On March 1, 1954, Lolita led a Nationalist Party commando composed of Rafael Cancel Miranda, Oscar Collazo, Irving Flores Rodriguez and Andrés Figueroa Cordero, and served 25 years in prison, until a world-wide campaign with roots in Puerto Rico and Chicago, succeeded in securing their release by President Jimmy Carter in September of 1979.

MISSION

The National Boricua Human Rights Network (NBHRN) is an organization composed of Puerto Ricans in the US and their supporters that educates and mobilizes the Puerto Rican community, the broader Latin American community and other people of conscience regarding issues of justice, peace and human rights. Our priorities include: (1) An end to the continuing political repression and criminalization of progressive sectors of the Puerto Rican community; and 2) The decontamination, development, and return of the island of Vieques to its people.
