These sisters were Dede, Patria, Maria Teresa, and Minerva Mirabal. Minerva was the one who stood out the most to me. The passion she had and showed made her sound like a sacrificial leader. Minerva was the type to stand up for what she believed in. Rafael Trujillo was the leader of the Dominican Republic, whatever he say or want to be changed it changes. He was a brutal dictator.

The Mirabal sisters will always be a

Mildred had a shocking event in her life called suicide. One day she took a bottle of pills, and the next day when she was better her husband told her about that horrible event, but she said that she never try to commit suicide, she denied it more than one time again and again (Bradbury 17).
