Re: Cuba Sanctions

Dear Mr President,

We write to intercede on behalf of the Cuban people, who are facing an appalling humanitarian situation. After nearly sixty years of embargo against their country, the question that must be asked is whether this continuing embargo is worthwhile at all.

Defending our culture is defending the homeland

A redemptive anthem, a city for the first time free from the foreign yoke, and a rebellious history that began with the Mambi, remind us every October 20 why the Cuban people feel tremendously proud to celebrate National Culture Day today.

There are many reasons to commemorate and defend what we understand as our identity.

Considered shield and sword of the nation, a sublime mixture of our deepest roots, Cuban culture constitutes a moral trench that upholds the emancipatory work of our homeland.
