Cultural relevance

Along with Yo Protesto, this album is considered to be representative of the manifestations and rebellions of the time.[2]

The song "Antonia murió de un balazo" is about the murder of student Antonia Martínez by a police officer during the 1970 riots at the University of Puerto Rico at Río Piedras.[3][4]
