The protests in Puerto Rico that besieged the island’s embattled governor, Ricardo A. Rosselló, before he announced on Wednesday that he was resigning, were unlike any San Juan had seen before. Hundreds of thousands of people from all corners of the island jammed highways and surrounded the governor’s mansion.

But they did not just march and shout slogans. They applied pressure in a host of other ways, from singing and dancing to yoga and horseback riding. Activists and celebrities used social media extensively, popularizing hashtags like #RickyRenuncia, #RickyTeBote, #TelegramGate, #RickyLeaks and #PuertoRicoMarcha to amplify their message and inspire more protests.
