Corazón del Medio Oeste (Heart of the Midwest)

The heart is adorned with two versions of the Puerto Rican flag. One side has the color version with the three red stripes represent the blood from the brave warriors. The two white stripes represent the victory and peace that they would have after gaining independence. The white star represented the island of Puerto Rico. The blue represents the sky and blue coastal waters. The black and white flag represents mourning over the mismanagement and exploitation of the island and its locals. The base is green to represent the lush and fertile agriculture of the island. This heart is meant to represent the often-forgotten community of Puerto Ricans that call KC home.
