Boricua in Texas: Houston

Houston

I always have a hard time shooting the Houston skyline. It's difficult to try to snap a picture while you are driving 70 mph on I-45. But Gabe was doing the driving yesterday, so I got to snap some pics.

What is a boricua?

Puerto Ricans often proudly identify themselves as Boricua, from the Taíno word Boriken, to illustrate their recognition of their Taíno heritage. The word Boriken, which translates to "the great land of the valiant and noble Lord", was used by the original Taíno Indian population to refer to the island of Puerto Rico before the arrival of the Spanish. The use of the word Boricua has been popularized in the island and abroad by descendents of Puerto Rico heritage, commonly using the phrase, "Yo soy Boricua" ("I am Boricua", or "I am Puerto Rican") to identify themselves as Puerto Ricans.
