My proposal

The civil rights in Puerto Rico have changed throughout the years, some more important than others but however important for the constitution. Since past years, Puerto Rico's major problem in the constitution has been the establishment of laws and a good government. Not only in the laws or government, but also in the economy and rights of the people, which sometimes are questioned. My proposal is to create a new amendment  for th rigth for people have the authority of taking of the power to any governer or official that is not doing any progress or any changes in the isalnd. I will not tolarate the idea that they keep so calm and so many people suffring and with out jobs. my perposition tu you is to  stand up for our island  to have great leaders leading our country and having the dignity and the sensitivity of looking  out for us. Giving us choices of having the possibility of  succes, of having the responsibility,  to feel  safe againg and be able to put our trust againg in thier hands. Give me your support of having againg our Puerto Rico back. This is a figth that we need to figth for our own good. This is our home and we could not let people come and destroy it.

Changes

Here in the island of Puerto Rico did had many changes according to the government and power.  One of the first changes made was in 1964 when Muñoz Marin decided he will not run for governor again. In 1996 was another change that happed in the island. This change was the loss of the Section 936 status. This made that companies that already open will retain the exemption until 2005. This cause for government companies were to be sold to encourage US business advantages.

In 2006, many of the government shut down all school and government offices  during two weeks because of the lack of fundings.  Almost half of th males wer curntly without jobs and the island strugle to borrow money.

Today is no much better than before. Still today there ar still dificult to find jobs for both men and women. vn the politic failed and many congressmen and people that from th senate are corrupts people. This a time verry hard when now a day people just do not trust any one in this island. Many people need are still unemployed thank you to the goverment that fired hundres and hungres of people many day. For me this is shame thing to said becuase i live here but is th truth.

Struggle & Activism of the National Congress for Puerto Ricans Rights

The National Congress for Puerto Ricans Rights is a very peaceful protest group. This group was mostly attack by the police.This did fight back but in a peaceful way. They were the ones organizing pareds and groups of protest. They were not only Puerto Ricans, but any kind of latinos including korean and other type of culture and races.

The first Racial Justice Day was organized by the National Congress of Puerto Rican Rights to galvanize the community against this example of increased racist violence.  One form of protest was the Racial Justice Day. On the day June 3, 1999 it was the celebaration of the anual parade made. That year the theme was the Voice of the Forgotten this was in rememberence of all that had died and suffer brutality by the police.

I will mentioned some of the people killed by police brutality:

1994: The cops killed Anthony Baez, Nicholas Heyward, Shu'ab Abdul Latif, and Felix Junior Jorge.

1995: Anibal Carrasquillo, Yong Xin Huang, Anthony Rosario and Hilton Vega.

1996: Maria Rivas, Lionard Lawton, Frankie Arzuaga and Jose Santos

1997: Librado Sanchez, Donald Donaldson, Deonarime Matan, Reginald Bannerman, William Whitfield, Robert Rey noso and Juval Green. Abner Louima was tortured.

1998 and 1999: Luciano Lazcano and Amadou Diallo were killed. Family members of the young transsexual woman Jolea Lamot--including Nancy Lamot, Ricardo Perez and John Baez, a relative of Anthony Baez--were beaten by cops.

Opression of the National Congress for Puerto ricans Rights

 In the states thier is a group form for the puerto ricans rigths called The national congress of puerto ricans rigths. This group was mistreate in so many ways. One of the most ways that this group was mistreated was in policy brutality, racially motivated violence and criminal justice issues. This affected many young people as propotionate as incarceration and lacks of alternatives to incarceration.


They were mistreated becase they were not tha same raco as the white. There was case with the Mayi family were the police investiagted the murder of latinos kids. The police department  failed to do a vigorous investigation, Because it was white kids killing  Latino kid in Queens, it didn’t have the same cache as if it were reversed. This are the reason why we do not want to be that way. They only see that we can learn only with force. We are people just like every one else.

One of the laws or constitution is the one of freedom of speech. This is the most violeated by the oficials by keeping them no be able  to speek what they think. This was a cruel and uppseting thing to do. Is un constitutional. Many do no see in the sates that they are breaking the sames laws or contitution made by there own nation and we that were not born follow it and the just viloted.

History of the Puertorricans rights

The groups of the puertorricans' rights in the US was founded in 1981 in New York City's South Bronx. One of this group is called the national congress for Puerto Ricans Rights. This group was form dedicated to securing full equality and an end to discri-mination against Puerto Ricans. This organization is best know for against environmental racism, police abuse, racially motivated violence, and other forms of discrimination.


Some of the founders for this group were numbers of Young Lords Party. This organizaction took during the time preiod of 1960s' - 1970s'. Most of this group is form by young latinos and latinas persons. Many of thier concenred s are about the politics in the US and the socia beings of thier neighborhoods and the safety of thier families and friends.

They avocated fr the human and civil rights the puerto ricans. They also had addressed some gender equality for the latinas (girls) and the specific political and envioremetn issue here in Puerto Rico. This orgnization affiliated organizations and local groups by bringing citywide and national support to their local efforts. They also educate and comunicate members and the community about the conditions affecting the Puerto Rican and Latino and Latina community and ways to improve them.This is the organization that looks aout for the rigths that every puerto rican such as latinos as the same for latinas.
