The United States did this to Puerto Ricans, too.
In 1948, the US-appointed PR gov signed a Gag Law making it illegal to fly the Puerto Rican flag, punishable up to 10 years in prison.
It was illegal until 1957. When the law was repealed, the gov changed the PR flag to US blue. https://t.co/WMUibExORY https://t.co/NNc8U3Dguc
George Floyd was murdered one year ago today. Since then, hundreds more Americans have died in encounters with police—parents, sons, daughters, friends taken from us far too soon. But the last year has also given us reasons to hope.
It’s been a year since those horrifying 8 minutes and 46 seconds stole George Floyd’s life. Today, I am thinking of this clip of his daughter Gianna, and all the young people out there who have seen so much, but refuse to give up hope. https://t.co/VclaQksyso
Across the country, we have failed to properly invest in infrastructure for half a century. The American Jobs Plan will get millions of Americans good-paying union jobs repairing our country’s crumbling infrastructure.
It’s a blue-collar blueprint to rebuild America.
