Those are the words of a grieving Puerto Rican mother at her son’s funeral, as she pulls the U.S. flag off her son’s coffin, and replaces it with a Puerto Rican flag. Part of this report includes looking at how the U.S. military targets young island Puerto Ricans for recruitment, despite the fact that they cannot vote for a president who can end this war. Are young people of color the canon fodder for this war? [youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hi7s_M4vkTY&hl=en 285 234]

This is the one thing I don’t understand about Alot pf Puerto Ricans is that we are proud of being part of America and brag about it, but in reality what are we so proud about if most Ricans in both America and Puerto Rico still remain poor and low income. PUERTO RICO PLEASE WAKE UP YOUR BETTER OFF STICKIN TOGETHA WITH THE OTHA LATIN COUNTRIES.
