Maria Elena Gaitan breaks down stereotypes of the "docile" Latina. She speaks of the responsibility of educating, role of women in el movimiento, immigrants, CASA, and sexual exploitation. She explains that they are not trying to build a separatist movement. Political and economic crisis in Mexico creates problems for Mexican migrants that come to the United States; mujeres deal with the INS under stressful conditions and are often sexually and physically abused. She speaks specifically of the Sisters from Texas Raza Unida Party. Some women wanted a Caucus, and others felt there was no need for it. "It is up to us to educate each other. With out further communication there will only be further division. Out of 16 States, 10 are represented. The fact that we sat down (as women) was important, so we could relate to each other."
