About the Book

"La Lucha Por La Independencia de Puerto Rico" es un ensayo histórico de la historia de los intentos de liberación de Puerto Rico del dominio colonial de España, en el siglo XIX; del colonialismo estadounidense desde 1898 hasta la actualidad.

Este libro fue escrito en 1949, como un esquema para los historiadores. Pero lo que es más importante, es el relato de un testigo presencial de la historia de Puerto Rico que se ha mantenido fuera de los libros oficiales de historia del país. El autor participó en el ascenso y apogeo del Partido Nacionalista, y en 1936, junto con el resto de la dirección del partido, fue condenado a diez años de prisión y exilio en una penitenciaría federal en Atlanta, Georgia, y en Manhattan, ciudad de Nueva York.

¿Por qué compartir con los lectores una nueva edición luego de casi cincuenta años de la primera publicación? Porque Puerto Rico sigue siendo una colonia de los Estados Unidos. Aunque la tecnología moderna es familiar para muchos isleños y existe una apariencia de prosperidad económica, los puertorriqueños no tienen poder político para decidir sobre políticas económicas, comerciales y políticas.

El fuerte impulso actual de algunos políticos en Washington hacia la anexión de Puerto Rico a los Estados Unidos, y el cambio a favor de la estadidad de organizaciones e individuos progresistas en ese país que alguna vez apoyaron la independencia de la isla, son todas razones para publicar nuevamente esta edición.

La estadidad significará la desaparición de un país latinoamericano que tiene sus propias expresiones culturales, características únicas y necesidades que no están en consonancia con las necesidades de los Estados Unidos. El trato a los puertorriqueños - como a los nativos hawaianos desde la concesión de la estadidad a ese archipiélago, y a los mexicanos que vivían en los territorios del oeste tomados en el siglo XIX - seguirá siendo el de ciudadanos de segunda clase desposeídos de su identidad nacional y soberanía. Para Estados Unidos, Puerto Rico es ante todo un bastión militar desde el que amenazar la integridad del resto de América Latina y una fuente de carne de cañón en tiempos de guerra.

Las notas al pie - que no están en el texto original - son breves aclaraciones para los lectores que no saben nada de la historia de Puerto Rico. Se han cambiado algunos términos para actualizar y llamar la atención sobre el hecho de que el paso del tiempo no ha visto una diferencia fundamental en la relación entre Puerto Rico y los Estados Unidos.

Además, el lector debe tener en cuenta que América son todas las Américas y no exclusivamente la porción de América del Norte ocupada por los Estados Unidos.
