We shared this earlier, but it’s important to see the value of art in the healing process and in inspiring hope. We’d like to leave you tonight with this

Tremendo artículo del @nytimes sobre cómo los artistas puertorriqueños sacaron la cara por la isla después del huracán María. @charohenriquez #AUnAñoDeMaría https://t.co/WF7NDIEvUk

It's been a year since Hurricane Maria landed on Puerto Rico. @lilliamr wrote this essay for @ELLEmagazine on how it has affected her family and also her relationship to the island. Please read & share it.

@NPRinskeep @adrianflorido Thanks @NPR for reporting the tragic situation in PR during Maria, but most importantly, after... As Adrian said yesterday at #365Maria @cpipr conference, the after is more complicated given our history, politics, and relationship w/ USA. Keep reporting, it is very appreciated!

[Adriana Domínguez is not on X @VocesBlog]

I’ve donated a critique if you’re into that sort of thing and need an excuse to help the cause. :)

Today's difficult. But we fight. A project I'm involved with. ❤

Flags fly at half staff today in Puerto Rico, on this, the 1yr anniversary of Hurricane Maria’s catastrophic landfall on the island. Governor @ricardorossello announced that today is a day of mourning on the island. The official government death toll is 2,975.

Someone in Puerto Rico just told me: “Trying to forget that a year has passed already, but it’s impossible. The wounds are still fresh. We got through a lot, not so during the hurricane, but for months after. There’s a lot of #PTSD out there unattended.” #mariaanniversary

NPR News has been covering the storm and after from as soon as we could get journalists on the ground there.
Here is a look back at the last year.

The Puerto Rican tourism agency has been pushing for media to #covertheprogress in Punta Santiago. So we did. Here's what we found: mold, falling roofs, people living in garages and on the floor. https://t.co/e38hkPz9UW

Families in Puerto Rico are still dealing with the aftermath of #HurricaneMaria. Many are still grieving the loss of their loved ones — and many remain displaced. We have much to do to make sure our fellow Americans are able to recover from the devastation.

Today marks 1 year since #HurricaneMaria devastated #PuertoRico. Please read & share. This isn't over, especially for survivors like these. “There were days when I would cry in the morning when I woke up because I didn’t have a job," one survivor told me.
