As a new January 28th and the commemoration of the 172nd anniversary of the birth of our Apostle, José Martí, approaches, we call upon all those who feel they are heirs of Martí, whether they live in Cuba or not, of any generation, to honor the presence of Martí in their lives, in their daily lives, in their families or communities, in their dreams, in their imagination.
