More quotes by Martha Yujra
Today Bolivians are more united than ever.
It is important to preserve the cultural practices of our Bolivian people because they enrich the national identity. My commitment, as a woman in pollera, is to continue fighting for a country united in diversity.
It is women's time. We are the ones who take the reins of this country.
In the mine, our parents told us women: "You have to learn to cook because you have to have a husband. You don't have to study, you don't have to give your opinion". I have lived those times, and I have rebelled.
[I want to remembered] as an Aymara woman, from El Alto, and humble. But a leader should never say "me, me, me", but rather the bases have to decide who to remember and who to forget.
