The New Puerto Rican Independence Movement (Spanish: Nuevo Movimiento Independentista Puertorriqueño, NMIP) was a left-wing pro-independence organization in Puerto Rico. Founded in 1993 by former members of the Puerto Rican Socialist Party, one of its primary leaders was Carlos Gallisá. In 2004, the NMIP merged with the National Hostosian Congress to form the Hostosian National Independence Movement (MINH).
Famous quotes containing the words independence and/or movement:
“In a famous Middletown study of Muncie, Indiana, in 1924, mothers were asked to rank the qualities they most desire in their children. At the top of the list were conformity and strict obedience. More than fifty years later, when the Middletown survey was replicated, mothers placed autonomy and independence first. The healthiest parenting probably promotes a balance of these qualities in children.”
—Richard Louv (20th century)
“...I lost myself in my work and never felt that marriage would give me the security I wanted. I thought that through the trade union movement we working women could get better conditions and security of mind.”
—Mary Anderson (1872–1964)
