It’s #September23 #ElGritoDeLares the day #PuertoRico fought against Spanish colonial rule in 1868 led by #Betances and a day that led to the #abolition of #slavery in Puerto Rico… • It’s also the day that the #FBI chose to assassinate #FilibertoOjedaRios who was a #PuertoRican #freedomfighter #fighting for a #FreePuertoRico and was an FBI #topten fugitive… The FBI shot and wounded him@in his home and rather than attend to his wounds left him to bleed out over 24 hours… • While on the run in Puerto Rico #Filiberto gave interviews on radio, TV, wrote newspaper articles to infuriate the FBI and to show Puerto Rican’s that US law enforcement was not all powerful… The FBI couldn’t find Filiberto for 15 years on an island 35 miles wide by 100 miles long… • We @audiovisualterrorism took a TV interview from 1990 that Filiberto did while on the run and translated it into English so folks could see what a brilliant mind he had… Check the link… • #PuertoRicoLibre #IndpendenceNow #Machetero #EPB #LosMacheteros #FALN #vagabond #AudioVisualTerrorism https://www.instagram.com/p/CUKvfomLczo/?utm_medium=tumblr

With today being the 148th anniversary of El Grito de Lares I decided to do an extra #hispanicheritagemonthspotlight today. My drawing of Ramón Emeterio Betances is a #fanartfriday piece by the @vgbnd Ramón Emeterio Betances y Alacán (April 8, 1827 – September 16, 1898) was a Puerto Rican nationalist. He was the primary leader of the Grito de Lares revolution and is considered to be the father of the Puerto Rican independence movement. The "Grito de Lares" is Puerto Rico's first and only cry for Independence. On September 23, 1868 between 600 to 1000 men revolted for Independence from Spain. Of the arrested most were innocent jíbaros; their only guilt was being passive victims of the political regime. The men were poorly armed without aid, protection or training. The revolt which was planned for September 29th began instead on the 23rd as a result of betrayal. Within 24 hours the revolt, which was twelve years in the planning, was defeated by the Spanish government. The revolt was not a total loss. Shortly after the revolt Spain gave the Island many liberal reforms. It extended to Puerto Rico some of the liberal constitution that it had allowed during the war in Spanish America. Puerto Rico received provincial status and Spanish Citizenship was granted to the criollos. Some political reforms granted were allowing Boricuas to participate in special elections and to organize themselves into officially recognized political parties. Abolition of slavery began slowly in 1869 and was completed in 1873 giving freedom to some thirty two thousand slaves. (In 1827 there were approximately four times the number of free Africans in Puerto Rico than slaves. Partly due to the creole's distaste for slavery, often freeing their own slaves.) The libreta system was also canceled during the same year. Some of these concessions were canceled or changed later on but nevertheless the insurrection was fruitful and resulted in an improved lifestyle for the Puerto Ricans…. Until the United States gained control. #hispanicheritagemonth #elgritodelares #ramonemeteriobetances #puertorico #boricua #despiertaboricua

Many many thanks to Dr. Drum and #BombaYo for supporting our #ElGritoDeLares speakout in #Kingsbridge and sharing the power of Bomba y Plena, two traditional Puerto Rican drum-based music styles that descend from enslaved Africans on the island. It is the rhythm of Africa played through Afro-Boricua hands and spirits. Dr. Drum really came through for us, without him and his drum partner the action wouldn't have been as powerful as it was. Support #DrDrum and #BombaYo in the #Bronx!! Viva #PuertoRico libre! #musicispower #peoplepower

“Puerto Rico has a history that is very heroic and prolific. Naturally, as a colony, there exists a history of double interpretation; the colony, and the history of the anti-colonial struggle. In reality, the colonial history does not apply to us. It is more fitting for the colonizer. Ours, the only one, is the anti-colonial history because it is the history of our native people who survived and are in constant battle to defeat the powerful colonial forces. It is the history of puertorriqueñidad.” – Filiberto Ojeda Ríos #ElGritoDeLares

"El Grito de Lares" is Puerto Rico's first and only cry for Independence. On September 23, 1868 between 600 to 1000 men, mostly Puerto Rican born and from the west of the Island, revolted for Independence from Spain. #lastcolony #elgritodelares #jibaro #taino
