🇵🇷🎨#ArtIsAWeapon #PuertoRico #Art @chrissotoart. Today's 61st Annual National Puerto Rican Day Parade @prparadenyc will be a celebration of #PRpride, #music and #culture and also a platform to continue to raise awareness about the actual death toll and devastation after #HurricaneMaria. Ten months later, the island is still rebuilding, while a recent Harvard study revealed that more than 4,600 people perished due to the “interruption of medical care," and the federal government's inhumane, inadequate response.

Today's parade route is from 44th to 79th Streets on Fifth Avenue, beginning at 11:00 AM ET, and will air on WABC-TV, Channel 7 @abc7ny, and live stream at www.abc7ny.com. __________________________________ You can help Puerto Rico by: ✔ learning about and #supporting the work of #OurPowerPR: www.ourpowercampaign.org/; ✔ supporting and donating to the work of activist @blackpuertorican #RosaClemente's #PROnTheMap transmedia campaign http://pronthemap.com/; ✔ making a donation at https://buff.ly/2sQ72f2 - @Google (one of the parade's sponsores) will match donations up to $2M. #4656Boricuas #PuertoRicanDayParade #puertoricostrong #WEPA #PRDayParade #TraScapades #ArtIsAWeapon (at National Puerto Rican Day Parade)
