Plea to Congress  “You, citizens of a free fatherland, with its own laws, its own institutions, and its own flag, can appreciate the unhappiness of the small and solitary people that must await its laws from your authority… when you acquire the certainty that you can found in Puerto Rico a republic like that founded in Cuba and Panama… give us our independence and you will stand before humanity as…a great creator of new nationalities and a great liberator of oppressed peoples.” May 5 th 1916 Luis Munoz

Ruling PR  Occupation  General Nelson A. Miles  Americans were there to “bring you protection, not only to yourselves but to your property, to promote your prosperity, and bestow upon you the immunities and blessings of the liberal institutions of our government.”
