How do I get Americans to understand that the statehood movement in Puerto Rico is a right-wing mafia that promises all kinds of things and delivers none, but people exclusively get that view presented to them in school and local media so naturally they gain power?
Please please pleaseee read up on the repression of the Puerto Rican independence movement by the FBI and local authorities through COINTELPRO. To this day my abuela is scared I'll never get a job because I support Puerto Rican independence.
Gonna organize my various threads here for people who may not know about Puerto Rican history and the reality on the ground. #FreePuertoRico #PuertoRicoLibre https://twitter.com/jorgitormpr/status/1354519309461159946?s=19
