VANESSA HAUC: …. I want you to show a little bit because it's really harsh what you've done. You've set up a cage here with a tape recorder of the children's voices inside. 

LUCIA: Yes, umm, the voices inside these cages are precisely the cries of recent children who are still in those cages and it shows, this is exactly a replica of what you see at the border, mostly in what you see at what they call kennels. 

HAUC: So the minors are covered with the same paper they get as blankets, right?

LUCIA: Of course, because we saw, this is a city where it's very cold. Literally this is what it feels like in these cages to feel this cold and you see the children left here, so it's a pain to have to see that no one has yet been able to talk about immigration and how important it is to talk about it.

HAUC: Thank you very much Lucia for supporting the community and bringing this very important message. Well, I'll tell you, we will keep reporting all day on this election that's so important to our entire community.
