The SOMOS Conference in San Juan, Puerto Rico is unofficially a political party for New York’s government officials and affiliates while they allegedly make backroom deals that decide the fate of our city and state.
In the wake of Hurricane Fiona, which devastated the island in September, some are galvanizing more on the ground efforts to keep the spotlight on recovery for local communities.
Jonathan Soto, the coordinator for Movimiento Victoria Ciudadana in the Diaspora and a former city hall staffer, has a pretty “anti-SOMOS” stance. He will be attending the conference this year, but heavily criticized the “viper’s nest” that the conference has become. Soto said that groups that are community-led, like, have been operating for a long time and deserve more financial support during this time of “disaster capitalism.
Puerto Rican Activist David Galarza works for a union and will also be attending SOMOS while organizing the resistance tour.
