I assume that the latch is broken? You can get a stiff wire and poke it in the hole on the right inside section of the handle - hook the release lever and pull down while pulling outward.
If this doesn't work or the hole is blocked by part of the handle, then you'll have to pull the paneling off from the inside. Look on the Toyota Sequoia boards - there are tons of explanations on how to do this and some even provide pictures. You probably will need to replace the rear handle - not that hard a job. The dealer wanted $400; I did it for $15 with an eBay knockoff.

2002 Toyota Sequoia backdoor wont open?
If the handle is broken, then you'll have to manually open it. If the locking mechanism is frozen, you will have to manually open it. Generally that means pulling the back panel off and pulling the latch cables by hand. Sequoia forums have detailed information on how to remove the rear panel - fairly simple.
