Ricans for Independence Celebrating the 4th in their Own Way

The Puerto Rican Independence Party, or PIP is planning to celebrate the 4th of July with a campaign to confront myths and fears concerning a free Puerto Rico by handing out a pamphlet on various beaches throughout la isla del encanto. Juan Dalmau, General Secretary of the party said:…

mientras otros celebren mañana la independencia de otro país -en referencia a que el Partido Nuevo Progresista (PNP) conmemora la de Estados Unidos- ellos “harán campaña” por la independencia de Puerto Rico.

The 44 page pamphlet titled Lo que debes saber sobre la independencia was written by PIP Economic Secretary Edwin Irizarry Mora, Constitutional Rights professor of the Universidad Interamericana Carlos Gorrín and lawyer and economist Carlos Fronteras. Now that’s what I call good beach reading.
