00:00I was born in Paris when I was 22 years old, 10 years before the legalization.
00:06It was angrily, evidently, but the decision for me was clear.
00:11It was not the moment. I could not allow this because that Colombian man with whom I was in Paris
00:22had this moment to return to Colombia,
00:25he had to go back to Colombia,
00:27we had to go back to Colombia,
00:31but we hadn't decided yet if I would go with him at this moment,
00:36and he married me.
00:38It was very nice because he was going to feel that he was forced to not go away.
00:42So, for me, there were no five minutes of doubt.
00:47But it was an event that I had to speak for a long time,
00:51for many years.
00:53And finally, I said to myself,
00:56but why did I say it so late?
00:58Why didn't I say that before?
01:00So, it was an enormous relief.
01:03I didn't have any sense of that or anything.
01:05For me, no.
01:06I was, I remember, a very liberal family.
01:09If there was something I understood when I was born,
01:12it was that I would never have to go back.
01:13I would do everything.
01:15So, I would bring all the antioxidants that can be used.
01:18I would bring two caras at the same time.
01:20I would say, no, because it's a violence on your body.
01:22It's a violence on every level, on every level,
01:25even though I'm absolutely in favor of the abortion.
01:28But I recognize that it's a violence.
01:30I was not a feminist in France.
01:32One is not a feminist.
01:33One is a feminist.
01:35One is a feminist.
01:36After having lived this environment of the 60s,
01:39of the contraculture and all that in Paris,
01:41I arrived to Colombia and I found women calm,
01:44and I found women calm.
01:46I don't find women, to tell you the truth.
01:48I found mothers.
01:48In the 70s, 80s,
01:50first of all,
01:51there were many policies of law,
01:55before Monica Roa.
01:56There were eight policies of law
01:58that were very quickly archived by a congress that was still...
02:03If the congress is still very good,
02:05I don't tell you.
02:08however,
02:09during this time,
02:11the social movement was born,
02:13as the social movement,
02:15from the 70s,
02:17from the 70s,
02:17appear in this country.
02:19Until,
02:20something that was very important,
02:21was the new Constitutional Carta.
02:24So,
02:25all that makes,
02:26if you want,
02:27there is,
02:28in some way,
02:31a borderline,
02:32a borderline,
02:33a borderline,
02:33a borderline,
02:34when Monica Roa comes.
02:35Obviously,
02:36the sentence is a victory for the women.
02:40Especially,
02:41it's a moment in which we have a constitutional court very liberal.
02:45What we gave the sentence is something
02:47that we could not believe ourselves.
02:50It didn't put weeks of restation.
02:52It's open.
02:53It can be abortion in this country,
02:55within the three causes,
02:57a week,
02:57with seven months.
02:59The goal that we have to take for these events of May is,
03:04it's a matter.
03:06Today,
03:08abortion is a right.
03:09And that's very important,
03:11because,
03:11really,
03:12many women in this country
03:13still don't know the sentence,
03:16they don't know what meaning the sentence,
03:18they don't know that they don't know that they're a right
03:20in those three causes.
03:22The state,
03:22it's lamentable,
03:23the state that didn't do its job.
03:25The state that didn't do their job,
03:26the state doesn't do the job to inform
03:28and have an pedagogy for it,
03:30in the case of all.
03:30I also defend the children, I defend the life, I defend the children, but I defend not any life, I
03:37defend a human life, dignified.
03:39The children, at birth, have the right to have been desired and loved.
03:45That will create a better place to grow.
03:50I am not pro-abortionist, I am pro-abortionist, pro-choice, pro-experience.
03:57For women to decide, absolutely.
04:00And for women to decide, there must be legalization of abortion.
04:05But a woman who knows that her fetus is mal formed and decides to have it,
04:11it's her decision.
