Right now, people have a lot of fear. They prefer to be at home rather than going out.

Like the young people who used to come out to dance, even if it was just to come for a drink. They don't come out anymore because they are afraid that they will get caught. They prefer to just stay at home.

Well, I always pray to God that I don't have to close here and go back to work at the factory. The factories are difficult. The entire shift is standing in the same place. Every day I came back home with my shoulders in so much pain from lifting those big pieces of pork.

Oh my God, why wasn't I born here? Why didn't I go to school here to be able to speak English like white people? Because, I mean, if I knew how to speak English, I would have already eaten this country up if I had good English, right? Perhaps my daughter will have the opportunity to achieve her dream, her American dream, because she was born here. I tell her, you are already flying.

You are going to get what you want. She's going to be what we could not be.
