On today’s show we welcome Nicole Alvarez. She's the Co-Founder & Coordinator of Actívate PR, which is a collective dedicated to bringing awareness to the importance of Puerto Rican independence from a present day lens. We’re going to discuss predatory gentrification in Puerto Rico today. There’s been a number of news stories over the years bringing attention to the policies contributing to the pushing out of Boricuas on the island in favor of affluent individuals, mostly white, to move to Puerto Rico. Some examples include the Jones Act, la Junta, privatization, tax laws like Act 60 and others. So, we’re going to talk to Nicole about some of these policies and how they are impacting the island as well as what the Puerto Rican government is doing to combat gentrification...HINT - NOT MUCH!
