Caja de la Memoria Viva II is a multimedia exhibit that represents the life of Doña Constancia Colon-Clemente a Black Puerto Rican who migrated to the United States in the 1940s. Upon reflection, it is yet another example of the racial separation and rejection within our own people. Her story is just one of many that could be told.
