Puerto Rico belongs to, but is not a part of the U.S. Since the invasion of 1898, some have advocated for the full integration into the union as a state. In 2020, there will be another non-binding plebiscite on whether or not Puerto Rico should become a state. Join CJ and Kuyo as they explore the idea of statehood for Puerto Rico, dispel some myths, and question the narrative of the statehood movement.
