In this episode of “I Was There”, a series that highlights personal experiences in historical moments, VICE meets with Chino. Chino, a Puerto Rican-Cuban activist, was part of a pivotal demonstration in which the Statue of Liberty was taken over. Chino shares this experience during his youth and its consequences on his community, as well as his own journey as an activist.
An archival and interview-based series where a subject describes their experience and role within a larger historical event or movement - with hopes of drawing parallels between history/their experiences and current cultural themes/elements. Using archival footage, the series focuses on the lived experience and not what you’d find in textbooks.

Now they should do a video on the cold blooded assassination by FBI agents of Filiberto Ojeda Rios. If you notice, the man who was narrating the events of the statue of liberty takeover had a shirt with his name on it. He was gunned down by a sniper and left to bleed out on his porch on the day Ricans celebrate "El Grito de Lares" , a short lived independance against Spanish imperialism. His killing on that day delivered a clear message by the US gov. towards anyone who wants independance and is willing to fight for it.

TBLE To help you out and speak like adults in a conversation which some people seem to struggle with being childish, rude comments and lazy. Fred Hampton was a Panther leader in Chicago, he was killed during a joint raid of police with the FBI in his apartment with another Panther. The guy you mentioned that fled the country I can not recall his name but he was a Panther who did leave the country before authorities caught up to him. That did happen I just can not remember his name right off hand. As far as I know you are right he did never return to the states. Fred was a young man when he died so I would imagine the other guy was around Fred’s age. I am not certain on the rest of the story regarding the guy that left the country.

@@yotengoe7302 its the same as the founding fathers rebelling against their oppressors the British. Patriots are those who simply speak out loud against crimes to humanity, whether they be foreign or domestic. I guess looking into how the Usa historically treats is colonies you’ll get a better idea of why they took these actions here. I rec the book, war on all puerto ricans. Very ugly history.

@@yotengoe7302 then you def dont know the full meaning of a patriot and at times what it takes to achieve liberty. If you look at history, when there are no other means for a small nation or group to defeat a stronger power and achieve liberty, then violence is usually their only alternative. So in your world view even the founding fathers of America weren’t patriots against the stronger power of Britain. I personally dont like violence but i understand when the options to fight for freedom are taken from you, then like Malcolm X said, “by any means necessary!!” And btw if you have that flag as your thumbnail thats a shame because you then dont truly understand its meaning. And when u say a different country then again it shows you lack info on this situation. That island has been a part of America as citizens since 1917.

I'm Puerto Rican and you really shouldn't listen to this people. They are Puerto Ricans that live in the U.S and some of them have never even set foot in Puerto Rico in their lives. Just look at the fact that there are more Puerto Ricans living in the U.S than in Puerto Rico. A lot of Puerto Ricans like to talk about how P.R should be a independent country but as soon as the island was hit by a hurricane they moved moved to the U.S. The whole independent movement is a joke in my opinion. On the island it's mainly supported by old people who grew up in areas without a lot of education and It's more of a scapegoat than a true movement.
