Last night @Daughtersandsonsofboriken were present for the unveiling of Don Pedro Albizu Campos portrait at the Harvard club of New York. It took a vigilant effort many phone calls and emails by Daughters and Sons to make sure there was a borikua presence that lives in the spirit of what Don Pedro lived for worked for and ultimately died for at this unveiling!! After finally reaching the Director of the event we were invited to attend. Our public statement is this, though the portrait was beautiful and powerful and thier were some incredible panelists there was a lack of actual education on the life of Don Pedro, their was redundancy of the obvious and very little mention of the United States torture tactics that plagued Don Pedro during his incarceration. Keep in mind this is not an honor bestowed upon Don Pedro by Harvard University it is soley the Harvard Club of New York that is acknowledging our national hero. On a positive note the ex mayor of San Juan Carmen Yulin Cruz whose leadership during hurricane Maria is something we will always admire and cherish was absolutely incredible last night!! Her words were healing as well as inspiring she in our opinion was the highlight of the event outside of the portrait itself!! We do appreciate the Harvard club of New York for the tribute to someone who does not get the recognition nor adulation he so much deserves and were honored to be invited to such a beautiful event. "Por que temer? Temor al destierro, al presidio, al calabozo, a al muerte ...todo es preferible a ser esclavo." -Pedro Albizu Campos Daughters and Sons of Boriken "A la orden"

Two days. One space. One community. On Friday, June 12th, we’re opening the weekend with The Freedom Conference — a space for political education, discussion, history, and community rooted in lived experience, research, and collective struggle. On Saturday, June 13th, during Puerto Rican Weekend in El Barrio, we’ll be hosting a community pop-up fundraiser at The People’s Church, followed later that evening by the 2nd Annual Coquí Poetic Voices — bringing poetry, culture, music, storytelling, and community together in one shared space. From political education to cultural expression, this weekend is about creating space for people to gather, learn, reflect, build, support community creatives, and celebrate together while helping raise support for The People’s Church.

The distro is a judgment-free zone and committed to restoring people’s status or dignity after being dispossessed of rights and freedom, connecting people with legal support and essential supplies. We look forward to continuing to work together! À la orden!

Puerto Rican Weekend in New York City has always been about more than one event. It’s the feeling of the city coming alive. Families outside all day. Music echoing through the blocks. Flags hanging from windows and shoulders. Artists, elders, organizers, musicians, vendors, poets, and community all moving through the same streets together. On Saturday, June 13th, while people are out enjoying the Puerto Rican Festival in El Barrio, we’ll be opening the doors at The People’s Church for the 2nd Annual Coquí Poetic Voices. Throughout the day, we’ll be hosting a community pop-up featuring local vendors, artists, organizations, and community resource tables inside the church. People can stop in throughout the festival, support local community work, connect with artists and organizations, and help support The People’s Church and the space it continues to provide for the neighborhood. Then after the festival, we transition into an evening of poetry, spoken word, music, storytelling, cultural performance, and live expression. Coquí Poetic Voices was created to bring people together through culture, creativity, memory, and community. Whether you’re stepping to the mic, supporting a local vendor, performing, listening, reconnecting, or simply passing through after being outside all day, this space is for the people. Saturday • June 13, 2026 The People’s Church 163 E 111th St, New York, NY To reserve a vendor table or sign up to perform: DM @NuyoricanUptownSalon or email [email protected] #ElBarrio #PuertoRicanWeekend #Nuyorican #SpokenWord #CommunityCulture

Close your eyes and imagine... a Puerto Rico that is sovereign, free, and self-determined. 🇵🇷✨ Independence isn’t just a destination; it’s a conversation. We aren’t just dreaming of the “what if” we’re planning for the “now what.” How do we build a future that belongs to us, from the soil up? Join @daughtersandsonsofboriken for a night of purpose. Our Casino and Masquerade Fundraiser is more than an event; it’s the foundation for a retreat dedicated to architecting the “After.” Stay tuned for more details. The future is ours to build. 🌊🐚 #PuertoRicoLibre #agentdmz
