On December 1st, hundreds of Latinx activists are gathered in San Juan, Puerto Rico to build, learn, and strategize together. In the midst of a transition into a Trump administration and a time of protest on the island – from resisting PROMESA’s Fiscal Control Board to blockading the dumping of coal ash in Peñuelas – the climate at the gathering is electric, with Latinx activists from all places and nationalities ready to learn and stand in solidarity against the colonization and subjugation Puerto Rico has endured for far too long.
