Most Puerto Ricans believe that the way to decolonize Puerto Rico is via
elections. The following is an example of that.
Puerto Rican Independence
and the 2024 Election
Our first event of
the year in the BUDPR Education & Engagement Series is here! Join us this Friday August 16 at 6pm ET for
a conversation about the rise in support for Puerto Rican independence,
critical shifts in Puerto Rican politics, and the 2024 election in Puerto Rico.
Our guest will be
Adrián González Costa, a candidate for Senate from the Puerto Rican
Independence Party running as part of the Alianza in this November's election.
We're excited to bring you this event in partnership with the Diaspórica podcast. See you there!
Right now, however, most United States (US) citizens are opposed to our
nation’s unconditional support of the artificial colonial settler regime of
Israel in its genocide against the indigenous people of Palestine, and yet it
continues. Both Republican and Democratic Party candidates running for president
are for the continuation of that support. Therefore, the US is an oligarchy,
and not a democracy!
Thus, the US is the only one opposing a free and prosperous Puerto Rico by
refusing to comply with 42 United Nations’ resolutions demanding that it
immediately return Puerto Rico’s sovereignty to the Puerto Ricans. . https://webtv.un.org/en/asset/k1w/k1wb1xdn6i

The growing support for independence is because two thirds of Puerto Ricans
live today away from our national territory, and half of those remaining in
Boriken live in poverty. Since this problem is the result to a violation of
international law, and is not a political election issue, the 9 million
Boricuas worldwide should correct it by permanently engaging in resistance to
force the US to comply with international law.
Elections don’t mean anything in an oligarchy.
Vote with your feet!
