"We are not a training ground. We're not a chessboard. We're not a quiet obedient shore.. This fight is older than their empire and it lives in every single one of us."

🧵 As we head into #NoKings and as we honored #IndigenousPeoplesDay this week, I want to give more context to this piece and the one I made for No Kings in June.

Buiti, I am a disabled illustrator in Borikén/Puerto Rico, and I focus on native flora, fauna, & Taino art 👋
If you're unable to attend a #NoKings protest in person on Saturday, there is a virtual rally you can join 🖤 Live captioning will be available. More info: https://mobilize.us/s/Xb7I4p #SinReyes

As part of our ongoing commitment to engage with communities across the state, we recently had the privilege of visiting the vibrant Humboldt Park neighborhood in Chicago — a living testament to the strength, resilience, and rich heritage of the Puerto Rican community.

The correct name of the Island that my people(Taino) named it was Borinquen or Boriken.

1492, the year we discovered some Spanish guys lost at sea.

Those of us with roots in Puerto Rico (a.k.a. Borikén = "homeland") are proud of our European and African roots too, but we're still Taíno and still here, as are our cousins across Turtle Island and beyond!

Happy Indigenous People's Day!

But we keep our traditions alive. We’re boricua, from Boriken. And today, our island is suffering from modern-day colonialism. It has always involved resource extraction and native displacement, even moreso now with the “tax breaks.”

Our island is not your haven. It’s our home. 🇵🇷💕

To address some recent BS...

I'm proud to be of the Taíno of Borikén (Puerto Rico), who met Columbus. He wrote: "...we could subjugate them all and make them do whatever we want".

We lost a lot of people and parts of our culture, but WE'RE STILL HERE, and VERY proud of who we are. 😁

¡WEPA! 🇵🇷

I have a whole calendar of Puerto Rican abstract landscape illustrations!

(Borikén- or Borinquen- is the precolonial, indigenous Taino name for our island.)
Borikén | Calendars — TORO
Keep track of the year with the Borikén Any Year Wall Calendar and a new abstract landscape scene from Puerto Rico each month.

Theres something magical about fishing fresh from the ocean and cooking up a delicious meal, eating it under a coconut tree, and enjoying the sun. You cant do that in Chicago 🥶

I never want to leave my beautiful island again.

Boriken 🇵🇷

🇵🇷🇺🇸 Did you know?

Puerto Ricans have been U.S. citizens by birth since 1917, thanks to the Jones–Shafroth Act. This landmark legislation granted American citizenship to all Puerto Ricans, securing their right to live and work in the U.S.

Claro que si, y se va’ a lograr. My wife is from Caguas and I’m from Ponce. I grew up in New Haven, Worcester, Florida, D.R. and live in Chicago. It’s good to know that there are people out here fighting for the independence of Borikén.
