RIP Lawrence
Lawrence in Cuba, 2003, in front of the Che Guevara memorial. Me and my brother went to Cuba in the US-Cuba Youth exchange with the Puerto Rican, Lares and Vieques flags. We, with the other Puerto Ricans in our delegation left flags a different locations. My brother left the Puerto Rican flag a Jose Marti’s tomb, I left the Vieques flag at Guantanamo base (Cuba’s side, their outpost) and Lawrence gave the Lares flag at Che tomb. At each location we gave a short speech making the connection between Cuba and Puerto Rico and why we left that flag at that location.
