00:00What I have clear today here, in this room where I entered so many times, where there have been so
00:07many hard things, is that I am not going to call myself.
00:10And so I am not going to be physically, so I am going to eliminate myself, my voice is already
00:16there.
00:17Because my voice is you, the journalists, the journalists, the survivors, my voice is already going to pay.
00:23And I believe that in that sense, the task is already done.
00:50What I have said today, in my words, is that I didn't come here to forgive, because there are things
00:56that are unperdonable.
00:57I came here to transform, and I believe that the transformation is to find light in the darkest, darkest and
01:07darkest and darkest.
01:09And here, there is a lot of light.
01:25And here, there is a lot of light.
01:29And here, there is a lot of light.
01:33And here, there is a lot of light.
01:39There is a lot of light that were, there are people who were....
01:43There, there are some pretty light.
01:44There were engines with missiles, missiles and grenades in this space.
01:49And, first of all, I want to tell you to ask, thanks, I want to reiterate the words that I
01:54gave you 20 days.
01:55She doesn't know what she has devolved. She allowed me and gave me the opportunity to
02:02meet me here with the journalist who killed him for 24 years. And that doesn't have a price.
02:17This mural has two important moments. It talks about a moment of rupture,
02:22a person who's through a traumatic situation, but that is, the process of rupture
02:29has changed but only thanks to the contentment of a network, which are the women around them.
02:36So, the central issue is the wound. The wound is something that doesn't move,
02:43something that doesn't move, something that transforms, and that only from the transformation
02:48city, it allows the florecimiento of that, that is the main entrance to the
02:56castle. It is a space that was very dark, that was almost
03:03in the middle, and thanks to all this work, not only of color, not only of the
03:08image, not only of the mural, but also of the production of the light, of really
03:12how to think about the space as a quality place, we can hope that all this
03:20will happen.
03:26I have cried enough to not do it today, because today what I want is to celebrate
03:32my life, the life of my mother, Miss Mary Lima, and my life, the women periodists,
03:38many of them are here today, and the of my friends periodists, to celebrate
03:44the lives of millions that have caused the sexual violence and their dignity
03:49that has allowed to rise up to move forward with their struggles and dreams.
03:54Today we remind you, being the international day for the elimination of sexual violence
04:01in the middle of the armed conflict.
04:12Today I want to celebrate the life of each one of the private people in freedom,
04:18those who are part of the orchestra Sondialetro, of which I am self-proclaimed Madrina,
04:24and the group of rock simbiotists, of which I am self-proclaimed Madrina.
04:43And today I am here to tell you that I am going to forgive, because there are things
04:47that are imperdonable.
04:49What I want to tell you, and I want to tell you, is the word transformation.
04:56So what is left in this prison today is this.
05:01No mi perdón.
05:03La transformación de mi dolor.
05:05Para que le sirva en algo a este país y para que le sirva en algo a la memoria.
05:17El asesinato del coronel Elmer Fernández una semana antes de que se terminara el mural,
05:26fue un golpe muy duro, muy difícil, que todavía pesa y duele mucho,
05:31porque yo tomé la decisión de regresar a la cárcel a hacer un proceso de dignificación y de memoria
05:37para el país para decir que aquí en un sitio donde hay tanta violencia también hay luz
05:41y me matan al director de la cárcel, a la persona que me estaba apoyando,
05:45a la persona que todos los días me daba el permiso para poder entrar,
05:50a la persona que estaba tan ilusionado con esto.
05:53Entonces, que lo asesinen de esa manera es como decir, no puedes hacerlo,
05:57o sea, te tienes que callar.
05:58Y creo que en parte el asesinato de él era para decirnos que nos calláramos.
06:13Pero la vida me enseñó que se puede transformar, que se puede transformar el dolor.
06:18Y hoy sentirme tan llena de alegría, he tenido como una mañana llena de alegría
06:25y los últimos 24 años de mi vida yo te puedo decir puntualmente cuáles han sido mis momentos felices,
06:32porque todos han sido llenos de mucho dolor.
06:34Y sentir alegría hoy acá creo que es la respuesta de un proceso muy largo,
06:39un proceso que todavía le falta mucho y que sigue.
06:43Pero hoy yo me siento muy reconciliada con esa violencia que nos sigue afectando.
06:50Y necesitaba sentirme así porque el trabajo que viene es muy duro,
06:54todavía faltan cosas muy difíciles en mi propio proceso.
06:58Yo gané una batalla ante la corte interamericana, pero en Colombia la perdí.
07:02Mi caso está en la completa impunidad en Colombia.
07:04Y es muy difícil levantarse todos los días sabiendo que te pueden matar,
07:09sabiendo que tus victimarios están en la calle y aún así seguir adelante.
07:13Entonces esa sonrisa de hoy es la batería que necesito para los próximos años
07:18y espero que esa batería me alcance para seguir dando la pelea.
07:35¡Gracias por ver el video!
07:37¡Gracias por ver el video!
