One of the pictures I took from the Museum of the City of New York is of a Young Lords party poster. I found the Young Lords very interesting as they were originally a Puerto Rican gang from Chicago before forming into a national political and civil rights movement group. There were three New York based branches which lead to a lot of Puerto Ricans using these branches to get involved in the movement. The goal being to educate and bring awareness of the history and struggle of Puerto Ricans.Being Puerto Rican myself and living in New York all my life it was surprising to me that I had never heard of them before. Although it was a Puerto Rican Based group there were still members of all sorts of races, as the main goal was to bring attention to the shared terrible living conditions and experiences of all groups of people. There were inspired by the Black Panther party and were also controversial as our tour guide explained to us giving an example of when the Young Lords staged an occupation of Lincoln Hospital in The Bronx as a protest for better health care and better service by the hospitals staff.
