Dede Mirabal is the only surviving sister of the Mirabal's sisters. Patria, Minerva and Maria Teresa were killed by the Dominican dictator Trujillo. Dede has dedicated her life to keep alive the memories of her sisters.
The Mirabal sisters, known as "Las Mariposas" (the butterflies), were given this nickname as a symbol of their strength and resilience in the face of oppression under the Trujillo dictatorship in the Dominican Republic. The name reflects their desire for freedom and change, as butterflies represent transformation and beauty. Tragically, the sisters were assassinated for their activism, making their nickname a lasting emblem of courage and resistance against tyranny.
they were assassinated while driving, but Dede and her husband were not there when it happened. so they are still alive.
