Acerca de esta escucha
Due to decades of colonial indoctrination in Puerto Rico, whole generations do not know about these colonial atrocities and historical events, such as the Rio Piedras and Ponce massacres; the revolts against Spanish and U.S. colonial rule; the persecutions and repression against the pro-independence movement; the racist assimilation policies; the imposition of English; the use of Puerto Rican women as guinea pigs; the negative political, economic, social, and psychological impacts of colonialism; and much more.
This book aims to promote more education and discussion about these colonial policies, atrocities, and other important colonial issues impacting Puerto Rico.
The author believes that “an educational system under a sovereign Puerto Rican government will be paramount in the mission to eradicate the colonial mentality (a psychological disease) from future generations. Puerto Ricans need to know about their past in order to better forge a more prosperous and democratic future. It’s time for Puerto Rico to unshackle itself from colonialism via education, national self-consciousness, and resistance to become the free, sovereign, democratic, and prosperous nation it is destined to be in the world”.
The author states that “one day, Puerto Rico will cease being the world’s oldest colony and become the world’s newest sovereign nation. As Puerto Ricans, it is our duty and responsibility to future generations of Puerto Ricans that they inherit a free and democratic nation, not a decrepit, dependent, and shameful colony”.
This book will surely enrage, motivate, and make Puerto Ricans question, defy, and resist colonialism and decide to fight for freedom.

In Fantasy Island, Ed Morales traces how, over the years, Puerto Rico has served as a colonial satellite, a Cold War Caribbean showcase, a dumping ground for US manufactured goods, and a corporate tax shelter. He also shows how it has become a blank canvas for mercenary experiments in disaster capitalism on the frontlines of climate change, hamstrung by internal political corruption and the US federal government's prioritization of outside financial interests.

It is 1898, and groups of starving Puerto Ricans, los hambrientos, roam the parched countryside and dusty towns begging for food. Under the yoke of Spanish oppression, the Caribbean island is forced to prepare to wage war with the United States. Up in the mountainous coffee region of Utuado, Vicente Vega and Valentina Sanchez labor to keep their small farm from the creditors. When the Spanish-American War and the great San Ciriaco Hurricane of 1899 bring devastating upheaval, the young couple is lured, along with thousands of others, to the sugar plantations of Hawaii.

The facts and truths which the author presented are not taught to people in general.
I appreciate the knowledge and information. I hope that Puerto Rico may become sovereign in my lifetime.
