Parts of her essay are excerpted below as a letter to you.
Bolivia has the second highest percentage of people living in poverty in the Western Hemisphere.
Seventy percent of all Bolivians are impoverished, with the most severe poverty in rural areas, where 94 percent live in poverty. I had no idea what to expect.
