New York City: March for Puerto Rico in the Spirit of Jayuya, Oct. 30

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 30, 2021 AT 1 PM
IN THE SPIRIT OF JAYUYA
200 Avenue C, New York

On October 30th, 1950 Blanca Canales lead a revolutionary uprising taking up arms against US colonial rule in Puerto Rico in the mountain town of Jayuya. That day would become known as El Grito De Jayuya, (The Cry Of Jayuya).

On October 30th, 2021 supporters of Puerto Rican independence will take to the streets demanding Puerto Rican independence and an end to US colonial rule. Bring your flags, instruments, signs, placards, and wear a mask. We meet on the corner of 12th Street and Avenue C in the Lower East Side of NYC at 1pm. There will be speakers, poets and a special announcement by Pro-Libertad.
