WAR AGAINST ALL PUERTO RICANS
Revolution and Terror in America’s Colony
New York Times recognizes “the overlooked history of Puerto Rico” and the Revolution of 1950
Yesterday, in its Sunday edition, the New York Times recognized the Revolution of 1950 in Puerto Rico. The Times called it exactly that…a revolution.
The Times also acknowledged that this revolution is not mere “history,” but that it has continuing and broad implications for today.
The discussion occurred in an article about the book War Against All Puerto Ricans, which will also be released in a Spanish-language version on November 24, 2015.
The Spanish version is called Guerra Contra Todos los Puertorriqueños.
Here is the entire article, written by veteran Times journalist Sam Roberts:
