10/10
The movie was thorough in portraying violence against women who spoke against a corrupt government.
6 March 2005
By watching this movie, I was educated in that women are abused severely in so many other cultures for reasons we take for granted in the United States. I did not know that women in the Dominican Republic were abused and/or beaten to death for protesting corruptness. I am an American born Black woman of Hispanic origin (Puerto Rican heritage).

A lot of us born to Black women and Hispanic fathers outside of wedlock do not know much of our heritage due to the separation of our parents and most of us are raised solely as Black children. As an adult, I am embracing my Hispanic heritage. I need to learn more of my father's culture. I cannot learn from him because he has passed on, but he never stopped looking for his ángela negra pequeña.

I plan to use this movie in my English Literature class in honor of March's Women's month.

We must abolish domestic violence against women all over the world! Women are the creatures God put on this earth to reproduce. Such violence against women must end. What better place to deter violence against women than educating young men in school.

Please continue to bring new material to us.
