@PhilipsNA your website wasn’t helpful and said to reach out on social media for help. I sent a PM on 11/19-no response. Should I just return my product?

You'd be hard-pressed to find people more resilient than Puerto Ricans

•In the last 2yrs:

Yes! "Apocalypse" does not mean a cataclysm to end all cataclysms - but an "uncovering." So to say that we are living in apocalyptic times means we are called to act on what has become un-unseeable, and make the world anew.

@JustineLeconteo LOVED the 2020 trends; you are always so spot on! 90s trends: acid washed denim, lace under holes in denim, body-suits, “french-rolled” pants and multiple socks (two colors one foot), shirts off one shoulder, neon colors, baggy sweat shirts 🙀💃🏻👗🎩👒🕶

What complicates broader investigations about racism and police brutality in Puerto Rico is a lack of data. The deptmt doesn’t track the race of victims of officer-involved homicides or excessive force complaints #SoJustPuertoRico #SaturdaySchool https://t.co/1RIxZvVEwM

Here’s another photo from inside taken by @JoaquinCastrotx, where we’re trying to comfort women trapped in cells.

This woman was telling me about her daughters who were taken from her - she doesn’t know where they’ve taken them.

We held & listened to them. They were distraught.
