Day Day and the Resistance Movement in the Dominican Republic

Minerva Mariball is the first woman to graduate from law school in the Dominican Republic. She becomes more and more involved in resistance efforts against dictator Trujillo. The sisters also recruit their husbands as members of the movement. They stockpile weapons and even sit around Patria's kitchen table making makeshift bombs together. In January 1960, they help form what's called the 14th of June movement - named for a failed uprising against Trujillo in 1959.
