"WE ARE THE SPIRIT OF LOLITA LEBRON," said artist Lillian Mulero on March 1, 2016, when she organized a demonstration starting at the Plaza de Armas, marching through Old San Juan to the Capital building overlooking the sea.

In the SAN JUAN STAR daily newspaper, she was quoted as saying, "I will walk the streets of Old San Juan, dressed as Lolita Lebron, to demonstrate that even today the events of 1950 and the action by Lolita Lebron in Washington D.C., hold a deep resonance with our contemporary story of Puerto Rico and its relationship to the USA."
