cecelia is not, but cecelia was going to have a role in getting fanny dressed and passing messages back and forth from different households about who is interested, who she likes, who she doesn't like, what such and such is wearing. so it's going to drive home the difference really profoundly between what the slaves life is like and what a free person's life is like. that will drive a wedge between any two people. and then there is always cecilia's uncertainty that is the married in the side of the house, that changes her life entirely, separate her mother. who knows if she has domestic service and going to sell her off. so it injects a lot of uncertainty and distressed into their relationship. >> wended the family take their trip to niagara falls? >> in 1846, fanny had spent the summer -- i'm sorry, the winter with relatives in washington d.c. since there was a wedding involved, a cousin of hers was getting married, it was a chance to see and be seen in washington society. so most likely, cecelia would've gone with her and then in april, her father, fanny's father, charles comes to d.c

it's interesting, because fanny is replied to cecelia's letters to you can get the gist of cecelia's letters from fanny. she goes, you ask about your mother, and she tells her, but then fanny's letter are very chatty, talk about the different people in her life and how they are doing and all this stuff. then she finally says you ask about your mother, she is still in her house, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. she longs to see you and all this stuff. so she gets the information. you get the gist but fanny treats it more like a regular correspondence where's there's a sense of urgency or desperation from cecelia side. she wants to, when she escaped she had to leave her mother and her brother behind. so she loses that family connection. that tears after. so she is trying to use those letters, that corresponds with fanny, that friendship if you will, to move through her to get back to her family and to maintain that connection. >> what was her life like it seems to be pretty good. she moved pretty quickly to the kind of conventional milestone with slaves have gained their freedom. she a

most likely, mary, who was cecelia's mother who was. ed -- who was purchased as a nurse maid. >> so they kind of grew up together? >> they did grow up together. the younger children, fanny's younger brother and sister, they died young in the mid 1830s. one right after the other. you know, you can imagine this big family of four and it goes to the family of -- big family of six that goes to a family of four. and all of the sudden fanny is no longer the big sister, she's the little girl again. and the person nearest to her age in the house is cecelia. so they really do grow up as companions and as probably something close to friends when they were younger. because at that point, fanny wouldn't have had a lot of slave mistress expectations. cecelia would have had chores, task to do, she would have kind of i guess nonessential personnel in terms of running the household. so it was -- it was a long, long-lived relationship, really cecelia's whole life began with fanny and most of fanny's life. >> when did the roles change? >> well, they star

>> prior to javier cecelia's son's murder and his activism, most sectors of the organized sector were not directly acting upon the drug war. the marcos, the national army of lib e.r.a. -- liberation, started putting out texts or letters, analyzing the drug war, and previous months, but really an organized social grassroots response was not taking place, and that's one of the things that has been positive about cecelia's activism, although now there's always a lot of risks of division on the left, and stories that one could go into, but since that several the unions called for a national mobilization on may 8th. the army of national liberation sent out a communique supporting that call and marched, some 20-30,000 members. but there is movement but at it only just starting very recently. >> my question, i guess you were talking obviously about the culture of fear and how families talk about going home and trying to talk to their family members and friends about and it everyone is scared to talk in general, even if their name isn't connected to them. so i'm wondering your experience with
