They’re not banning books because they’re dangerous—They’re banning them because they expose the truth.

Ser boricua y simplemente existir es un acto de resistencia. Para quienes han sido tocados por el colonialismo, tu existencia, tu alegría, y tu supervivencia desafían el intento de borrarnos. Cada obra de arte, cada paso en la academia, cada ayuda a tu comunidad—resistencia. 🌺✊🏽
