DID YOU KNOW....?

The  image many people have of Puerto Rico is not a very positive one.  We are seen as lazy people being maintained by the the United States.  However, there is the flip side of the coin.  Here is a video to show you reality....no politics, just numbers.  What do you think?  (The video is in Spanish.)






TASK:  Watch the video and then write your reaction to the video.  Did you know this information already?  Was there anything that stood out for you?  What do you think we can or should do to change this negative image?  (Paragraph: 5-8 sentences).
