Defending Puerto Rico’s protected land

  • The government of Puerto Rico has set aside land that’s supposed to be protected from urbanization. But that’s not stopping developers from buying it and seeking exceptions. Our natural resources and food sovereignty is at risk.

They can be drafted to war but hold no rights in congress, have no voice, are not allowed to vote, they pay large tariffs on their goods, we have use Puerto Rican land for nuclear testing, our government used Puerto Rican woman for human medical testing to sterilize them, for years we banned them from using their flag and speaking Spanish, and have basically held them hostage. They do not benefit from a lot of the tax payer dollar programs and there are massive tax breaks offered to rich American corporations who are buying up their native lands. They never wanted to be part of the US which is why they have voted against becoming a state many times. They want their freedom and autonomy back.

      I'm guessing for the same reason, important issues are not being plastered in the states, the News Media is control by the very rich, who are the ones buying the land, mostly people from the states. I have even seen videos that recommend they buy as much land as possible in PR, in channels run by "financial people" from the US. If people don't start protesting, they will end up not being able to even buy in house there.

      Hola Carlos🙋‍♀️
      I’m a Puertorriqueña born and bred in NYC - and like many here in the BELLY OF THE BEAST - NOT BY CHOICE!!
      I’m a PROUD Puertorriqueña, who loves her people!!
      I have visited PR all my life. Lived there twice; once for 2 years and once for 3 years,
      I have always WHOLLY supported - and ALWAYS WILL - the independence of PR!
      However, I could never FULLY understand why SO SO many Puertorriqueños there are overcome by colonialist mentality.
      Exacerbating this frustration is having faced racism in AmeriKKKa on SO many levels - to then visit Puerto Rico - and witness MY people treat all manner of Anglo foreigners better than they treat their own (who were born in AmeriKKKa through no fault of their own).
      Trust me when I say I’m politically conscious and aware enough to understand the “DYNAMICS” - and the “WHY” - of it; but it can still be frustrating.
      Haven gotten THAT off my chest:
      I LOVE ❤️!!! MY PEOPLE....
      I HAVE ALWAYS - and WILL ALWAYS - continue to support, and ADVOCATE for - Puerto Rico’s independence.
      I will ALSO - always support - those in the most influential and viable positions to help that vision be realized !!!!!
      I just wish Puertorriqueños would STOP being so submissive - and a little more discerning - regarding the influx of foreigners onto their island.
      I GET IT!!! It’s a highly complex and politically charged dynamic. So is the Israeli/Palestinian situation. Look at the fucked up state Palestine is in!!!! 🤷🏻‍♀️!!!!!
      I guess I’m just saying:
      Boricuas! Be a little more - dare I say it - ( yes, I dare say it ) DISCRIMINATING! If OTHERS can, so can WE!!
      Es decir: Tengan un poco más ORGULLO BORICUAS !!!!!!! PUNTO!!!! 🤷🏻‍♀️!!!!

    It's a shame that Puerto Rico is being sold out to developers, investors that have no regard for the Island and it's people. It seems that the leadership that governs the Island have slowly sold it piece by piece to the highest bidders who will ruin agriculture and it's natural resources. Unfortunately we as Puerto Ricans, have let this happen for our lack of knowledge of what is actually happening to our Island. Bianca your reporting has been educational as well as an eye opener for me. Count me in you choose to take further action. God Bless.

    On my mom's side I'm Puerto Rican n I moved here to Quebradillas bout 20yrs ago. I remember coming here when I was a little kid n there was areas that I played on cuz it was undeveloped land n I loved it so much. It made me so sad that PR has changed so much since I was a little kid. It's being turned into developed land that makes u only thing of the cities in the states. I can't stand it. I may not have been born here but I love PR so much n seeing it turned into a cemented city hurts n makes me angry. Stop destroying our beautiful land. There's more then enough room in the states. Go there n do that and leave PR alone. Stop destroying it. It made me so sad when my mother asked me to bring her to where she was born here n when we got there she cried cuz it has changed so much that she couldn't even find the area she was born in.

    This is heartwrenching. What to do and how to fight? Have you considered reaching out to law firms that fight this? Perhaps reaching out to the Puerto Rican Legal Defense and education Fund? Perhaps they can offer guidance or PR rights groups. Also reminds me of the Vieques land fight.. The local colleges students and professors can also probably help to rally people and activists who can get behind a movement needed to halt the sale. This is disheartening but serves as motivation to fight Great video to get people fired up enough to fight the fight.
