It’s been nearly a year since 53 migrants died in the back of a tractor-trailer on San Antonio’s Southwest Side. Their lives have been honored in a makeshift memorial.
Caballero spoke with us over the phone but wasn’t comfortable showing her face as she is seeking asylum in another country.Over the past 12 months, Caballero has shared her children’s stories, dreams, and plans for a new life with Sandragrace Martinez.
Martinez has made it her mission to learn about all 53 lives lost and write about them in a book, sharing their stories with their families. The crosses on the books and along Quintana Road symbolize the lives ended by the oppressive heat and desperation for a new life.
