"With all of the different things that happened to me, I just believe it's very important that the people in this country and around the world realize that in the brutality of what happened to me ~ In the brutality of what happened to me, it's only a mirror and a magnifying glass of the brutality that's been happening to the people, and the water, and the land in Ecuador for over thirtly years ~ and the brutality that's happening to the land. and the people, and the water of Ecuador because of corporations like Occidental." "I made a commitment to the people of Ecuador while I was there ~ I now feel l that they are my family, as we all are family in this world. I am here in front of the Occidental offices today to put them on warning - We will be back - and actions will continue to happen - and people will continue to speak out - and we will not go away, until they go away."
