07.520
<v Speaker 1>from the city alleged that you are being newer to Portada.

0:03:08.600 --> 0:03:10.799
<v Speaker 1>Excuse me just to be killed. Let me see how

0:03:13.760 --> 0:03:16.840
<v Speaker 1>the voice of the people is the voice of God.

0:03:17.360 --> 0:03:21.160
<v Speaker 1>Isn't that what you're always saying? Tranquila? Mommy, listen, there's

0:03:21.160 --> 0:03:24.080
<v Speaker 1>safety in numbers. We will be in public, and the

0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:27.200
<v Speaker 1>video cares too much about his image to do anything drastic.

0:03:28.639 --> 0:03:32.239
<v Speaker 1>Are you sure about this, Patria? We survived la guarenda.

0:03:32.560 --> 0:03:34.840
<v Speaker 1>We will be okay. I've never been so sure of

0:03:34.920 --> 0:03:37.440
<v Speaker 1>anything in my whole life. No, no, no, no, no no,

0:03:37.520 --> 0:03:40.440
<v Speaker 1>I can't believe this. Use me. Let me see how

0:03:41.800 --> 0:03:45.120
<v Speaker 1>I raise you to be strong in spirit and lespity

0:03:45.200 --> 0:03:50.640
<v Speaker 1>to not heads strong. Mommy, pa, if it's the four

0:03:50.760 --> 0:03:53.680
<v Speaker 1>of us, including the driver, it'd be political suicide for

0:03:54.280 --> 0:03:57.080
<v Speaker 1>to hurt us. It would make him look weak, not strong.

0:03:57.640 --> 0:04:03.840
<v Speaker 1>He will risk it, can't I Your boy, calm down,

0:04:03.920 --> 0:04:09.480
<v Speaker 1>it's just ruffino. He's taking us to put good evening.

0:04:10.040 --> 0:04:14.560
<v Speaker 1>How are you all doing bad? Very bad? I hear

0:04:14.600 --> 0:04:18.159
<v Speaker 1>you're the one taking my stubborn sisters tomorrow. Huh. I

0:04:18.279 --> 0:04:21.680
<v Speaker 1>am rene gladly agreed to let me take you in

0:04:21.680 --> 0:04:26.280
<v Speaker 1>his car. That's your disguise is somewhat We've heard great

0:04:26.320 --> 0:04:28.960
<v Speaker 1>things about you, one of the best drivers in town.

0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:34.080
<v Speaker 1>Thanks always here to help, especially if it's for your family.

0:04:35.360 --> 0:04:37.359
<v Speaker 1>What time do you want to leave? Very early in

0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:39.760
<v Speaker 1>the morning. We want to arrive well ahead of the

0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:43.320
<v Speaker 1>meeting time. Consider it done. I'll take care of the rest.

0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:53.680
<v Speaker 1>Good night, good night, and thank you Ruffino. On November

0:04:56.400 --> 0:05:01.359
<v Speaker 1>another day that I will never forget. Mom Maria, Theresa

0:05:01.640 --> 0:05:07.600
<v Speaker 1>Patria la Cruz took off on their journey to that prison.

0:05:09.800 --> 0:05:13.480
<v Speaker 1>Before they left, Ill said they notified the authorities as

0:05:13.560 --> 0:05:26.560
<v Speaker 1>they had promised, and arrived in Port just in time. Manol,

0:05:31.600 --> 0:05:37.880
<v Speaker 1>And are they hurting you why? I don't know. At

0:05:37.920 --> 0:05:43.479
<v Speaker 1>least no more torture for now, and I want to

0:05:43.520 --> 0:05:47.080
<v Speaker 1>be able to tell the children I'm okay, my dad.

0:05:48.240 --> 0:05:50.360
<v Speaker 1>I just feel so very far away from all of you.

0:05:51.320 --> 0:05:54.279
<v Speaker 1>I know you said we feel it too. But the

0:05:54.360 --> 0:05:57.720
<v Speaker 1>good news is that we have permission to visit every Friday.

0:05:58.200 --> 0:06:02.520
<v Speaker 1>But don't commune. Are you being well? No? Not really,

0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:08.480
<v Speaker 1>I can tell you looked then. How's the trip long?

0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:14.479
<v Speaker 1>But all right, this is all such small talk when

0:06:14.480 --> 0:06:17.720
<v Speaker 1>I want to say big things. Do you mean you're not? Sam?

0:06:17.760 --> 0:06:23.120
<v Speaker 1>Yea more me too? You know we're not giving up right, Yeah,

0:06:23.160 --> 0:06:27.520
<v Speaker 1>I know, but we're worried. We think they know that too.

0:06:28.000 --> 0:06:30.479
<v Speaker 1>There is a persistent rumor from the new prisoners that

0:06:30.600 --> 0:06:33.400
<v Speaker 1>the only reason we were transferred here was to lure

0:06:33.440 --> 0:06:36.560
<v Speaker 1>you to your death. That they heard the same thing.

0:06:37.640 --> 0:06:40.960
<v Speaker 1>We can't believe it's true, but just to be safe,

0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:45.320
<v Speaker 1>Patia came and the world's best driver who finally acoust

0:06:45.400 --> 0:06:47.640
<v Speaker 1>Do you think this routine gives a rest ass about

0:06:47.680 --> 0:06:52.880
<v Speaker 1>that about appearances? With what we've seen and heard, this

0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:55.240
<v Speaker 1>government and half ago on the abbes, all of them

0:06:55.520 --> 0:06:58.240
<v Speaker 1>will do anything to anybody with no remorse or care.

0:07:00.240 --> 0:07:02.560
<v Speaker 1>This meeting is over. What do you mean over? We

0:07:02.720 --> 0:07:06.120
<v Speaker 1>just got here. You heard me, miss obey my orders

0:07:06.240 --> 0:07:09.200
<v Speaker 1>or meet the same faith as your husband's. Let's go

0:07:09.400 --> 0:07:11.720
<v Speaker 1>momento inside said that we were told that we would

0:07:11.720 --> 0:07:21.360
<v Speaker 1>have until five. I said it's over. Stay strongly, Andrew,

0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:29.080
<v Speaker 1>this will be over soon. I can only imagine how

0:07:29.160 --> 0:07:32.120
<v Speaker 1>this must have felt like a door closed on their hopes.

0:07:33.160 --> 0:07:39.880
<v Speaker 1>The abruptest missile made them anxious and vigilant. Either me,

0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:43.040
<v Speaker 1>we're being followed. You write my day. That car has

0:07:43.040 --> 0:07:47.960
<v Speaker 1>been following the since we saw a dream. Please be careful,

0:07:48.000 --> 0:07:51.160
<v Speaker 1>Ruffino don't drive so fast. No, no, drive faster. We

0:07:51.200 --> 0:07:54.200
<v Speaker 1>need to lose that dream. I think I've been carrying

0:07:54.240 --> 0:07:57.080
<v Speaker 1>it around all my life. I have a bad feeling.

0:07:58.720 --> 0:08:01.760
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you're just six courting us, making sure we leave.

0:08:02.160 --> 0:08:04.800
<v Speaker 1>Don't be so naive, Mathing. Well, we can't assume they

0:08:04.920 --> 0:08:09.240
<v Speaker 1>got our meeting short. They must be up to something. Look,

0:08:10.160 --> 0:08:15.200
<v Speaker 1>there is a roadblock. They are ordering us to stop.

0:08:15.360 --> 0:08:19.320
<v Speaker 1>Don't don't stop, you mean don't you joined the revolution

0:08:19.400 --> 0:08:21.480
<v Speaker 1>late Patria. It doesn't mean you have to make up

0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:24.040
<v Speaker 1>for the last time. They'll shoot us if we don't comply.

0:08:25.320 --> 0:08:30.080
<v Speaker 1>Of course I'll stop. I'm sure it's some sort of misunderstanding.

0:08:31.320 --> 0:08:34.640
<v Speaker 1>See Prometa, there are five of them. No, no, no,

0:08:34.679 --> 0:08:39.640
<v Speaker 1>this isn't a misunderstanding. It's a challenge. Five men were

0:08:39.640 --> 0:08:43.079
<v Speaker 1>waiting for them, not matter pic a bridge led by

0:08:43.080 --> 0:08:48.520
<v Speaker 1>the commanders. Little did they know that this man was

0:08:48.559 --> 0:08:54.040
<v Speaker 1>in charge of a brutal plant. Was right. He'd received

0:08:54.080 --> 0:08:58.840
<v Speaker 1>an order to apprehend them days before. Their access to

0:08:58.880 --> 0:09:03.440
<v Speaker 1>their husbands was a part of a set up. What

0:09:03.600 --> 0:09:07.079
<v Speaker 1>is the matter, officer. We've just been to see our husbands.

0:09:07.160 --> 0:09:09.719
<v Speaker 1>We had official permission, and now we're on our way

0:09:09.720 --> 0:09:11.920
<v Speaker 1>back home. I have orders to detain you and take

0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:16.200
<v Speaker 1>you in our vehicles. There and why we've complied with

0:09:16.320 --> 0:09:20.320
<v Speaker 1>every demand. Just get out of the car. Patria, who

0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:23.120
<v Speaker 1>was sitting on the right side, saw a truck driving

0:09:23.160 --> 0:09:28.600
<v Speaker 1>by and jumped out and ran to engage and alert them. Hey, hey, hey,

0:09:28.720 --> 0:09:30.840
<v Speaker 1>we're the mirror of our sisters. You've heard of us.

0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:35.640
<v Speaker 1>Surely the military is arresting us for no reason. Please help, please,

0:09:35.640 --> 0:09:38.800
<v Speaker 1>they're going to kill us. Please, hey, comes, come here,

0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:42.360
<v Speaker 1>come here now, you don't touch me. Come down thine

0:09:42.480 --> 0:09:45.640
<v Speaker 1>a lot worse. Please tell her family if they're taking us,

0:09:45.920 --> 0:09:52.080
<v Speaker 1>Please tell her family. Family. No one dare to fight

0:09:52.160 --> 0:09:56.960
<v Speaker 1>the regime playing sight like that. Immediately the guards got

0:09:57.080 --> 0:09:59.880
<v Speaker 1>up with him and she was taken back to the

0:10:00.240 --> 0:10:05.280
<v Speaker 1>by force. You have no right to arrest us. Play

0:10:05.360 --> 0:10:09.000
<v Speaker 1>to me, Let me go. I'm just a driver. Please,

0:10:09.360 --> 0:10:14.400
<v Speaker 1>they're going to kill us, murderers. Was this your dream too? No?

0:10:15.360 --> 0:10:19.920
<v Speaker 1>This is different. I don't think I can continue the story.

0:10:20.000 --> 0:10:25.360
<v Speaker 1>I am I'm gonna pull over. But you said it

0:10:25.400 --> 0:10:30.760
<v Speaker 1>was important for me to know. Was that the day

0:10:30.880 --> 0:10:39.040
<v Speaker 1>that they Please tell me? Okay, no, no, no, no, no no, no, no,

0:10:41.679 --> 0:10:52.880
<v Speaker 1>you can't do it. You speak for them. Okay, if

0:10:52.920 --> 0:10:57.559
<v Speaker 1>I closed my eyes, I can't imagine the cries, the anguish.

0:10:59.000 --> 0:11:10.560
<v Speaker 1>This fair, my dad. The guards hold the sisters deeper

0:11:10.679 --> 0:11:14.800
<v Speaker 1>and deeper into the bushes far from the highway, each

0:11:14.800 --> 0:11:20.840
<v Speaker 1>of them with a victiming toe and a chloe. Each

0:11:20.960 --> 0:11:26.200
<v Speaker 1>goes in a separate direction to commit his brutal lot. Hello,

0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:42.319
<v Speaker 1>kill me, and I will lift my arms ever stronger,

0:11:43.800 --> 0:11:53.120
<v Speaker 1>even from the grave. All right, let's finish what we

0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:55.400
<v Speaker 1>came here to do. Get them into the car and

0:11:55.480 --> 0:11:57.959
<v Speaker 1>we'll ditch it down in the ravine so it will

0:11:58.000 --> 0:12:00.920
<v Speaker 1>looks like an accident. Right. They should have never been

0:12:00.920 --> 0:12:03.520
<v Speaker 1>allowed to cause trouble while they were alive. Let's make

0:12:03.559 --> 0:12:05.120
<v Speaker 1>sure they don't do it now that they are dead.

0:12:19.679 --> 0:12:34.040
<v Speaker 1>M Yeah, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to force you

0:12:34.080 --> 0:12:42.120
<v Speaker 1>to tell it. I'm here, here, I'm here. Oh, probably

0:12:42.160 --> 0:12:52.160
<v Speaker 1>a minima. I'm okay, I just I needed a minute meet.

0:12:53.000 --> 0:12:56.760
<v Speaker 1>It all happened very close to this area. So on

0:12:56.840 --> 0:13:00.439
<v Speaker 1>our way to town you will see the murals honoring

0:13:00.520 --> 0:13:04.679
<v Speaker 1>them right at the edge of the mountain. And I

0:13:04.720 --> 0:13:08.760
<v Speaker 1>think that we should actually go see the monument first,

0:13:08.880 --> 0:13:14.480
<v Speaker 1>jacket and wake before the museum. Lea, stop your mode.

0:13:14.520 --> 0:13:20.520
<v Speaker 1>You already if you are. I think I can do

0:13:20.679 --> 0:13:31.280
<v Speaker 1>it now, right, Yeah, let's keep going okay with the

0:13:31.480 --> 0:13:38.200
<v Speaker 1>story back in all the Agua Mama chair it the

0:13:38.200 --> 0:13:42.680
<v Speaker 1>other day were on edge. Of course, night had fallen

0:13:43.920 --> 0:13:53.920
<v Speaker 1>and there was still no sign or the driver. Something

0:13:53.960 --> 0:13:57.680

0:16:04.800 --> 0:16:10.360
<v Speaker 1>The telegram had omitted Mommy's name on purpose, trying to

0:16:10.440 --> 0:16:15.880
<v Speaker 1>avoid any scandal. So the in suing hours were filled

0:16:15.920 --> 0:16:23.880
<v Speaker 1>with anxiety, sadness, and growing hopelessness to hey that they

0:16:23.920 --> 0:16:28.360
<v Speaker 1>were made to jump through all sorts of bureaucratic hoops

0:16:28.400 --> 0:16:32.680
<v Speaker 1>just to claim the bodies from the hospital. I didn't

0:16:32.680 --> 0:16:37.760

<v Speaker 1>all happened. Wow. Look, I know it's hard for you,

0:17:42.640 --> 0:17:48.879
<v Speaker 1>but I am so glad you brought me. Oh there's

0:17:48.960 --> 0:17:56.040
<v Speaker 1>text here on this plaque. M h FIVOPO M no

<v Speaker 1>where against Saba amarm alive forever she who knows love

0:18:03.080 --> 0:18:06.920
<v Speaker 1>will never die. A seems more here they are still

0:18:07.760 --> 0:18:10.879
<v Speaker 1>always able to renew the desire for freedom of the

0:18:10.960 --> 0:18:20.919
<v Speaker 1>Dominican people. A vigil was held the following day. Hardly

0:18:20.960 --> 0:18:24.760
<v Speaker 1>a word was spoken there, but he threw. He and

0:18:24.920 --> 0:18:29.359
<v Speaker 1>his agents thought they had extinguished the Meal Sisters. I

0:18:30.560 --> 0:18:36.159
<v Speaker 1>they were wrong. They had ignited a flame, and he

0:18:36.359 --> 0:18:40.920
<v Speaker 1>burned everywhere meeting you did people stand up for them.

0:18:40.960 --> 0:18:46.399
<v Speaker 1>Finally there came what I call the way of the

0:18:46.400 --> 0:18:50.040
<v Speaker 1>Cross for them Medabo Sisters, where the civilians would send

0:18:50.080 --> 0:18:54.280
<v Speaker 1>coded messages and formed telephone chains. The group bigger and

0:18:54.320 --> 0:18:58.240
<v Speaker 1>bigger by the day, using their underground name. Of course,

0:18:59.560 --> 0:19:06.960
<v Speaker 1>let my epos the butterflies the butterflies forever, and they

0:19:07.119 --> 0:19:10.159
<v Speaker 1>kiss and how to the middle of our sisters don't

0:19:10.240 --> 0:19:16.280
<v Speaker 1>live the middle of our sisters. As the middle sisters,

0:19:16.800 --> 0:19:26.919
<v Speaker 1>the butterflies are still with us. Good morning, It's April

0:19:26.960 --> 0:19:31.280
<v Speaker 1>Fit team. In today's news, American diplomat Robert Murphy is

0:19:31.320 --> 0:19:45.480
<v Speaker 1>paying a visit to our handed Alisibo. Welcome Murphy. Wow,

0:19:45.760 --> 0:19:51.080
<v Speaker 1>beautiful hotel. Then every reason do you enjoy poker? I've

0:19:51.080 --> 0:19:54.159
<v Speaker 1>had some luck. That's because you haven't played against me.

0:19:57.400 --> 0:20:02.199
<v Speaker 1>We have to change that before you hard Welcome to

0:20:02.240 --> 0:20:06.520
<v Speaker 1>the Presidential suite. I only invite my most steam guests,

0:20:07.000 --> 0:20:11.880
<v Speaker 1>consider yourself one of them. Thank you, Generalismo. More run

0:20:11.960 --> 0:20:17.119
<v Speaker 1>Murphy please. Grassy is premium high quality runs straight from

0:20:17.119 --> 0:20:23.160
<v Speaker 1>the distillery of some marquis. Mm hmm, wow, wow, very smooth.

0:20:24.080 --> 0:20:27.480
<v Speaker 1>You know there are great distilleries in America too. Maybe

0:20:27.480 --> 0:20:29.639
<v Speaker 1>it's time for you to experience what the United States

0:20:29.640 --> 0:20:34.720
<v Speaker 1>has to offer. I enjoy America very much, but I'll

0:20:34.760 --> 0:20:39.720
<v Speaker 1>never abund to my country. Mr Murphy, with all due respect,

0:20:39.960 --> 0:20:43.360
<v Speaker 1>word on the foreign press hasn't been favorable, especially after

0:20:43.400 --> 0:20:47.000
<v Speaker 1>the death of the Mirrabelle sisters. President Kennedy doesn't support

0:20:47.040 --> 0:20:55.240
<v Speaker 1>domestic terrorism in his country or anyone else's. Who does

0:20:55.320 --> 0:21:02.280
<v Speaker 1>he think he is? Huh, mother, that is just keep

0:21:02.320 --> 0:21:05.879
<v Speaker 1>fighting your own wars and let me focus on running

0:21:05.960 --> 0:21:10.080
<v Speaker 1>my own country. General Reasmo, this is not up for debate.

0:21:10.240 --> 0:21:13.639
<v Speaker 1>Our offer is fair. You can live a peaceful and

0:21:13.720 --> 0:21:17.400
<v Speaker 1>prosperous life in the US with your fine horses and cars.

0:21:18.119 --> 0:21:21.440
<v Speaker 1>Perhaps visit Europe during the summer. I'm not living on

0:21:21.480 --> 0:21:24.760
<v Speaker 1>anyone's hand out. It's not a handout. It's the only

0:21:24.760 --> 0:21:27.439
<v Speaker 1>way of working towards a more peaceful transition of power.

0:21:28.240 --> 0:21:31.400
<v Speaker 1>The opposition is getting stronger, and you know it so

0:21:31.480 --> 0:21:33.600
<v Speaker 1>strong in fact, that it seems you've driven more people

0:21:33.640 --> 0:21:37.359
<v Speaker 1>toward communism than away from it. We've asked you to

0:21:37.359 --> 0:21:40.239
<v Speaker 1>step down to ensure political stability and to stop the

0:21:40.280 --> 0:21:43.480
<v Speaker 1>threat of a potential revolution. Things are only going to

0:21:43.520 --> 0:21:45.960
<v Speaker 1>get more challenging for you and your family if you

0:21:46.080 --> 0:21:50.080
<v Speaker 1>choose to stay here. I am not leaving my country.

0:21:50.560 --> 0:21:53.360
<v Speaker 1>Even if Kennedy himself were to come with machine guns

0:21:53.400 --> 0:22:01.640
<v Speaker 1>in the atomic bomb. The keys understand. So now how

0:22:01.680 --> 0:22:08.119
<v Speaker 1>about the rhinod poker? And with pressures mounting, the tyrants

0:22:08.119 --> 0:22:34.680
<v Speaker 1>resorted to what he knew best, repression. Snfica com their

0:22:34.720 --> 0:22:38.840
<v Speaker 1>soldiers are out there again. Al we don't know. Take Manolito,

0:22:38.880 --> 0:22:44.560
<v Speaker 1>me in your clean and hide them rappido rapid when

0:22:44.640 --> 0:22:50.919
<v Speaker 1>I Donna chair Camello, my deepest condolences. May have a

0:22:50.960 --> 0:22:56.359
<v Speaker 1>minute with you alone. No, my mother isn't talking to

0:22:56.400 --> 0:23:00.440
<v Speaker 1>anyone without me. Tell us what you want or leave

0:23:00.560 --> 0:23:05.520
<v Speaker 1>us two mourn. Unfortunately I cannot do that. The sister's

0:23:05.560 --> 0:23:10.120
<v Speaker 1>death is causing disruption. Listen to me, Your leader caused

0:23:10.359 --> 0:23:13.600
<v Speaker 1>the disruption. Heaven needs you to sign this letter, Chail,

0:23:14.600 --> 0:23:17.520
<v Speaker 1>Can I see it? It is to dispel any rumors.

0:23:18.760 --> 0:23:26.800
<v Speaker 1>Mammy yummy. Many have speculated, including the foreign press, about

0:23:26.840 --> 0:23:30.200
<v Speaker 1>the deaths of my three daughters. I wish to make

0:23:30.320 --> 0:23:33.639
<v Speaker 1>clear that this sass situation was the result of a

0:23:33.760 --> 0:23:39.960
<v Speaker 1>terrible accident in the mountains of Puerto Plata. They will say,

0:23:40.000 --> 0:23:45.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm well to locals. What in God's name you know

0:23:46.080 --> 0:23:51.240
<v Speaker 1>what happened. You all know what happened, and you want

0:23:51.320 --> 0:23:56.440
<v Speaker 1>my mother to lie for that man? Please, I am

0:23:56.560 --> 0:24:01.800
<v Speaker 1>just the messenger. They were brutally killed on the orders

0:24:01.840 --> 0:24:06.520
<v Speaker 1>of that devil, your devil, and the car accident was staged.

0:24:07.800 --> 0:24:15.800
<v Speaker 1>This isn't speculations. Is the truth, Combs, and you and

0:24:15.880 --> 0:24:19.560
<v Speaker 1>I both know that everyone knows that. Everyone knows that.

0:24:21.040 --> 0:24:24.760
<v Speaker 1>And now I tell you what if she doesn't sign

0:24:25.600 --> 0:24:32.080
<v Speaker 1>what well? And I can't guarantee that your family will

0:24:32.119 --> 0:24:36.720
<v Speaker 1>be safe? Don't a chair? That is the only daughter

0:24:36.800 --> 0:24:40.680
<v Speaker 1>you have left. What does it matter if you sign on?

0:24:40.840 --> 0:24:45.639
<v Speaker 1>Everyone already knows it was not an accident. Give that

0:24:45.720 --> 0:24:58.800
<v Speaker 1>letter to me, Mama. No, don't sign there's all and don't,

0:24:58.800 --> 0:25:04.960
<v Speaker 1>says Perra Draki. You are not welcoming this house, understood.

0:25:08.920 --> 0:25:10.639
<v Speaker 1>I mean I had to do this for you and

0:25:10.680 --> 0:25:15.719
<v Speaker 1>my grandchildren. There are my responsibility now, and if anything

0:25:15.760 --> 0:25:20.280
<v Speaker 1>were to happen to them, I would never forgive myself.

0:25:21.320 --> 0:25:31.440
<v Speaker 1>Nonka news, why are you going conservively? That was one

0:25:31.440 --> 0:25:34.680
<v Speaker 1>of the toughest things Mama Chia had to do, me Enia,

0:25:36.040 --> 0:25:38.879
<v Speaker 1>but it is probably why I am still here to

0:25:38.960 --> 0:25:45.879
<v Speaker 1>tell their stories. But still with rumor circulating and the

0:25:45.960 --> 0:25:49.440
<v Speaker 1>foreign press hounding to hit you, the story was late

0:25:49.760 --> 0:25:55.120
<v Speaker 1>reaching the most important people in the sisters lives. Bobby

0:25:55.280 --> 0:26:01.960

0:26:02.000 --> 0:26:07.640

<v Speaker 1>of National Police, Miguel delba Albais, had a gift delivered

0:26:16.920 --> 0:26:21.600
<v Speaker 1>Mr Dovas. We don't normally share newspapers with political prisoners,

0:26:22.880 --> 0:26:30.359
<v Speaker 1>but we thought you might want to read this. Three

0:26:30.400 --> 0:26:37.000
<v Speaker 1>sisters and their driver die following a cheap accident. What

0:26:38.040 --> 0:26:40.720
<v Speaker 1>the jeep driver in the middle of our sisters, who
