An "urgent, fascinating, and impassioned" (Daniel Immerwahr) history of Puerto Rico's 122 years as a colony of the United States Since its acquisition by the US in 1898, Puerto Rico has served as a testing ground for the most aggressive and exploitative US economic, political, and social policies. The devastation that ensued finally grew impossible to ignore in 2017, in the wake of Hurricane María, as the physical destruction compounded the infrastructure collapse and trauma inflicted by the debt crisis. In Fantasy Island, Ed Morales traces how, over the years, Puerto Rico has served as a colonial satellite, a Cold War Caribbean showcase, a dumping ground for US manufactured goods, and a corporate tax shelter. He also shows how it has become a blank canvas for mercenary experiments in disaster capitalism on the frontlines of climate change, hamstrung by internal political corruption and the US federal government's prioritization of outside financial interests. Taking readers from San Juan to New York City and back to his family's home in the Luquillo Mountains, Morales shows us the machinations of financial and political interests in both the US and Puerto Rico, and the resistance efforts of Puerto Rican artists and activists. Through it all, he emphasizes that the only way to stop Puerto Rico from being bled is to let Puerto Ricans take control of their own destiny, going beyond the statehood-commonwealth-independence debate to complete decolonization.Shipping Notes

Magnet hooks you need!
Size: 4.5", Style: Open
I have been using these all over our shop and helps keep chords, tools and other items off the floor and more organized. I like the ease of the magnet, and it looks like. Built to last. I wish they were not so expensive.

Work great
Item Package Quantity: 6, Color: Black
Relatively strong hooks. The metal I have them on is thin so the magnets arent as steady as I hoped but thats my fault not the hooks. Ample hook space and solidly built

You need these!
Item Package Quantity: 4, Color: Black
These are not really “industrial strength” but they work great and are decent quality, especially for the price. I bought them to use on a sheet metal barn and they hold halters, rakes and other supplies with ease. Out of curiosity I did toss a dewalt drill in one and it held even though I ordered the medium size and the drill didn’t fit super well.

Very useful tools or helmets hanger.
These are quite useful and hold anything that’s less than 10lb. I think it can hold heavier items but I think it’s best to keep it light and the magnet strong enough to make it very convenient to affix it to any metal cabinet or poles.
