[Lasa] Puerto Rican Independence

[Marc Becker]

Ecuatorianistas,

I have a college Margaret Power <marmacpower05 at yahoo.com> who is working 
on a project on Puerto Rican independence movements. She has a  letter 
from a solidarity activists from Jan. 31, 1958 that says:

Admiro la decision del Parlamento de Ecuador. Es etraordinario un gesto 
así de solidaridad continental.

Does anyone know anything about a congressional resolution in favor of 
Puerto Rican independence around that time?

Also, Margaret has also run into Antonio Parra Velasco as a supporter of 
Puerto Rican independence. Does anyone know anything more about his 
involvement or organized support for Puerto Rico in the 1950s-1960s, or 
where she could perhaps find more information on this topic?

Thanks--marc.
