Celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month. In this episode of 'A Black Executive Perspective' Podcast, host Tony Tidbit discusses the complexities of Puerto Rican culture and history with Adrian Alvarado, a Puerto Rican American actor, and author. The episode explores racism within Hispanic culture, the historical colonization of Puerto Rico by Spain, and the United States, and the ongoing political and economic challenges faced by Puerto Ricans. Alvarado sheds light on the often-overlooked narrative of Puerto Rico as an oppressed U.S. colony, the strategic significance of the island, and the racial and cultural dynamics affecting Puerto Ricans today. He also shares his personal experiences and insights from his upcoming memoir 'Flipping My Script'. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding Puerto Rico's status, the island's struggle for autonomy, and the impact of U.S. governance on its people.
