POCA POLICÍA, MUCHA DIVERSIÓN EN EL FREEDOM RALLY

Written by IÑAKI ESTÍVALIZ Posted September 23, 2018 Filed Under: COLUMNS, Talking Joints Memo

Como una pandemia de mandrágoras de los históricos ahorcados, bajo los árboles, cubriendo las colinas y las explanadas del Common, como una manta cannábica sobre la yerba del parque, miles de jóvenes y adultos fumaban marihuana en porros, pinchos, vaporizadores, pipas y toda clase de parafernalia.

SPECIAL FEATURE: THE HURRICANE CONTINUES

Written by MICHELLE SANTIAGO CORTÉS Posted February 1, 2018 Filed Under: FEATURES, Non-fiction

Luisa Mercedes, 53, is from Aibonito, a mountain municipality in Puerto Rico haunted by a local myth involving a llorona (Spanish for “crier”). She paints an apocalyptic picture of a world ravaged by wind and water: “We saw the cars under water where we were staying. We saw a light post ripped out at the root.” She’s wearing jeans and a puffer jacket zipped up to her chin.

SPECIAL FEATURE: WAITING FOR RECIPROCITY

Written by SARAH BETANCOURT Posted January 17, 2018 Filed Under: FEATURES, NEWS+OPINIONS, Non-fiction

Springfield and Holyoke in particular have had an influx of displaced Puerto Ricans, coming to stay with their families, in hotels, homeless shelters, and with friends. Beyond the question of what to do for housing as winter settles in comes the concern over employment, and more specifically, what to do for people who have licensure and years of education in their professions.
