Puerto Rico: Dealing With Natural Disasters

Carmen Collins

Working with Dr. Clara E. Rodriguez, this is my final capstone project for Fordham University's Public Media Masters of Arts (PMMA) program and was inspired by my research for Boquerón Environmental Consortium for Social Justice. Please watch the video documentaries below as it explains the importance of Boquerón, Puerto Rico.

I would like to thank my advisor Dr. Clara E. Rodriguez for all her help.

I would also like to thank those who were featured in my documentary: Professor Nelson Montalvo, Dr. Marla Perez-Lugo, Dr. Cecilio Ortiz-Garcia, Dr. Ryan Mann-Hamilton, Rocio Freytes-Martin, and Amanda Rivera-LeBron.
