The United
States (US) students recite, in every school before classes begin, the Pledge
of Allegiance. They say: “I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States
of America, and to the Republic, for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible,
with liberty and justice for all.” But, who, in fact, has enjoyed liberty and
justice, since the very founding of the US 244 years ago?
Certainly, not
the indigenous people, or the Blacks brought from Africa to America against
their will to serve as slaves. The wealthiest US citizens have been the only ones
to enjoy liberty and justice.
The coronavirus
has made that perfectly clear to all those who are ignorant of their own
history. How could a nation of, by and for the People, allow her People to die
from the coronavirus at the highest rate than any other nation in the world?
She does, when profits are more important than her people.
Many US
citizens don’t even know that Puerto Ricans are US citizens. Puerto Ricans are,
but not because we wanted it!
The USG
militarily invaded Puerto Rico in 1898 to make her its colony. The USG has, and
is committing a crime against humanity by refusing to comply with the United
Nations’ (US) Charter of 1945 that prohibits colonialism. Moreover, the USG has
refused to comply with 39 UN resolutions asking it to immediately return Puerto
Rico's sovereignty to the Puerto Ricans. http://webtv.un.org/watch/5th-meeting-committee-of-24-special-committee-on-decolonization/6051725003001/
The USG is
not the police of the world. On the contrary, the world considers, and with
good reasons, the USG as the biggest threat to peace. https://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2017/08/07/polls-us-greatest-threat-to-peace-world-today/
Will the 99%
allow the 1% to continue to run their government exclusively for themselves? If
the people don’t stop them, they will continue with the status quo forever!
We must engage in resistance today, resistance tomorrow and resistance forever!
