The Real Reason America Keeps Puerto Rico Poor
America knows exactly what the Jones act has done and its time for it to end. Either give Puerto Rico Statehood or Economic Freedom. enough of this dis-infranchisement for millions. Taxation should Include Representation

"...I'm not trying to trick anyone right now. We're not fighting right now." In Milo's mind it wasn't the time to be deceptive right now, and had no reason to be deceptive. He looked curiously at the burning cigarette. He did like how Rico wasn't littering.
"No thank you. You know...Smoking can cause all sorts of adverse health effects such as, but not limited to; differences in tasting and smelling abilities, lower lung capacity, cancers of various kinds including mouth, throat, and lung cancers, stroke, heart disease, constricts arteries, high blood pressure, COPD which is chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, emphysema, bronchitis, possible vision problems..." He's just going to rattle on and on about it like fucking Siri.
...is there anything that’s worth more?
The grass was soft, lush green like a carpet. The young leaves in the towering treetops provided a natural canopy, though not as much shade as they would in a month or so, sunlight beaming through like stained glass. Birdsong carried on a light breeze, the babbling of the creek in the near distance creating a soft white noise, just audible. Rico lay in the middle of it all, hands tucked behind his head, eyes closed. His expression, for once, was one of gentle peace. He was at a high point in his life- he had more people who cared for him than he ever had before. Friends. Found family. The new spring grass he was laying on was cool, but as soft as the vision of safe feathers he’d had. Spring, huh. A time where cold, static death was defeated by the rising of warm, new life. Sure, that usually meant leaves and flowers and grass and baby animals. But Rico could feel it within himself as well. That desire he’d grown so intimately familiar with, that constant pleading to some degree for blessed, eternal oblivion… it wasn’t there. He really, truly wanted to be alive.

Poor People’s Art: A (Short) Visual History of Poverty in the United States at USF Contemporary Art Museum in Tampa uses installations and artworks to tell the story of, and expand perspectives on, The Poor People’s Campaign- from its origins in the late 1960s to the present day form, as well as comment on poverty and other social issues. Both educational and engaging, it shows that despite long struggles and some progress, we are still very far from much needed social change, especially in regards to poverty.
The museum also produced a free full color, 48 page workbook that you can pick up there or download as a PDF that can be downloaded from their website.
From the gallery’s website-
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is well known for his “I Have a Dream” speech, yet much less emphasis is placed on his campaign to seek justice for America’s poor, “The Poor People’s Campaign.” This was a multi-cultural, multi-faith, multi-racial movement aimed at uniting poor people and their allies to demand an end to poverty and inequality. Fifty-three years after Dr. King’s death, the Reverend William Barber II launched a contemporary push to fulfill MLK’s ambitious brief — one that calls for a “revolution of values” that unites poor and impacted communities across the country. The exhibition Poor People’s Art: A (Short) Visual History of Poverty in the United States represents a visual response to Dr. King’s “last great dream” as well as Reverend Barber’s recent “National Call for Moral Revival.”
With artworks spanning more than 50 years, the exhibition is divided into two parts: Resurrection (1968-1994) and Revival (1995-2022). Resurrection includes photographs, paintings, prints, videos, sculptures, books, and ephemera made by a radically inclusive company of American artists, from Jill Freedman’s photographs of Resurrection City, the tent enclave that King’s followers erected on the National Mall in 1968, to John Ahearns’ plaster cast sculpture Luis Fuentes, South Bronx (1979). Revival offers contemporary engagement across a range of approaches, materials, and points of view. Conceived in a declared opposition to poverty, racism, militarism, environmental destruction, health inequities, and other interlocking injustices, this exhibition shows how artists in the US have visualized poverty and its myriad knock-on effects since 1968. Participating artists include John Ahearn, Nina Berman, Martha De la Cruz, Jill Freedman, Rico Gatson, Mark Thomas Gibson, Corita Kent, Jason Lazarus, Miguel Luciano, Hiram Maristany, Narsiso Martinez, Adrian Piper, Robert Rauschenberg, Rodrigo Valenzuela, William Villalongo & Shraddha Ramani, and Marie Watt.
From the museum’s wall plaque about the images from the artists above-
A multimedia visual artist whose work explores themes of history, popular culture, and social justice, Miguel Luciano revisits the history of the Young Lords, a revolutionary group of young Puerto Rican activists who organized for social justice in their communities beginning in the late 1960s. Luciano’s first contribution to Poor People’s Art is a vinyl banner from the public art project Mapping Resistance: The Young Lords in El Barrio (2019), a collaboration with artist Hiram Maristany. It features the photograph “Young Lords Member with Pa’lante Newspaper (1970)” by Maristany, who was the official photographer of the Young Lords and a founding member of the New York chapter. This banner, along with nine other enlarged Maristany photographs, were installed throughout East Harlem at the same locations where their history occurred 50 years prior.
Luciano’s second contribution to Poor People’s Art is the sculpture The People’s Pulpit (2022), a repurposed vintage pulpit from the First Spanish Methodist Church in East Harlem. The Young Lords famously took over the church in 1969 and renamed it “The People’s Church”; they hosted free breakfast programs, clothing drives, health screenings, and other community services there. In this exhibition, The People’s Pulpit features an historic recording of Nuyorican poet Pedro Pietri reciting the celebrated poem Puerto Rican Obituary during the Young Lord’s takeover of The People’s Church.
The central sculpture in the second photo-
Afro-Taino artist Martha De la Cruz fashioned her sculptural installation Techo de sin (Roof of Without), 2021, from stolen, scavenged and donated materials found in Southwest Florida. According to the artist, “Florida is home to a large population of Latin American migrants who have ended up in the US largely due to economic pressures, exploitation and veins of power etched by Europe and the US.” Her powerful work deals with the results of this disjunction and the “symptoms thereabouts (e.g. houselessness, fugitiv-ity, government corruption, and income disparity, etc.).” According to De la Cruz, the word “sin” is a common Dominican mispronunciation for the word “zinc.” The sculpture is animated by a single light bulb that turns on for just ten minutes a day.
From the wall plaque about the Lazarus installation (structure in the 3th, 5th and 6th photos)-
Jason Lazarus’s sculptural installation Resurrection City/Poor People’s Campaign: A National call for Moral Revival/A Third Reconstruction (2023) is anchored in the artist’s historical research and several key photographs of Resurrection City. A tent-like shelter inspired by the temporary residences that populated the 1968 mass protest, the interactive sculpture contains simple sleeping quarters and a curated library filled with physical literature and ephemera centered on both the 1968 Poor People’s Campaign and the 2018 Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival, co-led by Rev. Dr.William Barber and Rev. Dr. Liz Theoharis.
The library allows for audiences to trace, listen, and talk about the history of advocating for the poor, from 1865 to the present. Additionally, the artist provides a custom transcription (and a QR hyperlink) to Barber’s 49-minute address on the syndicated radio show “The Breakfast Club” in which he carefully outlines his powerful vision for how we might address poverty going forward.
About Jill Freedman’s photograph above-
In the spring of 1968, the talented young street photographer Jill Freedman quit her day job as a copywriter in New York City to join the Poor People’s March on Washington. Freedman lived in Resurrection City for the entire six weeks of the encampment’s existence, photographing its residents as they rallied, made speeches, protested in front of government buildings, confronted police, built makeshift kitchens, organized clothing swaps, and dealt with flooding, petty crime, and illness. One of the most important postwar documentarians, and one of the few women photographers of the era, Freedman captured it all. Freedman’s 2017 book, Resurrection City, 1968-from which this exhibition draws a dozen powerful images-showcases the photographs that she made as a participant in the original Poor People’s Campaign. In multiple ways, Freedman’s images are the sympathetic perch upon much of which much of the present exhibition loosely hangs.
This exhibition closes 3/4/23.

"A ideologia do controle populacional é simplesmente uma combinação de dois fatos: (i) as pessoas produzem a riqueza econômica e o poder militar; (ii) os abastados têm famílias menores. Como bons darwinistas eles [os ricos] perceberam que a população com a maior taxa de fertilidade iria finalmente substituir a população com a menor taxa. A partir dessa percepção atemorizante nasceu a ideia do controle populacional."

Yes, exactly!!!
Israel is a literal nuclear power, armed by the western world to do what colonizers have done for centuries: commit genocide.
Semantics about how indigenous peoples organize and resist During A Genocide does nothing to help liberate them, and actually only empowers the occupiers to keep us divided on who the real villains are.
Biden did not call for a permanent ceasefire. He called for Israel to “put more effort into protecting civilians and aid workers.” He did not give any specific steps as to how, nor did he specify what the repercussions would be if Israel failed to meet those standards. We have been here before.
#my family is literally scattered throughout the world because of colonization#despite having all been born on Puerto Rico and growing up on the same street#the US is dependent on keeping Puerto Ricans divided on who is to blame for our oppression so we don’t unite and overcome them#there’s a place to talk about nationally specific poor leadership but over the resistance is never one of them

Things the Biden-Harris Administration Did This Week #37
Oct 4-11 2024
President Biden announced a new EPA rule that will require all lead pipes in America's drinking water systems to be replace with-in 10 years. This builds on the $15 billion the Biden-Harris Administration has already invested in replacing lead pipes nation wide. The administration's focus on this issue has allowed local governments to greatly execrate their lead pipe replacement plans, before Biden took office the city of Milwaukee's timeline for replacing its lead pipes was 60 years, they're now on track to do it in 10. The EPA says there's no safe level of lead in the human body.
Vice President Harris announced she plans to expand Medicare to cover home health care. Currently those who need long term care, are covered by Medicaid, the health program for the poor so have to spend all their savings before they can qualify. This change would allow more seniors to stay in their homes and offer support to caregiving family members. Medicare also covers the disabled thus proving a game changer for the disabled Americans and their families. The Vice President also endorsed expanding Medicare to cover the costs of hearing and vision care.
Medicare released a preliminary list of 101 generic drugs which it would cover that would cost no more than $2 for a month for enrollees. People have long lobbied to allow Medicare to pay for generic drugs which has been resisted by drug companies. Thanks to President Biden's Inflation Reduction Act, and in line with a Biden Executive Order Medicare is now working on bring low cost generic drugs to seniors. The list targets some of the most common prescriptions thus will bring savings to the most people.
Domestic Policy Advisor Neera Tanden announced that the Biden-Harris Administration had blown past its goal of hiring 250,000 student support staff for 2024. The joint effort by the Department of Education, AmeriCorps and Everyone Graduates Center managed to hire 320,000 tutors, mentors, student success coaches, postsecondary transition coaches, and student support coordinators nationwide, its goal for the end of 2025.
The Department of Housing and Urban Development announced $420 million to help get rid of lead paint and other lead hazards from homes. HUD estimates that over 3 million households that have children under the age of 6 live with lead hazards. HUDs grants will go to all 50 states, DC, and Puerto Rico with particular focus on low income housing.

One time a guy wanted me to tattoo the Gadsden snake on him. He was a Puerto Rican guy with family in Puerto Rico and it was a few months after the hurricane decimated the island (I think it was hurricane Maria). Told him, “holy shit, I hope your family is okay after that hurricane!”
He said “oh yeah my family is fine, they lived in the nice area and the hurricane didn’t really affect them. Most of the people who died were just poor people anyway.”
Anyway, fuck libertarians lmao
#libertarianism#socialism#puerto Rico#capitalism#politics#AAAHHH#as if tattooing that dumbshit little snake wasn’t bad enough#this dude was in the military too#everyone says you need to give members of the military respect no matter what#but I do not believe that shit#how can you truly defend your country if you’re SO fucking okay with watching poor ppl die#you don’t give a shit about ur country bro

He blushed brightly at the almost uttered compliment and just got up from his loafed position. Well...he did think that Rico was rather cute himself. Plus he looked very fluffy with that short hair of his. Rudolf wanted to ruffle it, but wouldn't because that would be....a bit odd. He didn't know if Rico would be comfortable with it.
"O-Okay.." He followed him, looking forward to seeing what kind of place he stayed in. He was expecting a bit rugged, but still pretty nice.
"Oi! The jerky I made outta that big ol' buck I bagged the other day's all done. Came out crackin' good if I say so meself. Want some?" Grinning crookedly, Rico holds the bag out, blissfully unaware that his friend's been through an... interesting time. Or rather, times. Tilting his head, he frowned. "...wot's with the getup? Y'alroight?"
He looked over towards the sniper with wide fearful eyes, shaking just a little bit like a frightened dog. The jerky though, it was very tempting. The bird man sloooowly inches over, ready to run if necessary, even fly. He felt that if he want slow enough the other wouldn't notice him.

Can you please do after care where gavi was a little bit too rough on the reader but after he takes care of her<333
Ilysm
His turn
You woke up with unimaginable sores from your hips all the way down your legs. Last night was certainly something else, but it left you a lot less capable to properly do something today.
"Mierda!" you groaned trying to move your legs that ached and Pablo stirred waking up himself and smirking towards your gorgeous face.
"Good morning, nena.." his morning voice was you sure kryptonite as you felt goosebump's moving down your spine and your cheeks turn a bright tint of pink. No matter how many times you sleep with Pablo, you will always get nervous around him like this..you can't help yourself!!
"Morning Pablito.." you fake a smile moving closer and touching his face while his eyes closed once more as he puckered his lips waiting for a kiss you happily obliged.
"Hmm..you get me for another day nena. You ready for our second date??" he said and you felt horrible that you really just wanted to stay in bed and recover so you faked being alright like usual.
"Umm..s..sure..what do you want to do??" you asked praying he says just being lazy at home but you knew Pablo isn't the guy to stay in one place for long. He needs to be in constant movement, that's why he's such a good footballer.
"We can walk around that park you like so much? Maybe get some ice cream?" he said but all that you heard is 'walking' which you knew would be a mission impossible in your current case. But you were too embarrassed to tell him anything :/
Just imagine..sorry Pablo, but you fucked me so good last night that I can't stand up right now..yeah you were too shy to say that!!
"Umm..w..walking..with this weather??" you quickly changed the subject from the real reason you dreaded getting out of this bed right now.
"It's not too cold, besides I am always the one who is freezing" he chuckled tucking a strand of your hair behind your ear and noticed your face dropping as if you were unsure of how to tell him something important. He knew you too well to let this go..
"Is something wrong, nena??" he asked raising up your chin as you gulped knowing that you had to be honest when he was looking at you like that..not to mention that there is no way you can get out of this bed today!!
"Um..can we just stay in bed all day porfavor??" you ask shyly trying to avoid the reason and Pablo smiled snaking his strong arm around your waist and starting to kiss your neck passionately..yeah he definitely didn't get it!!
"I thought I really treated you last night..but if you're in the mood then I'd be happy to oblige" he smirked into your skin but you pulled away shaking your head making the boy utterly confused right now.
"Umm..it's not that..you did treat me last night..maybe a little too much..and I..can't.." you were trying to go around it but Pablo was getting only more and more confused.
"I can't feel my legs Pablo!" you spat it out finally making him chuckle and nods his head before moving back and kissing your lips lovingly.
"Aww my poor bomboncita..was I too rough with you last night amorcito??" he asked caressing your blushed cheek and you nodded moving closer to him and hiding your face into his chest.
"I liked it..a lot..but right now everything hurts Pablitoo.." you whine and he nods kissing the top of your head before pulling away to look down into your eyes.
"I'm sorry mi amor.." he said feeling bad to ever bring you pain even though it's a sweet kind of pain.
"It's alright, amor..I really enjoyed it last night..I just need a recovery session today" you say relating it to his football which made him chuckle and pull you closer kissing the top of your head.
"Hmm..for this recovery session, I promise breakfast rico..then a warm bath..then maybe a massage??" he spoke looking down at you to check if you agreed and you just smiled nodding your head at him.
"And cuddles!! Lot's of cuddles, amor.." you say and he nod holding you tight and running his hand through your hair combing it a little and massaging your scalp as a result.
"I'm gonna take good care of you amorcito mio.." he said and after a few minutes of cuddling you, he gave you your phone while leaving to the kitchen to make some breakfast.
When he came back, your stomach was growling already and your phone was long forgotten. He chuckled putting it on the bed before grabbing a toast and bringing it close to your mouth as you bit it with a smile.
"Mm..you should also eat something amor" you said but he sushed you with a kiss smiling when he saw your cheeks blushing. He loved how shy you get whenever he is intimate with you.
"Shh it's my turn amorcito..just eat and I'll get the bath ready" he said getting up and walking to the bathroom to get everything ready.
"Lista princesa??" he said and when you nodded before you could try to get up his arms were already underneath your thighs as he carried you towards the bathroom bridal style.
"I could have tried to walk amor.." you said when he made you sit inside the warm water that felt amazing!!
"You just can't relax and let someone take care of you??" he said and you chuckled while he kissed the top of your head.
"Te amo Pablitoo.." you said and he smiled nodding his head and giving you your favorite book.
"Yo te amo muchisimo mi amor..I will be back when your surprise is ready, bueno? Just relax.." he said and you smiled nodding your head and enjoying some reading while he ran to the nearby florist to grab your favorite bouquet of white orchids.
"Do you want to write something??" girl asked and Pablo was unsure of what to say especially in his messy handwriting. He nodded trying to sound poetic but ended up writing
"To his princesa from her Gavi❤️"
"Amorcito..estas lista??" he said helping you out and dressing you up in his favorite big hoodie and some sweatpants.
"I look like a boy!"you said looking at the mirror at his giant clothes covering both your feet and hands.
"Hm..you're sexy in my clothes preciosa" he said kissing your neck and making you giggle and ask for your surprise.
"Eager, aren't you??" he teased grabbing your hand as you both walked to the kitchen where the bouquet was laid on the table making you gasp and rush to look at it.
"Amor!! It's so beautiful!!" you said realizing the little not stuck on the edge. You knew your boy wasn't much of the writer but even that one sentence meant so much!!
He snuck his arms around you and hid his face int he crook on your neck while you held the card to your chest. You were even tearing up while he left soft kisses all over your skin.
"I'm so sorry I was too rough on you amor.." he said and you turned around in his arms hugging him tightly and leaving small kisses all over his neck.
"Hmm shut up and baby me Gavii!!" you said and he smirked grabbing your thighs and carrying you to the bed for cuddles for the rest of the day.

Belphie to you was somepne you despise, right now and for however long you can hold grudges and bitch be darn yes you do,I mean this man literally killed you even while you were showing empathy and helping him out of the so called prison Lucifer kept him in, such a whiny bitch.
So after you got back to living in your body, what was the first thing you were gonna do? You guest it!
"*SLAP*" as quick as the wind on hurricane season in Puerto Rico you hit him right in his dumbass of a face, everyone stared at you with shock but before they could say anything or the pathetic man you had just slap you went of on him
"HOW DARE YOU KILL ME YOU SAD POOR EXCUSE OF A DEMON!" you poked at his chest "AFTER EVERYTHING I DID TO GET YOU BACK TO SEE YOUR TWIN BROTHER THIS IS HOW YOU REPAY ME!! HUH IS IT?!?!" Your eyes were filled with blazing rage that would put any of the brother's tantrums to shame..
"Let me tell you something.." you're voice got suddenly calmer "you're lucky I don't have a time matching so that I can HIT YOU in the ballsack the minute you got set free and Belphie" your got close to his face "i hit hard"
You walked out of the room "nobody is allowed in my room in the next 48 hours cause this hoe" you point at yourself "will lose it..more than I already have" you whispered as you made it to your room and locking it.
" That really hurt," Blephie whispered under his breath while rubbing his cheek.

[Enters the room pushing a mobile white board full of words, drawings and sticky notes.]
Ok, so. I've been working on something for the past few days... It's a Gravity Falls AU I called "The magic of sight AU" and this is the premise: "Stan gains the hability to predict the future when he has been around 4 years in the streets by a spanish witch in Colombia."
But before I say anything else, I'll show you the last drawing I made about it.
Ok, this will be a semi-long post explaining the base that I have planned already (because I'm a lunatic and I've made three alternate timelines for this AU, but I'll make a separate post about that).
How does it work?
Thanks to what is technically a curse Stan gets suddens glimpses of the future. It usually has to do with him, but sometimes he sees other things (that he can take advantage of, like, a lottery number or someone hiding something valuable somewhere he's close to, etc). The info is always useful, one way or another, but it can be misinterpreted (or acted bad upon). They can be about immediate danger or something that'll cause a chain reaction that'll affect him (negatively) in weeks/months.
His first vision was about being run over by a car two days after getting the power.
When he gets the visions his pupils shrink like crazy and a mark appears on his chest.
(This one's the mark. It doesn't glow, it looks more like a tattoo than anything.)
At first it was very noticeable that he was getting a vision by the way he acted right after. But with time you wouldn't be able to tell if not for the eyes and mark.
– Some fun-facts:
Every time he tried to end it all he got a vision about his next happier time. (That, or the poor disturbed soul that would find his body.)
He got the ability right when he got to Colombia (it hadn't been even a month). The witch gave him that power because he helped her with something and she saw how miserable he was.
This ability has saved his life more than once, but it has also put him in danger (better don't think about that cult he started).
• STORYLINE
After he finds out he's been blessed he's kind of in denial and thinks nothing of it. But after it happens a few times with insignificant stuff, and then wins the lottery (not much, maybe like 500 dollars from a scrape) he finally accepts that maybe something's up.
After that he tries to "control" it for a bit, but quickly realises that it is at random.
He's already a bit involved in iykyk (drogs), but thanks to his new power he manages to avoid bad people's attention.
After some time he lets himself get carried away thinking that he's untouchable. That's when he hits his head against a wall (metaphorically). He misinterpretes the vision and fucks up in a deal, making someone important mad at him (not Rico though). He has to flee and hide for a bit.
And that's mostly how he spends the next few years, he manages to live comfortable for a while, amassing money and meeting people, sometimes the good ones others the bad ones. Then something happens and he has to leave, sometimes he can take his money with him, others he can't (cuz he had to use it to pay back to someone, or to escape).
Most of the times things go wrong because he misinterpreted a vision, but it also is because there was nothing he could really do.
One time he got involved in some messy stuff (houman traffic) by mistake, and the only way he found out he was taking kids to somewhere horrible was thanks to, you guessed it, his power. He called in some favours and got the kids to a safe place, then he ran away from South America for good (he just crossed someone really powerful), but not before tipping off the police about that particular gang, with luck that mess would distract them from him getting back to the US, and if the universe feels generous, get them in jail for a while. Even though if it probably meant that they would look after him after they sort everything out (they did).
After some time back in the US he, unintentionally, really, joined/reformed a cult (it was more like a bunch of people adored him cuz of his power). It started because he decided to help someone after getting a vision, and then he realised he had just saved someone important in the weird church of a small town (practically everyone in there was involved in some dark stuff already thanks to that church). He got invited, and since he was on hiding he thought that this could be a good hiding spot for a while (and he was offered a high position in the "church").
He realised pretty quickly that something was off, but it took him longer to realise what exactly (he knew he was in some kind of cult, but not how bad it really was). And when, a year and a month after he joined, he came across some kind of basement destined for very disturbing rituals he flew the hell out of there the same night. (And he obviously called the cops on them.)
(They hadn't proposed him to join them yet cuz he was a newbie, he had to have at least five years of experience in the church to join the heavy rituals.)
After he got involved the church, he started using his visions to maintain his status, everyone there started seeing him as some kind of Messiah. So they respected him a lot, that's one of the main reasons he didn't leave earlier.
(He may or may not have eaten human meat on his time here. If he has, he has no idea.)
After that he went form place to place, amassing money again. But this time he kept himself away from the drugs stuff (at least for a good while). He mainly went to fight rings to bet or participate in illegal boxing fights.
He pulled some more scams, this time on individual people instead of making products. He learned his lesson.
He was living good, or as good as one can. But then he mistakenly interpreted a vision and fucked up big. The guys he crossed back in South America had send a few people after him after they escaped out of prison and managed to regroup. And they found him.
He almost dies and had to lay low again for a good while. He was almost out of money when Ford asked for his help.
He got there, and before he knocks on the door he gets a vision of Ford getting sucked into the portal. He doesn't know what the hell that means, but he says to himself that he has to keep his cool and, even though he doesn't understand how the hell that vision could happen, he'll try to make it not happen.
He can't keep his cool. It's hearing Ford send him away and crash out.
The fight goes the same until Stan sees the open portal. He gets a flashback to the vision (but not a vision) and stops mid speech. Ford realises that the portal is open and goes to close it, he trips (cuz mf is fucking sleep deprived) causing him to start getting pulled. And Stan tries to save him.

Aaaand, the would be all for now. I'll post the timelines tomorrow, because I'm falling asleep as I write.
Also, here, have some drawings I made.
(I made the little doodles in class, just so you know how obsessed I've been.)
