In this advanced Spanish listening practice, discover the incredible story of the Mirabal Sisters and the legacy they’ve left behind - not just in their country but around the world.

For their tireless work, they lost their lives, but their sacrifice ultimately led to the overthrow of Trujillo, which had been their goal from the start.
