Puerto Rico,La Tierra Donde Nací. Fue en el Pueblo de YAUCO Donde mis Ojos Vieron la luz del día por primera vez en el año 1950 🇵🇷❤️

I love these old videos.

great video and everyone was skinny!! 🤔

La película completa dura 50 minutos, o algo así. Me dan ganas de llorar cada vez que lo veo.

Te falto las Danzas y las Retreatas Bomberos , Carnaval y las competencias del mejor Traje de Danzas ,Juan Morales Campo en la Plaza de Ponce PR

Me gusta mucho esta película antigua s.

Qué hermoso era mi Borinquen cuando no existía el reguetón

Si se fijan, al minuto 9:36 vemos a la entonces Alcaldesa de San Juan, Felisa Rincón de Gautier conversando sentada al lado de un caballero con espejuelos.

This is a great video! My husband and I bought a house in Luquillo in June, we’ve been her almost 2 months and we are loving it!!

To learn true history of Boriquen check out these books 📚: Fantasy Island, by, Ed Morales; Harvest Of Empire, by, Juan Gonzales-book and the documentary.

Thank great video enjoyed ver much!!

amazing video!

Beautiful video

Buen documental.

TO PAUI: I KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT I LIVED AND STUDIED IN BOTH PLACES ALL THEVWAY TO COLLEGE. DURING MY STAY IN THE MAINLAND WHILEIN SCHOOL, THREE ITALUAN KIDS JUMPED ME AND BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF ME FOR BEING WHAT THEY CALLED ME A "SPIC". LUCKILY I GOT EVEN LATER ON. YOU KNOW, A GOOD OLD "AN EYE FOR AN EYE AND A TOITH FOR A TOOTH" TO TEACH THOSE "GUINEAS". THAT 'S HOW I GOT INTRODUCED TO RACISM, SOMETHING I HAD NEVER EXPERIENCED IN MY HOME LAND.

It used to be great.

Waow un sueño quisiera viajar en el tiempo.

Esta era la propaganda con la que USA celebraba el establecimiento del estado libre asociado ante el mundo para dar la impresión de que esa nación caribeña había sido descolonizada.

Los montes estaban virgenes. Ahora no ves una montaña que no tenga una casa encima.

I didn’t know it was so put together

Todos los que salen de su país, son mas patriotas fuera del país que los vio nacer, que dentro del mismo…

A BEAUTIFUL PUERTO RICO, WITH CLOSE FAMILY TIES, HIGH MORAL VALUES, VERY, VERY LOW CRIME RATE WITH LOTS OF RESPECT IN THE SOCIETY, NO POLITICAL CORRUPTION. JUST A GREAT PLACE TO LIVE, HAVE A FAMILY AND RAISE KIDS, WAY BETTER THAN IN THE CONTINENTAL U.S.

Everyone in shape, no fast foods!!! Today Heart ,tiroids, diabetes diseases due to !!!!??🤔🤫

You forget to mention Cuba because they both the same

Correction>> coconut water not coconut milk, we didn't get pilgrims we got Spaniards and is La Bomba not Bamba

Como nos vendían. 2022

Un video a la promoción y desarrollo del turismo, lo cual se a convertido la industria mas lucrativa en la isla hoy día. Solo Puerto Rico comparte una historia que precede la nación a la cual pertenece USA y el encanto del ayer. Puerto Rico USA.

Hi How are you doing ? Been Long Time ...

🇵🇷🇺🇲🇵🇷

Comment by Carmencita: Where they indicate that the third largest city is Mayaguez, the video show Ponce.... go figure.

POR FAVOR QUE APAREZCA ( SUSAN SOLTERO) RODANDO POR LAS PICADAS DE HORMIGAS POR TODO EL MORRO.......

It use to be a real paradise with respect, no corruption, secured 7/24 and prosperity. Now is all the apposite.

"Nobody Says Goodbye, Only Hasta Luego" AKA: Y No Te Digo Adios, Te Digo, Hasta Siempre......Respeta, Respeta!

Alguien me podría decir el nombre de la música al principio

The only things that makes this film historical is the double typo at the beginning (it should've read hysterical) and that it's old. (1953) I find no value except for american tourists propaganda. I've seen Cuban and Hawai'ian reels and they seem and feel the same, perhaps made by the same company.

The Golden Age of the island. Right now is trash land and wasteland.

never forget the jayuya revolt

The dance shown is not Bomba!

lol by the locals

Comment by Carmencita: The dancers look more like dancers from the "islands" than Puerto Rico.

Columbus colonized and enslaved the true people of Borinquen and change its name to Puerto Rico. The people of the islands were forced to mine gold for spain if they could not meet their quota of gold one of their hands would be cut off the people of all the carribean islands suffered the same fate. When they finally managed to gain freedom from Spanish colonial rule the United States invaded and took control of the island. To this day the United States impose heavy taxes on Puerto Rico while offering tax breaks to Americans. All the while the historical artifacts of the people of Borinquen are auctioned off to private collectors and kept under lock and key they say that there are no Boriqua Tainos with false claims of the peoples extinction. This is lie.

?!

Con todas las necesidades y carencias con las que se vivían en ese entonces, según cuentan la gente que lo vivieron, pero daría cualquier cosa por vivir en esa época y no en esta época de patas arriba con todo y su degeneración del regueton.

Forced Captured in 1898 to feed there war machine

The video never mentioned that the United States (US) militarily invaded this paradise in 1898 to make her a US colony. Five years prior to this video, the United Nations (UN) had prohibited colonialism in its Charter. The US, nevertheless, refused to comply! On October 30, 1950, Puerto Rican nationalists staged an insurrection to overthrow the US from Puerto Rico. It was unsuccessful, but it did force the US to try to hide her colony from the international community. 2 years later, the US fooled the UN into believing that Puerto Rico had obtained self-government via, the “Commonwealth of Puerto Rico”. The following year, the US asked the UN to remove Puerto Rico from its list of colonies. Today, Puerto Rico does not appear on the UN’s list of colonies, although the UN holds a hearing every year for Puerto Rico decolonization. The Puerto Rican nationalists attacked in 1954 the US House of Representative to prove to the world that Puerto Rico still remains a US colony. Puerto Rico has been a US colony for the past 124 years. The US has ignored 40 UN resolutions asking her to immediately return Puerto Rico’s sovereignty to the Puerto Ricans. Today, more Puerto Ricans live away from our national territory. About half of the Puerto Ricans living in Puerto Rico live in poverty. China, having 4 times the population of the US, has eradicated poverty in her nation. The US, the so-called “leader of the free world”, however, can’t! If the 9 million Puerto Ricans worldwide don’t engage in permanent resistance to force the US to comply with international law, Puerto Rico will remain a US colony forever. The ball is in the Puerto Ricans’ court. What will we do?

A video promoting colonialism only that.

This video is so racist in the way it portray us.

Que falsedad con LA realidad...colonialismo😢

Algunos video no dicen la verdad estan exagerando.

I spend the most miserable months of my life in that island and I never want to go back.

So much propaganda.... -_- I wish I could learn more about my taino roots... this video is more scary than beautiful...

Esto es propaganda con falsedades

American propaganda to show off their possession. The steel drumming is not part of the Puertorican culture.
