I’m a historian on Vieques, a Puerto Rican island the U.S. Navy bombed for 60 years. I was arrested several times for protesting the Navy on Vieques, which is now a Superfund site (and is being gentrified). Many locals with cancer – including myself – blame it on contaminants from the bombing. AMA!
