How did the American rule of Puerto Rico harm Puerto Ricans?
Americans are imperfect Imperialists with marked fluctuations between exploitation and a need to do the right thing.Puerto Rico like Alaska both began the 20th Century under the military rule of the US with an appointed government. In 1900 some form of popular government was established under the Foraker Act which provided Puerto Rico an advocate as a non-voting Resident Commissioner to the US Congress and by 1917 the Jones Act granted them US Citizenship, a bill of rights and a Legislature.Harry Truman gave them their first Puerto Rican born Governor in 1946 and in 1948 the right to elect their own Governor and in 1950 Puerto Rico gained the right to a referendum on their own futiure. By 1952 it was Estado Libre Asociado or a Commonwealth.Not a perfect solution for many and and an imperfect conflict resolution for some. There remains a small minority that continue to seek Independence just as there is in both Alaska and Hawaii who have achieved Statehood.
