Happy pride month!

Here's a list of canon LGBTQIA+ characters of media i like

♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡

Dylan Lenivy + Ryan Erzahler — The Quarry

Dylan has a crush on Ryan and talks about it multiple times in the game. Ryan has two romantic interests, Dylan and Kaitlyn. Dylan was confirmed gay by a creator of the game and Ryans sexuality is not explicitly stated, but the two romantic interest options suggest he's bisexual. They can kiss as a dare in truth or dare.

♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡

Erin Keenan + Jamie Tiergan — The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me

Erin and Jamie are canonically sapphic. They both have mutual feelings for each other. In the game, they can flirt with each other, they can kiss each other and they can end up in a relationship by the end.

♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡

Bonnie Rivera — The Casting of Frank Stone

Bonnie is implied to be a lesbian, but is at least canonically sapphic. In the 1980 universe, Bonnie shows clear interest in another female character. They were supposed to have a kiss scene, but it was cut out of the game. In that scene, Bonnie also talks about how she started a band to get girls and had a girlfriend in that band. In the 2024 universe, Bonnie is married to a woman and they even have a daughter together.

♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡

Finn — Danger Force

In the scene above, Finn comes out as transgender and the term transgender is even explained perfectly about a minute later. This episode airs on tv with no additional issues.

♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡

Firestarter (Flint Bonpyre) + Pacesetter (Graham Ness Payser) — Toontown: Corporate Clash

The images above are canon, the creators have confirmed that they are in a relationship. In the first image, you can see Flint clearly wearing a pride pin while they are hanging out. The second image is hung up on Graham's room. The third image is a Happy Pride art post from the creators. The fourth image is a screenshot of the game, advertising their plushies being sold together during pride month last year to support Gay + Lesbian Youth Services, They both also have dialogue lines that mention each other.

♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡

Amity Blight + Luz Noceda — The Owl House

Amity and Luz get in a relationship together in the show. Both their sexualities have been confirmed by the creator, Amity is a lesbian and Luz is bisexual.

♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡

Lilith Clawthorne — The Owl House

Lilith is aroace. It was very implied during a livestream the creator made. In that livestream, she talks about how someone gave her a bouquet of spiders (would be flowers in the real world), but she was completely uninterested and says she has never been interested in things like that. In the show, she never shows interest in anyone romantically and she is happy without anyone else.

♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡

Shauna Shipman + Melissa — Yellowjackets

Sydney Novak — I Am Not Okay with This

Sydney is a bisexual in the comic, but her sexuality is not so clear in the Netflix series. She hooks up with her male friend, but realizes she does not have true feelings for him because she's still in love with her best friend Dina. She attempts to kiss Dina at a house party, which makes Dina end up confused. At the end of the first season, Dina and Sydney dance together at the school dance, implying their feelings are mutual.

♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡

Kaoru Kurita — Wonder Egg Priority

Kaoru is transgender. He wears a baseball cap to hide his long hair and his jacket is the same colors as the trans pride flag. Unfortunately, he is stuck in a girls-only world, but he says multiple times he is a boy during the episode.

This is the 2012 Summer Station ID of TV5. The Summer Station ID was themed "Iba Ka-Summer Ang Kapatid!".

The Summer Station ID theme song was written, produced and performed by Willie Revillame who is the DJ of TV5. Somehow, He did produce the 2011 Summer Station ID Theme Song which is themed “Kapatid, Summer Na, Sama Ka!”. The Summer Station ID features some extreme sports like racing, skateboarding, surfing, bicycling, rollerblading and skydiving.

The Summer Station ID also features the TV5 crew members like Luis Manzano, Matteo Guidicelli, DingDong Dantes, Enchong Dee, Rocco Nacino, Dennis Trillo, John Lloyd Cruz, Benjamin Alves, Johan Santos, Ivan Dorschner, JC de Vera, Martin Escudero, Gerald Anderson, Sef Cadayona, Edgar Allan Guzman, Vice Ganda, Willie Revillame, Boy Abunda, Mo Twister, Ivan Mayrina, Mark Salazar, Raffy Tima, Lourd de Veyra, Shawn Yao, Gilbert Remulla, Martin Andanar, Seph Ubalde, Atom Araullo, Alex Santos, Rhea Santos, Pinky Webb, Luchi Cruz-Valdez, Kris Aquino, Sarah Geronimo, Royce Cabrera, John Wayne Sace, Marky Cielo, Kit Thompson, Derek Ramsay, Rafael Rosell, Onemig Bondoc, Mark Herras, Simon Ibarra, Diether Ocampo, Derrick Monasterio, Lester Llansang, Coco Martin, Ahron Villena, Mikoy Morales, Fred Payawan, Carlo Aquino, Ken Chan, Paolo Serrano, CJ Muere, Renz Fernandez, Kokoy de Santos, Ruru Madrid, EJ Falcon, Yves Flores, Pekto, Empoy Marquez, Zoren Legaspi, Jiro Manio, Addy Raj, Sid Lucero, Xian Lim, Juancho Triviño, Jun Sabayton, Aga Muhlach, Jake Cuenca, Ramon Bautista, Randy Santiago, Diego Castro III, Baron Geisler, Betong Sumaya, Dominic Roque, Michael V., Allan K., Chuckie Dreyfus, Mark Anthony Fernandez, Tirso Cruz III, Wowie de Guzman, Sam Milby, Marco Alcaraz, Carl Cervantes, Hero Angeles, Gabby Eigenmann, Geoff Eigenmann, Ronwaldo Martin, Kristoffer Martin, Sandino Martin, Edu Manzano, Jericho Rosales, Neil Coleta, Daniel Fernando, Antonio Aquitania, Allen Dizon, Isko Moreno, Troy Montero, Jomari Yllana, Nash Aguas, Valeen Montenegro, Emman Abelda, Joshua Dionisio, Belle Mariano, Donny Pangilinan, Charlie Dizon, Jazz Ocampo, German Moreno, Shalala, Dagul, Arnold Clavio, Howie Severino, Gary Valenciano, Enzo Pineda, Marco Gumabao, Dion Ignacio, Jason Abalos, Enrique Gil, Liza Soberano, IC Mendoza, Jerald Napoles, Kim Chiu, Pauleen Luna, Louise de los Reyes, Maja Salvador, Lianne Valentin, Carmina Villaroel, Eugene Domingo, Nora Aunor, Ina Raymundo, Dina Bonnevie, Kathleen Hermosa, Candy Pangilinan, Bea Alonzo, Marian Rivera, Sheryl Cruz, Klea Pineda, Grace Lee, Kristine Hermosa, Angel Locsin, Ellen Adarna, Shaina Magdayao, Sanya Lopez, Heaven Peralejo, Jessie Mendiola, Ivana Alawi, Coleen Garcia, Dianne Medina, Kylie Versoza, RR Enriquez, Iya Villania, Cindy Miranda, Angelika dela Cruz, Andrea del Rosario, Sunshine Cruz, Princess Ryan, Arcee Muñoz, Ritz Azul, Alice Dixson, Tuesday Vargas, Eula Caballero, Enrico Cuenca, AJ Dee, Christian Bables, Vince Gamad, Jameson Blake, Paulo Avelino, Adrian Alandy, Lance Serrano, Pancho Magno, Korina Sanchez, Pia Arcangel, Connie Sison, including twin brothers Rodjun and Rayver Cruz, Julius Babao and his wife Tintin Bersola, Ogie Alcasid and his wife Regine Velasquez and The Fast and the Furious racers like Max McGrath, Mia Toretto, Letty Ortiz, Sean Boswell, Brian O’Connor, Tobey Marshall, Orange Julius, Slap Jack and Suki. But the Summer Station ID features the return of Flint Lockwood after the 2011 Summer Station ID of TV5 which is “Kapatid, Summer Na, Sama Ka!”. Luckily, Flint Lockwood is now driving the 2010 Dodge SRT Viper GTS in the 2010 video game Forza Horizon. But Flint Lockwood’s actor was Tom Holland, a Dutch born American actor and comedian who started his career at the age of 15 in 2007. He first appeared in the 2007 horror movie Land of the Dead from Warner Bros. Pictures, Skydance Productions, Dune Entertainment, Plan B Entertainment and Happy Madison Productions.

The Summer Station ID contains some commercials like when Luis Manzano, Matteo Guidicelli, DingDong Dantes, Enchong Dee, Rocco Nacino, Dennis Trillo, John Lloyd Cruz and Benjamin Alves go longboarding in San Francisco, California in the Rogin-E Commercial, Johan Santos surfing in Ocean Beach at San Francisco, California in the Fit N’ Right Commercial, Ivan Dorschner skateboarding in London, United Kingdom in the Enervon Commercial and Korina Sanchez, Pia Arcangel and Connie Sison racing downhill in San Francisco, California in the pH care Commercial featuring rock singer Gary Valenciano, DJ Willie Revillame, Master Boy Abunda, Emcee Mo Twister and the TV5 crew members skydiving in Dubai, United Arab Emirates in the Rebisco Extreme Commercial including the clips from the 2004 movie The Fast and the Furious 3 when Brian O’Connor in his 1998 Ferrari Enzo challenges to a race with his rivals Orange Julius, Slap Jack and Suki in their Japanese respective street racing cars like the RX-7, Supra and S2000 which appeared in the 2006 DreamWorks movie Cars 2, the 2008 movie The Fast and the Furious 4 when the World Grand Prix racers are starting their engines, the opening of the 2006 video game Hot Wheels: Beat That and the E3 trailer of the 2010 video game Forza Horizon where Tom Holland drives the yellow Dodge SRT Viper GTS.

However, This is also the second Summer Station ID to feature Hot Wheels cars after the first Summer Station ID of TV5 which is “Kapatid, Summer Na, Sama Ka!” in 2011. This is also the only Summer Station ID to feature all of the TV5 crew members but this was also the only Summer Station ID to feature Marky Cielo before his death in November 30, 2012. But according to Vice Ganda in the TV5 sitcom show Banana Split before the Summer Station ID was filmed, Luis Manzano, Matteo Guidicelli, DingDong Dantes, Enchong Dee, Rocco Nacino, Dennis Trillo, John Lloyd Cruz, Benjamin Alves, Johan Santos, Korina Sanchez, Pia Arcangel and Connie Sison were at San Francisco, California when they are having fun in the sun but Ivan Dorschner was at London, United Kingdom because it was his birthplace where he decides to go skateboarding and have fun in the sun. Somehow, the other crew members were at Dubai, United Arab Emirates as they are going extreme and having fun in the sun. But according to Coco Martin, Korina Sanchez, Pia Arcangel and Connie Sison were too sexy to skydive. When they skydive, Their underwear can be shown. Due to this, They wore jackets to prevent them from becoming too sexy as their dresses were sleeveless. Eventually, Korina Sanchez and Connie Sison were wearing their white pantyhoses and Pia Arcangel was wearing her black knee high socks to prevent them from revealing their underwear when they do stunts. Luckily, The Hot Wheels cars have turned to life-sized versions like in video games in the 2006 video game Hot Wheels: Beat That! where those racers drive those cars like in real life. But the clip where Luis Manzano, Matteo Guidicelli, DingDong Dantes, Enchong Dee, Rocco Nacino, Dennis Trillo, John Lloyd Cruz and Benjamin Alves go longboarding in San Francisco, California can be re-used in the future Summer Station IDs of TV5 including the future 2014 Summer Station ID of ABS-CBN which is "Basta't Ka-Summer Kita, Kapamilya!" and the future 2017 Summer Station ID of GMA which is “Mas Mainit ang PaGMAmahalan”. Eventually, This originated in the 2010 Summer Station ID of GMA which is “All-Stars and the Sun” where Kim Chiu, Kristine Hermosa, KC Concepcion, Meg Imperial, Liza Soberano and Lovely Abella go longboarding in San Francisco, California. Somehow, The clips are also re-used in the future 2014 Summer Station ID of TV5 which is "Pinoy Summer, Da Best 4 Eva!" where all of the TV5 crew members are going extreme for a big summer party around the world. But this was also the only Summer Station ID to feature some TV5 personalities speaking before they skydive like when JC de Vera said, “Talk about the first Summer Station ID to feature all of the TV5 crew members having fun in the sun! No drama or problems? We’re outta here!” Somehow, Gary Valenciano has said “I Love It! Rock N’Roll!” when skydiving with his bandmates Enzo Pineda, Marco Gumabao, Dion Ignacio and Jason Abalos but Gary Valenciano bumped into Arnold Clavio and Howie Severino who are a comedy duo from ABC-5. Howie Severino and Arnold Clavio are best friends But Howie Severino and Arnold Clavio signed a contract with RPN-9 in 2010 which is now known as CS/9 in 2011. In 2013, CS/9 will be changed to 9TV. Somehow, Arnold Clavio signed a contract to ABS-CBN in 2005. Eventually, Enrique Gil said “Hey! Wait for Us!” when skydiving with his love interest Liza Soberano but the couple bumped into IC Mendoza and Jerald Napoles when they are testing out the hang glider before they could jump off from the plane. Somehow, Paulo Avelino has said “Cannonball!” and Pancho Magno has said “OK, I Hate Skydiving, Later Hater!” as he was hanging similar to Enrico Cuenca. But the other TV5 crew members can be heard yelling as they are jumping out from a plane.

"War Against All Puerto Ricans"

Puerto Rico is back in the news.

Sorta.

That Other America breaches the US media consciousness every couple of years. The Bad President put it in the news by his horrific, racist failure to respond to Hurricane Maria:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/it-totally-belittled-the-moment-many-look-back-in-anger-at-trumps-tossing-of-paper-towels-in-puerto-rico/2018/09/13/8a3647d2-b77e-11e8-a2c5-3187f427e253_story.html

And the Good President put Puerto Rico in the news by sidelining its elected government because they had the temerity to stiff his buddies on Wall Street, just like GW Bush did to Flint when they crossed the same line:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/economy/obama-signs-law-to-rescue-puerto-ricos-economy/2016/06/30/882fbc7e-3ed7-11e6-84e8-1580c7db5275_story.html

The finance bros that Obama put in charge of the island turned it into an offshore Flint, starving its utilities in order to extract more debt payments to the finance sector. The ensuing neglect meant that when Maria hit, the power infrastructure collapsed, leaving the US citizens of Puerto Rico without electricity for three months.

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/12/29/us/puerto-rico-power-outage.html

Donald Trump couldn’t have murdered thousands of Puerto Ricans and immiserated millions more without Barack Obama’s help. But that’s unfair to both Trump and Obama: they were merely carrying on a centuries-long tradition stretching back to Teddy Roosevelt, a bedrock American heritage of racism, neglect, enslavement, torture, and extraction (so. much. extraction.).

Puerto Rico is back in the news. The island territory — where US citizens do not get to vote for the president nor send a voting representative to Congress — is planning a binding referendum on whether to become a US state, or whether to secede from the USA altogether.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/jul/20/puerto-rico-statehood-independent-free-association-debate

As it happens, I just became a US citizen. As a Californian, I am (nominally) protected by the US Constitution, and in a couple months I will get to vote for my Congressional rep — unlike millions of Puerto Ricans, who have been citizens for generations, but who are not entitled to equal protection under the law — as the Supreme Court just affirmed:

https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/21pdf/20-303_6khn.pdf

Days after I took my citizenship oath, I joined my family for a two-week holiday on Puerto Rico. I arrived with jumbled impressions of the island’s history, gleaned from the odd article, radio documentary and news article. By the time we left, I had a much more coherent understand of the centuries of systematic, ghastly fuckery that these United States of America had visited upon its “commonwealth” and what the stakes are for the referendum.

We started in Old San Juan, where we got oriented via Andy Rivera’s architectural tour, which introduced us to the 500 year history of the city and its colonial masters:

https://www.airbnb.com/experiences/174126

On the tour, I noticed the Librería Laberinto, a bookstore, and made a point of visiting it later that day:

https://librerialaberintopr.com/

That’s where I found Nelson A Denis’s incredible history of the island, War Against All Puerto Ricans, a brilliant, funny, enraging and masterful history of the failed Puerto Rican revolution of 1950, and its leader, the remarkable Pedro Albizu Campos:

https://waragainstallpuertoricans.com/the-book/

Denis is a Cuban/Puerto-Rican-American raised in New York City, whose Cuban-born father was kidnapped and deported to Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis, when the FBI indiscriminately shattered families on orders from Bobby Kennedy:

https://nelsondenis.wordpress.com/home/

Denis went on to go to Harvard, where, in 1977, he published a landmark work of historical scholarship in the Harvard Political Review, “The Curious Constitution of Puerto Rico.” From Harvard, Denis continued on to Yale, where he took a law degree — and continued his voracious study of the Puerto Rican revolution and its aftermath.

He conducted years of research — hundreds of FOIA requests, thousands of hours of interviews with the architects, partisans and eyewitnesses — he published his masterpiece, which weaves together the disparate narratives of all the actors in this tragicomedy to present a truth that is far, far stranger than fiction.

For generations, Puerto Rico was a classic imperial periphery, the place where eminent families sent their failsons for a second chance. The most rapacious corporations in American — along with the US military — established operations in PR and staffed them with a clown cavalcade of idiots and sadists, who, by dint of birth, were put in a position of power over the people of Puerto Rico.

Each of these men came to Puerto Rico to seek their fortune, and, by and large, they found it — extracted it, rather, from the sweat and blood of Puerto Ricans. They committed gaffes, scams and atrocities and then went back to the mainland, where they were celebrated.

Take Dr Cornelius Rhoads, an eminent physician whose tenure as an island hospital administrator was cut short when his maid discovered a letter he’d written to a mainland colleague in which he railed against Puerto Ricans in a vicious, racist tirade, then gloated about having murdered several of his Puerto Rican patients as part of a genocidal campaign to rid the island of its islanders:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornelius_P._Rhoads

Despite having admitted to a string of racially motivated murders, Rhoads was celebrated on his return. He became an army doctor, developed chemical weapons, and went on to appear on the cover of Time magazine as a great hero.

In some ways, it’s not surprising that Rhoads would be lionized for murdering Puerto Ricans. After all, a legion of white doctors participated in the forced sterilization of Puerto Rican women from the 1930s to the 1970s, ultimately sterlizing a third of the island’s women:

https://www.panoramas.pitt.edu/health-and-society/dark-history-forced-sterilization-latina-women

I’d heard of Rhoads, but not of the many other failsons whose lives Denis chronicles — the governor who arrived on the island with a plan to remake it as an animal training center where nightingales would learn to sing “The Stars and Stripes Forever” for sale to patriotic Texans at $50 a pop. I also didn’t know about the army — literal and figurative — of FBI agents who employed a vast network of informants to produce detailed, paranoid dossiers on the people of the island.

More importantly, I didn’t know about the Puerto Ricans who are the true heroes of this tale, like Albizu, orphaned as a small boy following his mother’s suicide, who raised himself, became a prodigy, attended Harvard, and excelled at everything he did. Albizu — brilliant, driven, committed — refused offers to clerk for the Supreme Court or work for large American corporations, and instead returned to Puerto Rico to work as a poor peoples’ lawyer. He went on to lead the revolutionary independence movement, and was tortured to death by America in return.

Albizu is just one of the many larger-than-life, tragic heroes of Denis’s tale: there’s Juan Emilio Viguié, a self-taught virtuoso filmmaker who left the island to work as the embedded documentarian for Pancho Villa’s army, returned home, and became the Zapruder of the Ponce massacre, a grisly atrocity whose architects — more failsons from the mainland — were never held to account for.

There’s also Vidal Santiago Díaz — a barber turned gunrunner, who supplied the independence movement with arms and a secret meeting place, all under the nose of the FBI, who eventually helped the island police kidnap him and subject him to barbaric torture. On his release, Díaz returned to his barbershop, recovered his cached weapons, and held off thirty armed men singlehandedly from within the shop, for hours, as the nation listened in to live, play-by-play radio reporting. Eventually, they gassed Díaz, entered his shop, and shot him in the head. They dragged him into the street for the news-crews to photograph, but he surprised them by reviving and denouncing the police. He was taken to a cell to die, but not before he recounted his side of the storied, fabled battle.

These are the protagonists of Denis’s narrative, with the failsons serving as foils, villains, and color — like Waller Booth, a spy with the OSS (forerunner to the CIA) who came to the island to spy on nationalists. He set up an after-hours club themed after his favorite movie, Casablanca, which he screened on repeat in a private room in the club. Nationalists would sit and watch the movie every night, in the manner of Rocky Horror, and shout witty lines at the screen: “We’ll always have the FBI!” and “Round up the usual Nationalists!”

Denis builds up his story one character or event at a time, retelling the tale from different angles, weaving together the perspectives of his people over and over, using them to illuminate different aspects of the degradation and pillaging of Puerto Rico and the indomitable spirit of its people. It is in this fashion, for example, that Denis dissects — and demolishes — the 1917 law that Congress passed in the name of Puerto Rican self-determination, but which really only served to make Puerto Ricans subject to the draft.

So it goes, in Denis’s history: an American conglomerate or politician comes up with a new and depraved way to profit from the islanders, and they resist — against all odds, in the face of violent repression. The revolution itself — which included an attempt on Truman’s life — plays out with the drama of a war movie.

Apart from their Puerto Ricanness, the protagonists of this story would make great American folkloric heroes, Horatio Algers who came from humble beginnings, succeeded through thrift, tireless striving and indomitable will, devoted themselves to justice, and stood up to bullies — and paid with their lives for a righteous cause.

But because the bullies they stood up to were operating as agents of America, they are forgotten. Not even reviled — erased. On the American mainland, the Puerto Rican revolution isn’t even a footnote. Indeed, Puerto Rico itself is often forgotten by America, despite the many sons and daughters of the island who have fought for its military. Remember Maria, when Trump and his supporters spoke of Puerto Ricans as foreigners whose “country” was insufficiently grateful for “American charity?”

But this history is not forgotten in Puerto Rico. How could it be? After all, the disappearances and torture — which included mad science experiments in which political prisoners were irradiated until they perished — did not take place in some distant past. As Denis’s end-notes demonstrate, many of the people who witnessed these extraordinary events are still alive, and Denis’s work is based on corroborated eyewitness testimony, backed by FOIAed documents.

Denis’s book was indispensable as we traveled around this beautiful, marvelous island, because it is also a small island, and every place we visited had a cameo in the book: the movie theater we took the kids to see Thor at was in a town that once housed a nightmare gulag where Nationalists were electrocuted, starved and shot.

By superimposing the crimes of empire over the landscape, we were able to get some context for the flags, the graffiti, and the news about the looming referendum.

One day in a taxi, the driver talked to us about the referendum: I mentioned that I had just become a US citizen and for my sake, I would like Puerto Rico to become a state and gain two senators, but for their sake, it seemed that independence would be a better deal.

She agreed vigorously, and spoke of the crypto-bros and pharma companies that descended on the island with the idea of turning it into a kind of hyper-Delaware, an onshore-offshore regulation and tax haven, just as the sugar-barons and other failsons of the mainland had done for more than a century.

Visiting Puerto Rico was the perfect commemoration of my US citizenship — a chance to eat some of America’s best food, listen to some of its greatest music, see its most beautiful national forest, meet some of its friendliest people, see some of its most beautiful art — and learn of some of its most vicious crimes. Puerto Rico is the only place where the US military bombed US citizens, but, of course, the US military has bombed many, many places.

The contradictory currents that pull at America are all in sharp relief on the island. It has served as a lab for so many of America’s worst ideas, and also as a proving ground for the resistance to those ideas.

So much has happened since 2015 when this book was published — and so much of what has happened is an echo of what went before. Denis’s ability to describe the bravery and spirit of those who fight for independence, self-determination and dignity rivals greats like Howard Zinn. Combine that skill with Denis’s personal connection to the material — and the access it gave him to the buried histories of America’s sins — and you get a high-speed masterclass on the choice facing Puerto Ricans today.

Bombshell Buick - 1952 Super Rivera Once you’ve seen this on the dry lakes or the salt flats, it is hard to forget. Maybe it’s the conspicuous styling, or perhaps it’s because a battleship-size ’50s sedan wasn’t meant to go 165 mph. And who in their right mind would select a Buick Straight-8 as their race engine of choice? Jeff Brock, that’s who! He’s a sculptor from Santa Fe, New Mexico, and he knew nothing about Bonneville when he decided to build a land-speed racer. Growing up in the automotive town of Flint, Michigan, Jeff Brock cut his teeth in his dad’s one-man machine shop behind their house. Of the five Brock children, Jeff was the one who tagged along with his father, Doug, as he raced flathead Fords and GMC six-cylinders at the Auto City Speedway circle track. He vividly recalls as a kid riding in the truck to motorcycle scrambles, where his dad raced for Flint Indian Sales. Looking at the Buick, it’s easy to see the influence of flat-track motorcycle racing, where less is always more. The XO class at Bonneville and El Mirage is perfect for the ’52 Buick, as it is open to pre-’59 inline-six and eight-cylinder engines and non-Ford flathead V8s. The body class for the Buick is GCC, for Gas Competition Coupe. This class allows chopping the roof, adding a bellypan, and cowl-forward streamlining. The two designations come together in XO/GCC, which is then applied to the rear quarter-panel. The makeshift ‘F’ over the ‘G’ in these photos confirms that racers are always considering different class changes (from Gas to Fuel, in this case). Obviously, Jeff Brock has done his homework, establishing five impressive Bonneville records in the XO/GCC class with a best of 165.380 mph at the recent World Finals. Feats like this can only be attained with support from an understanding wife, family, friends, and friends’ friends. One of the major players in helping bump the SCTA record an impressive 35 mph is crew chief Sergio Juarez from Hernandez, New Mexico. More than just the crew chief, Sergio is often the entire crew.
