Ep71 Is Puerto Rico A Colony?

In this episode of Chronicles & Cocktails, Josué explores the complete political history of Puerto Rico — from the Taíno cacicazgos and Carib conflicts before Columbus, to the Spanish imperial system of viceroyalties and captaincies general, the 1898 change of sovereignty, the U.S. military government, the Foraker Act, the Jones Act, and the creation of the Estado Libre Asociado. This episode explains how Puerto Rico’s political status evolved over more than 500 years and why the debate over status continues today.
