Stop War Threats Against Cuba! End Inhuman Oil Blockade!

In response to Washington’s escalating aggression against Cuba, solidarity groups across the United States have started to organize protests, speak outs, and educational teach-ins to counter U.S. government propaganda and mobilize popular opposition to U.S. warmongering. We publish here information about two such actions recently called in Miami and New York City. We encourage the largest possible turnout in each case and the emulation of such solidarity activities across the United States and other countries.

Miami Coalition Raises Funds for Cuban Pacemaker Campaign

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.
