On January 19, Boriken Liberation Front sat with community to discuss the ongoing gentrification of Humboldt Park and those who have been complicit in it.
We highlighted the role that the non-profit industrial complex plays in normalizing and creating a safer environment (cont.)
for capitalism despite it's radical look and major movement figures who have since been turned into representatives of non-profit industrial complex.
Some of the Demands that the community came up with (cont.)
- Humanization of our houseless neighbors, not brutalization
- An end to peformance politics by Jessie Fuentes
BLF will be back for another conversation with the residents of Humboldt Park and how we can collectively resist the vultures feeding on our neighborhood!
(1/3)🔻Rally with the community on September 23 for the anniversary of the Grito De Lares!
September 23 1868, marks the first of two armed rebellions starting in the town of Lares where those who rebelled lifted the slogan that we carry to this day; “Libertad O Muerte!”
(2/3) Grito De Lares is a day for us to renew our fighting spirit, to remind of ourselves of what must be done, and for us to honor the martyrs who have given their life for the cause of the liberation of Puerto Rico! ☭
