Description

Mano dura contra el crimen or Strong Hand Against Crime, was a public policy crafted in the 1990s by Pedro Rosello (then governor) The purpose was to take a stronger stance towards the crime wave affecting Puerto Rico during this time. This public policy, characterized by the use of excessive force, profiling and questionable policing practices, continues to shape the relation the Police of Puerto Rico have with the people they are supposed to serve. This painting is a satire of a Puerto Rico Tourism Company ad campaign for Isla aventura or the Isle of Adventure. While the tourism company touts the island as a fun place filled with adventures, we the people have to contend with a different kind of adventure. Adventure #1 Police Brutality
