How are we framing the history of November 25th? Why the assassination of the Mirabal sisters in the Dominican Republic showed the international community the brutality of violence against women in politics? Are we remembering women as political actors or only as victims of violence?


How are we building the collective memory of women in our countries?


An interview with Dr. Ada Alvarez Conde, Caribbean Historian, Author and Dating Violence Expert.
