Miriam Lewin

For example, when the World Cup came to Buenos Aires in 1978... They made Miriam write a piece about it. The event served as a source of national pride and an easy distraction from the allegations of abuses. The same abuses Miriam was a victim of. She could hear the roars of the crowd celebrating when Argentina won the final game.

Unbeknownst to most, she was hidden away in a prison cell near the stadium, listening from behind a wall just a few feet away from some celebrants. Miriam believes, after spending so much time as an unwilling participant in her government system, they eventually assumed she was a willing participant. That, after everything, she had somehow been reformed.

It's how she found herself having dinner with General Macera at a fancy restaurant. A dinner he invited her parents to. Miriam hadn't seen her parents in nearly two years. They didn't know any of what she'd been through because she hadn't told them. She hadn't been able to. Even sitting across from them, she knew that to speak ill of her abductors could risk her life or her family's safety.

She remembers her parents gifting General Macera a bottle of nice scotch and thanking him for keeping her safe. Miriam was eventually allowed to leave ESMA and move into an apartment, paid for at great cost by her parents. But even then, she wasn't free. She was kept under surveillance while continuing to work for General Macera's press bureau and other departments of the government.

Around this time, she fell in love with a man who was her fellow prisoner. She got pregnant, she married, and shortly after, she asked her repressors for permission to leave the country. They denied her request at first, and her son was born in Buenos Aires. But by the spring of 1981, they finally let her leave the country.

Miriam says she later found evidence that the military was surveilling her even in New York. She and her family remained in the United States until democratic elections were restored in Argentina in 1983. Later, the men who abducted her were put on trial for their crimes against humanity. Survivors of the detention centers were asked to testify in court. Many were afraid to.
