Rapid gentrification fueled by disaster capitalism, tax incentives, and tourism— all benefiting people from the U.S.—has left native Puerto Ricans feeling alienated in their own land. In response, local communities have taken to disrupting and reclaiming spaces with acts of visible resistance. Slogans like “Gringo Go Home” powerfully express this dissent, serving as urgent demands to protect Puerto Rico’s land, culture, and identity from continued economic exploitation, displacement, cultural erasure, and systemic marginalization.
