Turning Tides: Piecing Together the Present will discuss the last 150 years of Puerto Rican history. The first episode, The Eagle's Ascent, will cover the period from 1870 to 1901, in which Spain and America fight for dominion over Puerto Rico under the racist and false pretense of wanting to "civilize" the island.
