Yesterday, members of the Houston-area diaspora gathered in front of the offices of Quanta, a part of the Luma consortium, to remember Hurricane Maria’s passage, as well as to call for an end to the electricity problems in Puerto Rico. #HuracanMaria #PuebloUnido #Solidaridad

Updated flyer for my book launch. Nuestra Palabra will be selling the books. I’ll be improvising sound with @IRR2011 , Justin Rodriguez-Jones, Anthony Almendárez, & Juan J. García. Looking forward to seeing you all on Saturday, at 2PM, at @lawndalehouston

@RepRoKhanna Thank you!🇵🇷

[Power4PuertoRico @Pwr4PuertoRico]

You are right .@RepRoKhanna! Colonialism is always an injustice. Puerto Ricans have the right to decolonize and determine their future between independence, free association or annexation. Thank you for hearing us and speaking out! #PuertoRico

Boricuas Holding it Down inspires Puerto Ricans, including @IRR2011 & @associatesmayra, to organize around a pivotal question: Where do Black & brown folks go when they are pushed out of islands & cities they call home? Read their op-ed in @prismreports:

Wheatley accused the former governor of not consulting with local government officials before submitting his request, saying the move “harkens back to the heyday of colonial governors ruling over these Virgin Islands.”

🚨 San Juan is officially more expensive to live in than *NYC* (@usnews). Boricuas are sounding the alarm on American billionaires evading taxes and exploiting #PuertoRico. Congress - close the #Act22 tax loophole NOW! #EndAct22
