This past weekend, in the middle of the year’s biggest game, we were entranced by the half time show by Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, known professionally as Bad Bunny. Fresh off his historic Grammy win the weekend prior, the artist brought together his Puerto Rican heritage, impeccable storytelling, and dynamic visuals to create a stunning performance we will not soon forget. Infusing every second of the show with Puerto Rican culture and messages of unity and love triumphing over hate, the performance inspired us through recognizing the complex network of identities and backgrounds that make up our country. Closing out the set with the title track of his most recent album Debí Tirar Más Fotos, Bad Bunny recited the names of the many countries that make up the Americas urging us to reconsider the borders that divide us and to see them instead as threads connecting us to a larger, shared whole.
