Fifty people attended a meeting at Florida International University in Miami on October 21, 2025, to hear reports from four Cuba solidarity activists who had just returned from the island. “We’ve got to end the blockade! And the fight to do that inside the United States will be decisive.”
The Miami Coalition to End the U.S. Blockade of Cuba held a successful educational and fundraising event on the evening of September 5 at Florida International University’s main campus. Despite stormy weather, 30 people attended and raised just over $2,000 for the national Saving Lives Campaign, which aims to send cardiac pacemakers to Cuba. The effort addresses a shortage of vital medical devices caused by the U.S. blockade.
