I have been living in front of the beach for 4 years. During these 4 years, I have met a bunch of talented individuals.

Their talents have revealed themselves in many ways whether it’s by me asking or someone else telling me about these hidden talents.

Nelson Featured by Calle 13

This morning I watched a video that Residente Calle 13, one of my favorite artists, shared of Nelson.

Talented Artists Supporting Campamento Contra la Junta

Before I saw this video, I saw Nelson as the polite, hard working guy on the beach. He always said hello to me and Lucy. He had the biggest smile and a contagious positive energy.

A few weeks ago, as I visited el Campamento En Contra de La Junta, I ran into Nelson. We were glad to see another hard working individual protesting against Promesa.

We chatted with him, we hugged him, and I thanked him for everything he was doing.

But little did I know about Nelson's musical talents.

Many Hard Working Young People at the Campamento Contra La Junta

Nelson is an example of the many hard-working, young men and women who are fighting for the rights of Puerto Ricans.

It is our job to let everyone know that those in front of the Tribunal Federal are very talented individuals. Individuals who have paused their lives to fight for real democracy.

I am happy Nelson got to feature his awesome talents. But Nelson, with the help of Residente, did something very important.

He showed millions of Residente’s fans, one of the many faces of the hard-working individuals protesting the injustice of the Promesa Law.
