BOOK: COVER, LAYOUT, COPY

Pedro Albizu Campos was a martyr who fought for Puerto Rican independence. Despite torture and imprisonment by the United States, his message is strong as ever.  The struggles of oppression and colonization are depicted by low visibility and bold dissections of type. Sentences expand beyond margins, eventually falling off the page to portray the growth of his message. Albizu's words were suppressed, but his voice never died. This book commemorates his life and legacy.

THE PHYSICAL CONDITION OF ALBIZU IS SO DELICATE THAT HE CANNOT SPEAK, MUCH LESS WALK, AND HE ONLY ANSWERS OR GESTICULATES TO HIS FRIENDS AND RELATIVES BY MOVING HIS HEAD TO SAY YES OR NO.
