| Summary | "La Experiencia Abolicionista de Puerto Rico" by the Sociedad Abolicionista Española is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The text appears to focus on the abolition of slavery in Puerto Rico, detailing the circumstances surrounding the legislation, the challenges faced by the abolitionists, and the societal changes that ensued following emancipation. The opening of the work introduces the context of a report addressed to the Minister of Overseas Territories, emphasizing the amendments to the 1873 abolition law and the subsequent regulations that were adopted. It outlines grievances regarding the enforcement of these regulations and their implications for the newly freed individuals, suggesting that the measures taken often contradicted the spirit of the original law. With references to various documents and testimonies from the Society in favor of abolition, it highlights the society's commitment to ensure that the path toward true emancipation and civil rights is upheld amidst political challenges in Puerto Rico.
