"Our people are becoming aware of their own strength, which is what the colonial powers fear," explains Puerto Rican independence leader Rafael Cancel Miranda. In two interviews, Cancel Miranda--one of five Puerto Rican Nationalists imprisoned by Washington for more than 25 years until 1979--speaks out on the brutal reality of U.S. colonial domination, the campaign to free Puerto Rican political prisoners, the example of Cuba's socialist revolution, and the resurgence of the independence movement today.

Puerto Rico: Independence Is a Necessity

Rafael Cancel Miranda

History

Pathfinder Press (NY)

La inquebrantable dignidad, veracidad y entereza de los Cinco Cubanos que son objeto de un caso fabricado por el gobierno norteamericano y que hoy cumplen sentencias draconianas en prisiones federales les ha ganado la admiración y el respeto no solo de destacadas figuras en todo el mundo sino de miles de otros presos. En estas páginas, nos hablan dos de los que los conocieron en la cárcel. Además, relatos sobre la vida carcelaria y resistencia escritos por Gerardo Hernández y Ramón Labañino, y por Elizabeth Palmeiro. El independentista puertorriqueño Rafael Cancel Miranda, quien pasó más de 27 años en prisiones norteamericanas, rinde homenaje al ejemplo de los Cinco Cubanos.
