It's #July25 in #PuertoRico

122nd anniversary of the US invading the island.
68th anniversary of Constitution Day
42nd anniversary of the Cerro Maravilla tragedy.
1st anniversary of @ricardorossello announcing his resignation as governor.

Welcome to colonialism.
What struck me about the events of last year was how Rosselló was resigning minutes before one of the most notable dates in PR history. It was as if he couldn't do it ON the 25th, but it was pretty damn close to the 25th. LR published its story about it on July 25 at 12:12 am.
Last summer at this time, it was SUCH A BLUR. We lost track of the date and time. Still intense what happened back then.
