Join us for Puerto Rico Summer: What Comes Next?, a timely discussion of the mass protests which ousted Governor Ricardo Rosselló.
WHAT: This event aims to understand the mobilizing efforts before and after the #PuertoRicanSummer through the perspectives of labor activists, artists, and civil rights monitors, and to share lessons of participatory democracy and resistance in the 21st century. Most of all we want to explore what comes next: what are families, communities, and organizations envisioning for their present and their future emancipation? What is our role as US citizens in this pivotal moment in the history of the relationship between empure and colony?
