Sophie Cruz is 6 years old, but, boy, she knows how to enthral a crowd.

During the Women's March on Washington, the uber-young immigration activist got on stage with her parents and younger sister and delivered a rousing speech.

She told the crowd she joined the demonstration to make "a chain of love to protect our families."

“Let us fight with love, faith and courage so that our families will not be destroyed,” Cruz said. “I also want to tell the children not to be afraid, because we are not alone. There are still many people that have their hearts filled with love. Let’s keep together and fight for the rights. God is with us.”

Cruz, who made headlines in 2015 by asking the Pope to support the protection of DAPA (Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents), finished her speech in Spanish with a chant of "Si se puede! Si se puede!"
