That was November. So February 20, or February 21, I climbed the school in Austin, Texas, that is owned and operated by CEO Juan Sanchez [former CEO of Southwest Key, a nonprofit that operated shelters for migrant children and has faced abuse allegations and questions about possible financial mismanagement ].
One of them created this beautiful postcard, and it was on my website for people to download and write words of encouragement and solace to children in migrant cages. There was a designated location in El Paso where they were to mail it. And when I saw the kind gesture, I was so overwhelmed with joy and encouragement.
I used my cell phone to go on a live feed. You can see I put up two giant banners. They left, and I came down on my own.
I had been there for eight hours. The thing is, they are profiting off of migrant children. I would probably tell young people to think first if you have enough support around you. Because, unfortunately I did not have much support. Or groups? It was hard at first. When I was put on home confinement, it was like thank god, I needed a break. The public, people made it hard for me to do my job. I had to reach out to them. Here I am making myself known to the world, about the power we have — we the people — and what we can possibly do together, but no one really was reaching out.
If they did, it was early on because of the glamour of the story. The media also did me a disservice when they portrayed me as the woman who climbed the Statue of Liberty, rather than the woman who sacrificed her life for the migrant children. If a white woman had climbed the Statue of Liberty for children in cages on the Fourth of July, the story wouldn't have died. I attribute it to being a black woman and being an immigrant. They see me go to Africa, they see me go to Europe — hey, I went to Africa because my mom was in a coma and my attorney worked overnight to get my passport from the Department of Justice and the next day I was on a flight and my mom did pass away and I buried her.
Thank god it was always Rise and Resist who has been there for me, despite the criticism, the backlash they received. They got me the attorney that I have, pro bono. The work is tremendous. I think I need to focus on my child and on my self, because I do not have the resources to do this work. I came in as a full-time activist, and people enjoy the work that I did, and they donated, I appreciate that. They came to court. But look around you.
