HUMANITARIAN CARAVANS
July 14th UPDATE: The 19th US/Cuba Friendshipment Caravan returned to the US today after challenging the US blockade on travel to Cuba and delivering nearly 100 tons of humanitarian aid. Responding to constant pressure from communities all across the US, US officials then returned to the caravan the 32 computers that had been seized on July 3. Press Release.
On June 14th, a school bus left Maine for McAllen,
Texas, carrying
humanitarian
donations and a few Maine people determined to break the blockade
against Cuba. They will then travel, along with other vhicles, to
Tampico, Mexico, the jumping off place for Cuba with the Pastors for Peace Friendshipment Caravan. See their blog for the latest news:
US-Cuba Friendshipment Caravan Blog
Every year
since 1992 the caravans have demonstrated against the injustice of the
U.S. economic blockade against Cuba. Let Cuba Live has been involved
from the very beginning. The bus this year is named "Fernando" after
one of the Cuban Five prisoners unjustly held in U.S. jails.
Recent Past Events
• The documentary "Mission
Against Terror"
was shown by Bernie Dwyer, one of the filmmakers, and Father Geoffrey
Bottoms, international justice advocate, at several locations in Maine
with assistance from LetCubaLive members. The film tells the story of
terrorism against Cuba organized in Florida and how five Cuban men were
defending their nation when arrested. The injustice of their trial, the
cruelty of their sentences, and the suffering visited upon their
families come across loud and clear. It's a story too of constancy and
dedication to ideals. More info at our "Free
the Five!" page and freethefive.org
• U.S.
Political Prisoners and their Families
