6 Oscar López Rivera Mural in San Germán, Puerto Rico

FALN was an acronym for a paramilitary group who sought Puerto Rico’s independence from 1974 until 1983. Their tactics included the bombing of U.S. targets. One of its notorious leaders was Oscar López Rivera. In 1981, he was convicted to 55 years at a U.S. penitentiary. On January 17, 2017 – three days before leaving office – President Obama granted Rivera clemency. This street art appeared in San Germán to celebrate the event.
