Puerto Rico has been a colony of the United States since 1898, as a result of the Spanish-American War. As part of that War, the United States Armed Forces invaded Puerto Rico on July 25, 1898.  Puerto Ricans are still struggling to attain sovereignty and independence.

The Puerto Rican Independence Party (PIP) was founded in 1946 with the purpose of seeking and obtaining independence by every pacific mean available. The PIP is committed to achieving Puerto Rico's national freedom and laying the foundation for a sound, responsible transition from our present day colonial government to full-flegged independence.

This is the English version of our web site.   You will find brief explanations of how we visualize, plan and expect an independent Puerto Rico to be.  You will also find articles and news related to the PIP or to our struggle to achieve independence.

We hope that by launching this English version of independencia.net it becomes a powerful tool to reach out to the international community and promote solidarity with our demand for freedom and justice.

We update our web-site frequently. You are welcome to visit any time and get the latest news about the PIP. We appreciate the time you take to search our site. That is why we encourage you to write us with your comments, criticism, thoughts, questions and suggestions. You may reach us by e-mail at: wjrb@independencia.net
