Today is my father’s birthday. He would have turned 72. A proud New Yorker and an even prouder Puerto Rican, this day would have meant everything to him. His birthday, the National Puerto Rican Day Parade, and the New York Knick’s winning the championship, all in one. 🗽🇵🇷🏀🏆

My father taught me pride, pride in where we come from, in our people, and in carrying our culture forward. Even though he’s no longer here, I honor him through this work, through memory, and through every space I create for our stories to live on.

Today, I celebrate him. Happy birthday, Daddy. ♥️🌺

Xoxo.

Join us for a special screening of Stealing Cars — a raw and powerful Baltimore story directed by Marly Hernández-Cortés and Stephen Schuyler.

Hosting this screening at Library Nineteen carries deep significance. Located in present-day Fells Point, this space was once known to many Puerto Rican families as “El Barrio” and formerly housed Education Based Latino Outreach (EBLO), founded by Puerto Rican community advocate José Orlando Ruiz (1950–2006).
