Puerto Rico Update is published quarterly by the Fellowship of Reconciliation (FOR) Task Force on Latin America and the Caribbean. The FOR is an interfaith pacifist organization founded in 1915. Puerto Rico Update is compiled from Puerto Rican and U.S. sources, and attempts to present a popular perspective on events in Puerto Rico and on U.S. policy vis-à-vis Puerto Rico. While we do not necessarily endorse all the views presented here, we are dedicated to the goals of peace with justice in Puerto Rico.
