The Rise and Fall of the Las Maraposas

Maria Mercedes Maribal was an upper class woman who married into a family that was anti true heo. She and her sisters, patria and Minerva start to organize together. And they create the nexus of an underground movement aimed at ousting true heo from power. They came to be known as the butterflies or Las Maraposas. This is like one of the really searing moments of the Trujillo regime for obvious reasons.
