(November 2012)| The Hermanas Mirabal (Spanish pronunciation:
[erˈmanas miɾaˈβal], Mirabal Sisters) were four Dominican
political dissidents who opposed the dictatorship of Rafael
Trujillo. On November 25, 1960, three of the sisters were
assassinated. In 1999, the sisters received recognition by the
United Nations General Assembly, who designated November 25 as
the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against
Women in their honor. |Name||Common Name||Birthday||Date of
