""I am Carolina Giraldo from Medellin, Colombia, and today I am the first Latina woman to headline Coachella. And I'm very happy and very proud about this, but at the same time, it feels late. It's been 27 years of this festival going on...Before me, there were so many great Latino artists that gave me the opportunity.""
""This about my Latinos who have been struggling in this country lately. We stand for them, I stand for my Latina community. I'm proud because this brings out the best of us, unity, resilience, a strong spirit. We don't do this because we want to take everyone out, we do this because we want everyone to feel welcome to our culture, to our music.""
