We Puerto Ricans have ancestry that is Spaniard, Taino, and African (some French, Portuguese, and Arabic) and the one least spoken of is the African one.
Let's start screaming that shit loud and proud, yo!
Our music, food, religions, and even our sense of style comes very strongly from the Africans who came to Puerto Rico, some as slaves, some as free people looking for a good life.
We owe the peoples of Africa who made their way there a deep debt of gratitude.
