This webinar took place on Oct. 3.<\/strong> Watch the video here:<\/strong> https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/SocialistResurgence\/videos\/1243824252650514\/?vh=e&extid=0&d=n<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The people of Puerto Rico have shown tremendous resilience despite the onslaught of natural disasters. Climate catastrophe has been made increasingly devastating by the legacy of U.S. colonialism. For many generations, way before Trump, the people of Puerto Rico have been exploited, robbed of their resources, and rendered unable to determine their own future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The struggle for self-determination expressed last year through the mass movement that ousted corrupt sexist and homophobic Governor Ricky Rossello Nevares was only the most recent expression of a profound discontent. Panelists will talk about the struggle on the ground today and attitudes toward the upcoming elections and a resolution on statehood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
