“We were punished for speaking Spanish,” recalled Bárbara Flores, who would go on to train thousands of teachers. “We were hit with rulers, pinched, our braids were pulled. Now the whole school is dual-language.” (via @CalMatters ) chalkbeat.org/2024/12/11/cal…

NEW Bad Bunny just posted this video to his Instagram account which has 45 million followers. The caption on the post is “Garbage.” It is basically a love letter to Puerto Rico and about having pride in being Puerto Rican. It features footage of extraordinary Puerto Ricans as well.

Wow. Must watch @AOC this morning.

.@ananavarro reacts to Trump rally comedian calling Puerto Rico "island of garbage": "Today, we are all in this together." "On November 5, I want you to vote for your heritage and your traditions and your identity. I want you to vote with dignity and self-respect."

.@Sunny Hostin: "This Puerto Rican has something to say about the island that I love, where my family is from. Puerto Rico is trash? We are Americans, Donald Trump." "My fellow Puerto Ricans, trash collection day is November 5, 2024. Don't forget it."

I’m here to tell you that even though some have forgotten … I remember. I remember what it was like when Trump was president. I remember what he did and said, about Puerto Rico… About our people ... I remember after Hurricane Maria devastated our island… Trump blocked billions in relief … while thousands died. I remember that when our families lacked clean water and electricity, Trump threw paper towels and called Puerto Rico “dirty” and “poor.” But I was not surprised.. Because I ALSO remember… he launched his campaign by calling Latinos criminals and rapists. He’s told us what he’ll do. He'll separate children from their families and threatened to use the ARMY to do it This election goes way beyond political parties. Now let’s remember what the United States represents and stands for. It’s our name - United. Regardless of where we’re from. I’m Marc Anthony… I remember… And that’s why I support Kamala Harris for President

Today I released my plan to help build a brighter future for Puerto Rico and the Puerto Rican people as president. Meanwhile, at Donald Trump’s rally, they’re calling Puerto Rico “a floating island of garbage.”

Holy hell this ad from @VoteVets absolutely eviscerates Trump. Share this everywhere. Because NOBODY in our armed forces should EVER have to salute that man again.

You will be missed! ⁦@ABC7Chicago⁩
