As part of our ethical approach, our four interviews was done one to one, afro descendant women and in their native language (creole), to gain confidence and that the ladies would express freely, also we compromise to respect their identity, Roxi, Samantha, Dorothy & Leany are all pseudonymous. Our stars actress lead us to an unknown dimension of love, horror, hate, peace, and incredible strength, Roxi, Samantha, Dorothy & Leany, had the opportunity to cry, laugh, scream and heal. Incredibly was the result of the information obtaining from each one of our stars actress.
