[000:00:00;00] ah, [000:00:00;00] a new a new

one on with we went to bed and 2017 and woke up and it was 19 o 3. no bower? no light?

no water? no cell phone numbers just like nothing was work and you didn't know how your loved ones were doing except the ones. and you had you need immediate mission any ah hospital or without power doctors doing procedures with the flashlight from duracell font. so it's like you're on your own. what do you need to know? ah, with will so

brain with people who had to rec, we left wet week where so and we also love puerto rico with the response to maria was really like a poster child of, of the relationship between, you know, puerto rico and, and the united states for the situation and maria was not just created by maria, but what it, maria lays bare the reality. it strips it down to the bare bones and you can really see that colonialism still exist and

a few places and 40 go as one of them when ah, our actions were, were aimed at getting people to say yes, it is possible to resist and break the colonized mentality that these guys can't be beat or that there's nothing we can do to change the situation. and that sense of input in the 19 seventy's when once they got i was in his early twenties, he chose to fight for the independence of his homeland. although many,

puerto ricans were anger to buy a lack of political autonomy. only a small percentage advocated full independence from the united states. even fewer chose wines, path of para military operations, and robbing banks. last one i did was 33 years ago. most of the time to my role was because the protection against the police coming so i, i was ready to engage and gunfire if it had to be to protect my comrades from, from getting caught. and also on i had thought that through

with the with the island of point article was 1st colonized by spain in 15 o 8 in 1898. it became a u. s. con. yet it has retained its own cultural identity. today nearly 3 and a half 1000000 people live a population greater than 21 of the 50 us states, but close to half a 1000000 poverty point. the vehicle is

a u. s. territory powerless to challenge options of the united states government that affected people residents have no vote in congress or in presidential elections. we had a subscription to time magazine and there was an issue which the cover story was on prep schools in the us. and i read it and, and over was covered prominently there and it said they had 7 indoor basketball court that, that made, that made it very, very, as a wow with i had like a shark skin suit which i thought was so cool. and the 1st time i walk in the dining off,

maybe half an hour after my parents left and i felt homesickness. and as soon as i walk into the cha hall take maybe 10 steps. some guy goes, hey, you know, that's the 1st time i'd heard that word, let alone addressed me, but i went up and slapped him in the face. you know as hard as i could just why. and he was so shocked that he didn't do anything. and i went into the law to the court room to hang out my coat and then go into the dining room and united holy. what have i gotten myself with senior year and, and over my, my professor for american history. mr. len james. he said, sir,

how would you like to do a term paper in lieu of the final exam? i said, yeah, sure. and he said want to do a paper on the spanish american war. and i didn't, i came to our door in the library to the bottles a little the library to read the congressional record. and there's nothing like reading these guys talk on filtered on the one side there were those referring to us for practically as monkeys in like of the brown races and listen that are going away. and then you had guys like gone william jennings, bryan and the anti imperialist, saying this betrays all over the united states. as of all, we and all, we fraught the colonies, reform for independence. what are we? we're going to become a empire now with

for over 400 years point dot eco suffered as a spanish colony but in 1890 same. granted the island, a degree of autonomy with many hope that this was a step towards independence. but it turned out to be a dead end with just months after winter, he goes to 1st election and the united states invaded the island. within 10 weeks, hopes of independence were dashed as the island was annexed by the u. s. and then in 1917, that jones acted made point, duncan's us citizens with like okay, you're gonna make you american citizens, which you didn't ask for even if we were offered citizenship with happened,

we would prefer are wrong with you guys in line for a robin. the statue applies to rabbit. i don't know if you're supposed to, i'm and all. i see a lot of people doing agile. i 0. okay. who's next? i do know that. that's not john harvard. now did know because he was dead by the time they did that. so some, some young man posed a year is not right. and he wasn't just the founder because he was one of, of all one of the. so that's why they say this is the stature was us released. okay

. about the year i was my dorm room window on the top floor there. i as i looked down this morning, i was just starting to be light. there was a mist still on the yard which added to this kind of surreal quality. and there was a ring of policemen, setting up an outer perimeter. i mean, they all had these elements on with visors and they set up a gauntlet on, on this door here. that i planted when you get here, the screaming and everything else and then started seeing the guys students who were in the building being evicted,

one by one side. i just pulled down. and as they brought you down the stairs and kicking you and hitting you until you got to the bad wagon, threw in the paddy wagon filled it out and drove it out. and then brought the next one in someone who was apparently injured. and that was what basically made the break for me from being an advocate of peaceful change and thinking that we could change things peacefully. understanding that these guys had to be fought in a different way for me. that was the beginning of my radicalization. policemen a little the crowd, man, group of people in the building. i

i look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings, except where such orders that conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about our personal intelligence at the point, obviously is to create trust rather than fear i would like to take on various jobs with artificial intelligence. real, somebody with a robot must protect its own existence with oh, is your media reflection of reality?

in the world transformed what will make you feel safer? isolation for community. are you going the right way or are you being that somewhere? direct? what is true? what is faith in the world corrupted? you need to descend a join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy, even foundation, let it be an arms race is on often very dramatic development. only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult. time time to sit down and talk. ah, ah,

50 years earlier, another puerto rican student matriculate at harvard barrel. i'll be so campus. in 1921, he graduates from harvard law school with the highest grade point average in his class. and it was privileged lines of pottery, less per ghost, and was not recognized as such because in ohio's blight lawrenceville niamack, ah, ah, after harvard, i'll be so campus returns to puerto rico where he witnesses the u. s. controlled sugar cartel,

extracting higher profits from plantation workers than any other place in the world . ah, in 1934, i'll be so campus organized as sugar payne cutters, or much petals. to strike against us sugar companies. they are quickly met with a bloody crackdown but the strikers prevail and the wages are double to a $1.50 a day. ah, emboldened i'll diesel campus forms the cadets of the republic who take an oath to fight for point duty can independence on palm sunday. 1937, they plan a peaceful march. at the last minute, the colonial governor revokes their permit to assemble, and they are surrounded by 200 police. some armed with tom

ah, on the police begin fire. marchers and bystanders attempts to plead a flag. there is the 1st to be killed. a 7 year old girl picks up the flag and she is immediately shoveled. ah, a wounded cadet drags himself to the wall and writes in his own blood. viva! like a ball bleaker abala has, has seen us long lived the republic down with the murders. ah,

for 235 were wounded. 19 killed, including the 7 year old girl. ah ah 20000 mourners attend the funeral ceremonies with none of the police are held accountable for i didn't know any of that. when i was growing up put no, i was like this. what did i know? and i, it wasn't until years later that i began to have a different historical perspective on puerto rico and all that gag law that made flying the puerto rican flag by itself illegal and punishable by prison. you know, you couldn't speak in favor of in the pantry,

be thrown into prison. with in 1948 la, 53, lay the la garza known as the gag order, makes it a crime to display a puerto rican flag. speaking out for independence or seen a patriotic puerto rican song can lead to 10 years in prison. ah, in 1950 nationalists across the island read the staging coordinated attacks on police station. the governor's mansion and the u. s. federal courthouse with the national guard responds with heavy artillery mortars grenades and p 47 bombs. this is the 1st time that us fighter planes i talk

with in the aftermath, 2000, puerto ricans are rounded up and arrested. in retaliation to nationalists form a plan. ah, outside blair house, the president temporary washington home. extreme fanatics of the puerto rican nationalist party tried to force their way in guns blazing to assassinate the president of the united states. assassin, oscar garzo and 2 other guards are wounded as the but as for washington's emergency hospital, the 24 hour guard watches over go to despite a chest wound recovers to face trial. for murder there tried to kill me and i knew

that they tried it. i knew who they were, they are a bunch of fanatics. they wanted an independent puerto rico actually one of the common views is that the nationalists rose up like a bunch of and the government squashed them. in fact, it was the us government policy, the governor's policy, to push these guys into a corner and get them to a point where it's either give up or slow down fighting and so they were pushed into that situation. and then of course, they responded and fought, crushed, and crushing away that is like, you know, like when they do, when they put on the invaders, you know, put down all the freedom fighters, cut their heads off and put them on

a pike. so everybody else knows it, don't mess with us because this is what's waiting for you. i was approached by somebody i trusted very much and you said listeners saw the underground movement is being organized in puerto rico for independence. and you know, we think you're a good candidate what he had say, i said yes. in 1954, 4 point of egan's living in new york, decide that they are willing to sacrifice their lives for independence. communicating from prison. i b. so campus presents them with

a mission to bring the fight for independence to the american public. the group purchases new sunday dress clothes and vice one way. tickets to washington dc. then they enter the us capital building. now congress is in session. lead time it on leads them and reciting the lord's prayer. then she stands up and shouts from the gallery to viva. puerto rico levy long live free puerto rico wire in the house of representatives, families, police, and crowds rushing to the capitol, shoveled and wild. i'm a border we can put out a grantville miranda. it's photograph moments after he. i'm a fellow terrorist. i'm grace good are all had joined with little bron and boring, more than 20 shops at the current house for 5 congress. when our wounded in the murderous address. ah, bill grimly defiant, the woman is hustled from the angry, menacing crowd. ah!

lou for most americans and there's no context to that. it's like these guys are totally insane. you know, these fanatics for pottery gun abandoned, so you know, when we've done such good for them, how good they do that. the criminal investigation reveals that knowledge delivered on fired her weapon into the ceiling, harming no one capital police find a note in her handbag. my life i give for the freedom of my country, the united states is betraying the sacred principles of mankind with the continuous subjugation of my country. ah mm. mm. fully medical all, heather rios was born in puerto rico in the 19 thirty's. as a child,
