Puerto Rican Nationalist Party --
The Puerto Rican Nationalist Youth of New York is the youth wing of the Puerto Rican Nationalist Party, an organization founded in 1922 in Puerto Rico with the objective of freeing the land from colonial rule, unifying and empowering the Nation, and aiding in the creation of a Sovereign Republic. On May 30 of 1930, Don Pedro Albizu Campos, supported by the Nationalist Youth, was elected President. Under Albizu Campo’s leadership, the Party became eventually became the strongest opposition to the colonial regime of the U.S. in Puerto Rico.
The Puerto Rican Nationalist Youth of New York existed before the Puerto Rican Nationalist Party itself. It was organized in 1919 along with the first Asociación Nacionalista de Puerto Rico (Nationalist Association of Puerto Rico). The Nationalist Youth was then composed of students from the University of Puerto Rico and High School students. In New York City, it is currently composed of Puerto Ricans between 18 and 30 years of age.--http://www.pnpr.org
He was called "El Maestro" by all who loved him and valued his leadership. Pedro Albizu Campos was the most prominent Puerto Rican political figure of the 20th century, a National Hero who sacrificed his life for the freedom of his country. Under his direction, the Nationalist Party of Puerto Rico became a major force in the fight for independence. A powerful speaker, thousands would gather to listen to his passionate discourses of freedom. He urged the Puerto Rican people to reclaim their cultural history and national symbols such as the flag and the national anthem.
Pedro Albizu Campos was instrumental in winning an island wide sugar cane strike and exposing secret medical experiments sponsored by the Rockefeller Institute. He developed the theory of non-collaboration (retraimiento) with the colonial structures, i.e. boycotting elections and military service. He soon became a target of the colonial forces and was arrested and charged with seditious conspiracy. From the mid-thirties to the early sixties, Pedro Albizu Campos would be in and out of U.S. prisons (25 years). During his incarceration, he repeatedly charged that he was a target of human radiation experiments. His skin severely swollen and cracking he covered himself with wet towels. Jailers thought he was crazy, but today there is proof that radiation experiments did take place.
Philosophically Pedro Albizu Campos was neither a communist nor an anti-American. In fact, he was a deeply religious man of the Catholic faith.
"The good people of the U. S. are not to be blamed for the shameless conduct of certain government officials." He argued in court and at the podium, that the U.S. occupation of Puerto Rico was illegal. His legal argument was based on the question of the USA being awarded proprietary rights over Puerto Rico by virtue of the Paris Peace Treaty of 1898. The island was handed over by Spain along with Cuba and the Philippines as spoils of war to the U.S.
He claimed that the treaty was nullified by the fact that Spain had previously granted Autonomy to Puerto Rico in 1897. By the time of the Treaty, Puerto Rico had its own coin, its own postage stamps, mail and custom service and was therefore a sovereign independent nation under international law. Spain, he claimed, had no rights to give away another sovereign nation.
Further more, Puerto Rico per se had never participated at the treaty nor even been consulted. His summation was to the effect that É "Éthis countries consent to its association with the US, never having been asked, nor conceded, the acquisition effected by the U.S. under said treaty, is a violation of international LawÉ"
He never accepted the United States rights to govern in Puerto Rico. He did reach that "Éif they won't listen to legal reason, then we must take up arms against the invaders." When he issued his call to arms, he cited as legal precedents the Boston Tea Party and the drawn sword of George Washington. Ironically, he also mentioned that Luis Muñoz Rivera got Puerto Rico's Autonomy from Spain by means of a threat to take his case to the U.S., both parties understanding that the liberal Yankees, would sympathize with the concept of independence. It is curious to note that both Cuba and the Philippines where the Spanish/American War was fought were granted their independence. Only Puerto Rico where there was no major fighting is still controlled by the U.S.
Because of his teachings, the Puerto Rican people and the Latino world called, Pedro Albizu Campos, "El Maestro". He was the first great Puerto Rican theoretician of anticolonial thought and the first to describe the contradictions of the colonized. Today there are parks, streets and schools named after him. Institutes and scholars study his work as well as activists look to his example to continue their struggle for Puerto Rico's independence. People of all ages wear T-shirts adorned with his picture and famous quotes. In all the major struggles presently taking place in Puerto Rico you will always see and feel the presence of "El Maestro" at a demonstration or at rally.

Who I'd like to meet:
The Taínos came from South America and inhabited the Caribbean islands.Prior to them other groups had inhabited the islands; the Arcaicos and Araucos. The Arcaicos might have come from North America in the year 40 A.D. The second wave came from South America, near the Orinoco River and were the Araucos, around the year 370 A.D. Clashes between the Araucos and the Arcaicos might have ocurred in the area of the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. Between the VII and XI centuries the cultural phase known as the Pre-Taíno developed and later the Taínos flourished around the XIII century centralized in Puerto Rico.The third wave, the Caribs, came also from South America, around 1400 A.D.They extended from the island of Tobago to the island of Vieques and were fighting the Taínos in their efforts to go farther north at the time of the arrival of the Spaniards in 1493. At that time there were approximately 70-100 thousand indians in Boriken.The supreme cacique was Agueybana, residing in Guainía(now Guanica), in the Southwest.They called the island Borikén which meant "the great land of the valiant and noble Lord."
The taínos were bronze-colored, median in stature and had dark, flowing, coarse hair.They had dark,large eyes, slightly obliqued. Males and single women were naked while married women wore a cotton skirt caled a nagua.
The Taínos were divided in three social classes: the naborias or workers, the nitaínos or chiefs and noblemen and the bohiques or priests and medicine men.The cacique or guare was the chief of a yucayeque or village.The caciques were under one supreme chief who at the time of the discovery lived in the Southwest of the island.
The Taínos lived in a defined place and in groups.The central plaza of the yucayeques was the batey where the areytos and the ball games were performed. The caciques house or caney was in front of the caney and the bujius of the nitaínos and naborias were around. The caney was rectangular and larger while the bujíus were smaller and circular in shape.
The furniture were sparse- jamacas or hammocks, seats used by the chiefs, the dujos beds made of cane and called coy.
The taínos fished and hunted but their ocupation was mainly agriculture.They had plantations near to the villages, called conucos.
They cultivated the yuca, aje(batata), maisis(corn), maní(peanuts), tabaco, yayama(pineapple). Cotton was abundant. From the yuca they made a bread called casabe and by fermenting it they obtained an intoxicating brew, the uiku.
The Taínos believed in two spirits or Gods:Yukiyú(Yocahu), god of good and Juracán, god of evil.Yukiyú lived in a mountain in the northeast, (now El Yunque) and Juracán in Sibuqueira(Guadalupe), the land of its enemies, the Caribs. Juracán was responsible for storms, earthquakes and bad crops; Yocahu was an inmortal being with no beginning..
The main entertainments of the Taínos were the dance, music and ballgames. The ball games were played in the bateyes or in big ceremonial centers lined with monoliths such as the ones in Caguana(Utuado) and Tibes.They enjoyed dances(araguaco). To accompany their dances and areytos they had instruments such as maracas, güiro and flutes made from cane or bones.The areytos were important happenings in the life of the yucayeque. Through them the history of the village and its heroes was preserved.
The Taínos believed in in life after death and they buried their dead carefully placing food and water in the tombs so the spirit could use it in its journey.They would place in the tomb the cemi of the dead.The dead would be placed in a position with the knees at the level of the chest and the head in between.The caciques were buried with their possesions and treasures.
The number of Taíno words that persist in the vocabulary of the Puerto Rican people is extensive. Names of plants, trees and fruits include the maní, leren, ají, yuca, mamey, pajuil, pitajaya,cupey, tabonuco and ceiba. Names of fish,animals and birds include the mucaro, guaraguao, iguana, cobo, carey, jicotea, guabina, manati, buruquena and juey.Other objects and instruments include the güiro, bohío, batey, caney, hamaca, nasa, petate, coy, barbacoa, batea,, cabuya, casabe and canoa.
The Spaniards treated severely the indian population, forcing their work in mines and construction as well as in agriculture.They did not address the rights of that race that was the owner of their land and that so cordially had received them.Despite their eventual rebellion against the Spaniards the dissapearance of the Taínos turned out to be extreme and fast. Unused to slave labor conditions and exposed for the first time to European diseases for which they had no immunity, the Taíno population was rapidly decimated. By the late 1500's the Indian population as an ethnic group had disappeared although with extensive intermarriage with the Spanish and African populations the Taino became a permanent part of the island's racial heritage.
Free Dr.York ! On April 23, 2004 A.D., an innocent man, Dr.Malachi Z. York was sentenced to 135 years in prison by Judge C. Ashley Royal United States District Judge for the Middle District of Georgia. He received this lengthy sentence despite the fact that the legal maximum sentence for the crimes he was charged with is 50 years. . He is a 60-year-old man, and has been sentenced to life and beyond for crimes he did not commit. This sentencing occurred despite the fact that new evidence has come forth in the form of a videotaped statement of the key witness for the government, Habiba Abigail Washington in which she states that she was coerced and threatened by the law enforcement officials to testify against Dr. Malachi Z. York. .
