11. A woman who leaves her children in her homeland, to give them a better future...one better than hers. A woman whose voice cracks as she expresses the obligations of all those who find themselves at a disadvantage for being violators of the laws of this nation. A strong woman...Very strong! in the face of the emotional distress that she must feel through the separation of her children, for the desire of a better future. How many women like Jaqueline Rivera can we think of who have a wish, a human right, of a better future for their loved ones?
