I didn’t know this myth!!! =]
In Greek mythology, Echo was an Oread (a mountain nymph) who loved her own voice. Zeus loved consorting with beautiful nymphs and visited them on Earth often. Eventually, Zeus’s wife, Hera, became suspicious, and came from Mt. Olympus in an attempt to catch Zeus with the nymphs.
Sometimes the young and beautiful nymph Echo would distract and amuse Zeus’ wife, Hera, with long and entertaining stories while Zeus took advantage of the moment to ravish the other mountain nymphs. When Hera discovered the trickery, she was so annoyed she punished the talkative Echo by taking away her voice, except in foolish repetition of another’s shouted words. Thus, all Echo could do was repeat the voice of another.

Puerto Ricans Demand Release of Political Prisoner Oscar Lopez Rivera ★
San Juan, May 29 (Prensa Latina) - Dozens of people demanded the release of Puerto Rican political prisoner Oscar Lopez Rivera, who turns begins his 31st year in jail in the U.S. for fighting for the independence of Puerto Rico.
The demand for the release of Lopez Rivera, whom the government believes led the extinct National Liberation Armed Forces (FALN) of Puerto Rico in Chicago and New York, occurred at the Capitol, headquarters of the Legislative Assembly, in the entry of the so-called Old San Juan.
In this way protesters joined the demand of various political, social and religious sectors demanding the release of one of the oldest political prisoners in the dungeons of the northern nation.
The protesters wore shirts with the claim of Freedom for Oscar Lopez Rivera that has now become the slogan of fighting for his release.
Lopez Rivera, 69 years old, was charged and convicted of seditious conspiracy, a legal concept that the state does not have to prove and is aimed at those conpiring to overthrow the government legitimately constituted.
He stressed that, as Pedro Albizu Campos, Lolita Lebron and Rafael Cancel Miranda, Puerto Rican nationalist martyrs and heroes who paid their daring of fighting for the independence of Puerto Rico with years in prison, Lopez Rivera has given his life to his country.
