What inspired Julia to become an activist?
How would you say your divorces were healthy? What made them healthy? What characterized them as so healthy?
Well, they were healthy for myself. I see. Yeah, I believe that women, you know, if the divorce is, if you're in an unhealthy, unhappy marriage, there's no reason why you should stay there. Yes. well, isn't it unusual for Latina women to have divorces? And I said, well, actually, in my family, it's a tradition. You know, my grandparents, my mother's mother and father were both were divorcees.
My mother was a divorcee and I'm a divorcee.
All right, good. So you owned it. You owned it. You embraced it proudly. And I think that that's great. There's no shame attached to it. So switching gears a little bit. at the very height of your activism, you had 11 children. Hey, what's the age span there, by the way?
Actually, they're 20 years apart.
Wow. Yeah. And by the way, what about grandchildren? Do you have a lot of grandchildren?
Yes, I have a lot of grandchildren. How many? Oh, you know what? I have grandchildren. My grandchildren and my great-grandchildren, and I now have one great-great-grandchild. Whoa, Jack, that's crazy. But you don't know how many? No. I have to sit down and count them.
That's a blessing to get to the point where you don't know. You have to sit down and get out a calculator to figure out how many grandchildren and great-grandchildren you have.
To answer your question, my first grandchild, her name is Deneen, Deneen Johns, and my daughter Juanita are the same age. Wow. One of my younger daughters at the same age. That's incredible.
