Amin'ny fotoana maha-maro ny Porto Rikàna monina ivelan'ny nosy, nanjary nipetraka ny fanontaniana mikasika izany hoe maha-Porto Rikàna izany. Miresaka momba izany indrindra ny taratasy nosoratan'ilay gadra politika Portorikana Oscar López.
Ao anatin'izany, manome ny heviny izy
Ny maha-Porto Rikàna. Voalohany amin'ny sehatra vaovao natsangana ao amin'ny gazetiboky antserasera La Respuesta ity taratasy ity, natokana hanoratan'i Oscar López Rivera sy hitantarany ny momba azy. Ity ny sombiny amin'izany:
To be Puerto Rican means to me to carry out all the responsibilities that our citizenship demands. It means to struggle to keep our culture, our language, our history, our idiosyncrasies, our music, our dances, our culinary skills, and our roots alive, and to decolonize our minds and our homeland. It means that we should struggle to protect and preserve everything that defines the Puerto Rican nation.
The diasporic identities aren’t synonymous with Puerto Rican identity. i’m not a Nuyorican. i have lived in this country for over five and a half decades. i speak both languages, but Spanish remains my primary language. In the late 60′s a handful of Puerto Ricans put together a journal called ‘the Rican.’ i thought the name was an error. It didn’t survive because just a handful of Ricans read it and identified with it. i use Spanglish like many other diasporic Puerto Ricans do. i enjoy the poetry of Pedro Pietri and the plays written by Miguel Piñero. i believe many diasporic Boricuas can identify with Spanglish, and we can be sure it will continue morphing and evolving.
Ny dikan'ny maha- Porto Rikana amiko dia fanatontosana tsara ny andraikitra rehetra takian'ny mahaolom-pirenena antsika. Ny dikan'izany dia hoe mitolona hihazona ny kolontsaintsika, ny tenintsika, ny tantarantsika, ny hevitra mampiavaka antsika, ny mozikantsika, ny dihintsika, ny fahaizantsika mahandro, sy ny fototra mbola velona, ary hanaisotra amin'ny fanjanahantany ny saintsika sy ny tanindrazantsika. Midika izany fa tokony hitolona hiaro sy hitahiry izay rehetra mamaritra ny firenena Porto Rikàna isika.
Tsy mitovy dika amin'ny mari-panondroana maha-Porto Rikàna ny mari-panondroana maha-am-pielezana (diaspora). Tsy New-Yorkey aho. Nonina tao amin'ity firenena ity nandritra ny dimampolo taona sy tapany aho. Mahay ireo teny roa aho, saingy mijanona ho tenin-dreniko ny teny Espaniola. Tamin'ny fiafaran'ny taompolo 1960, nisy Porto Rikàna azo isaina amin'ny ratsa-tanana niara-nanangana gazety antsoina hoe “the Rican”. Nihevitra aho fa fahadisoana ilay anarana. Tsy naharitra akory ity gazety ity satria Rikàna vitsivitsy monja no mamaky azy sy fantatra ao anatin'izany. Mampiasa teny Spanglish (Espaniola-Anglisy) tahaka ireo Porto Rikàna am-pielezana maro aho. Ankafiziko ny tononkalon'i Pedro Pietri sy ny tantara tsangana nosoratan'i Miguel Piñero. Mino aho fa Boricuas am-pielezana maro no afaka manondro ny tenany amin'ny Spanglish, ary afa-manantena isika fa hitohy hiova sy hivoatra izany.
Nogadraina tao Etazonia nandritra ny telo-polo taona mahery i Oscar López Rivera noho ny foto-keviny ara-politika. Nogadraina nandritra ny 33 taona tao Etazonia i López Rivera, 71 taona, izay voaheloka ho “nanao teti-dratsy hikomiana” sy “teti-dratsy handosirana” izay nahazoany sazy an-tranomaizina 70 taona. Mpitolona hoan'ny fahaleovantenan'i Poerto Rikà, zanatanin'i Etazonia, izy. Mpanao politika, mpanakanto sy olona marobe manana fotokevitra samihafa no niara-nientana hitaky amin'ny filohan'i Etazonia Barack Obama mba hanome famelan-keloka an'i López Rivera, izay nantsoina ho gadra politika nigadra ela indrindra tao amin'ny ilam-bolantany andrefana.
