Virtual Event
Join Boricuas Unidos en la Diáspora (BUDPR) for a conversation with Steve Howell, author of Cold War Puerto Rico: Anti-Communism in Washington's Caribbean Colony.
Howell's book traces the history of the United States' persecution of leftist and pro-independence organizations and activists in Puerto Rico, including his own father. His account of why the U.S. government was determined to keep Puerto Rico as a possession by any means necessary remains resonant and relevant today. The conversation will be moderated by BUDPR president Alberto Medina, author of the forthcoming book Free Puerto Rico: Independence for America's Oldest Colony.
