Trujillo Rafael Leonidas Trujillo Molina, the dictator of the Dominican Republic from 1930 until his assassination in As described by Sinita to Minerva, "Trujillo became president in a sneaky way. First, he was in the army, and all the people who were above him kept disappearing until he was the one right below the head of the whole armed forces."

“We were the family that got out and came the US. We got out and [others] didn’t make it. And so what is the responsibility of those that survive? To remember, and to remind. It’s through telling the story that we really understand the full complexity of what happened to us. Not just the fact, not just the either- or, but the full text, textured complexity of a dictatorship and how we got out of it.” ~Julia Alvarez
