So while my parents were in America and embraced the principle of civil liberties, once at home in Venezuela, because of the social differences in economic classes, they did not practice those principles well, so I took up our servants’ cause and informed my parents that in following their Christian teaching and their experiences in The United States with the civil rights movement if they didn’t allow the servants to eat with us. Then I would eat in the kitchen with the servants. Justice was served; the servants ate with us at the table from that point on.
