[#DiaDiBetico] ▪︎ The ongoing battle 🇦🇼 “.. Just as we all have our Doktoor Moises Frumencio Da Costa Gomez that paved the way for an autonomous Antilles, Betico Croes is the architect of Status Aparte within the Dutch Kingdom (the initial road to independence of Aruba) is celebrated today in Aruba. "Respetá derecho di otro, esei ta garantisá bo pas." 🏳 Tribute to a great courageous political activist, wise, rebel and the visionary of his time, sir Gilberto Francois “Betico” Croes. On his birthday he's commemorated with the national holiday known as Dia di Betico. 🌤 A legacy that emphasizes the importance to live a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others. A profound message of strategy, but also behind it a call for unity to believe in a cause bigger and better than ourselves as beings. 💪🏾 "No tin lucha sin sakrifisio, no tin sakrifisio sin gloria!" Long live his legacy and example. Felis dia di Betico 🇦🇼…” ― Gwendell Mercelina, Jr. © ________________ 📸 • @aruba · · · 📶 • #BeticoCroes • #BeticoDay • #Aruba • #25Jan • #Jan25 • #Politics • #Politician • #WisdomSpeaks • #Liberator • #NationalHoliday • #BanHendelKuGwendell • #MemberOfParliament • #Politico • #Parlamentario • #Politika • #GlobalCitizen • #PurposeDriven • #TaMiHendenan • #GwendellMercelina • #wenshow • #tenemiskèrpi • #Curaçao🇨🇼 • #gnius • #keepmesharp
