Violence and Repression of Puerto Rican Students
Students went on strike again today at Rio Piedras, the main campus of the University of Puerto Rico, in a continuation of the ongoing protests against fee hikes and to keep public education from being privatized. Some protesters tried to occupy buildings and smashed windows, eventually leaving campus when riot police arrived. There have been no report of injuries or arrests so far.

"They fear us because we don't fear them" (Nos tienen miedo porque no tenemos miedo).
