X-VANDALS "TODOS SOMOS MACHETERO" @ Puerto Rican Independence Rally www.x-vandals.com

Puerto Rico is the oldest colony in the western hemisphere. It was first colonized by Spain in 1493 and was under Spanish rule for 400 years until the Spanish American War in 1898, since then the US has colonized Puerto Rico. Throughout that 500 year history Puerto Ricans have struggled for their independence. On September 23rd in 1868 there was a Puerto Rican uprising against Spanish colonial rule and Puerto Ricans have always come together and celebrated that uprising. On September 23rd, 2004 the FBI assassinated Filiberto Ojeda Rios, a Puerto Rican independence leader in an effort to destroy the spirit of Puerto Rican independence. In 2005, 2006 and 2007 the RICANSTRUCTION Netwerk, a group of anti-authoritarian artists organized Marches and Rallies for Puerto Rican independence and in the memory of Filiberto at the United Nations in NYC. On September 23rd of 2007 X-VANDALS performed at the event in support of Puerto Rican independence. The track that they are performing is called "TODOS SOMOS MACHETERO" from their debut album THE WAR OF ART. For more information on Filiberto check out FILIBERTO: THE CLANDESTINE INTERVIEW on Youtube.

Boricua youth using Gringo technology to voice their rage over the rape and enslavement of the Tainos by Christopher Columbus, the demon from Italy, decimation of a beautiful, peaceful Taino culture by Cristian driven Spanish royal/Catholic forces seeking gold and souls for the church, to the treachery of the USA's stealing of Boriquen thru its phoney "Spanish-American War" and take Puerto Rico as a war prize. Despierta Boricua!

@AdanALW EXACTLY, ITS LIKE UR READING MY MIND. every since they came her the europeans have been using native people to clean THEIR DIRTY WORK. and then they drag us black people to america to do THEIR HARD WORK. and now that we have so called "freedom" they are trying to kill us off, AND WHEN I SAY US I MEAN MY PEOPLE, YOUR PEOPLE, AND ALL NATIVE AMERICANS RATHER YOU ARE TAINOS, HAWAIIANS, MEXICANS. they are tryin to kill us off,

[AdanALW]

The Tainos, our ancestors were surviving fine on their own until this European shitstem came crashing down upon them. Puerto Ricans were making steps to run their own situation when the US devil-system came crashing down upon them too. Since then we've been the ones drafted to fight their wars, coerced to and exploited to clean up their streets and make the cogs of they system turn. If it weren't for the conquered, enslaved and colonized people, they shitstem wouldn't be able to work.
