Lighting the night to recall Martí.
For 66 years now, one of the last nights of January is lit up with torches to recall Martí.
In Havana last night, a sea of youth advanced down University Hill to the Fragua Martiana, near the city’s waterfront, to celebrate a date all Cubans know: the birth José Martí. On January 28, 1853, the most universal of all Cubans was born “in a modest house on Paula Street, where the wall overlooked the port,” as writer Jorge Mañach describes it.

THE new Constitution of the Republic of Cuba.
THE new Constitution of the Republic of Cuba, discussed and analyzed by deputies, and enriched by the proposals of the population, was approved by roll-call vote of the National Assembly of People’s Power (ANPP) on December 22, during the closing session of the Second Ordinary Session of its Ninth Legislature, attended by Army General Raúl Castro Ruz, First Secretary of the Party Central Committee; Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez; and José Ramón Machado Ventura, Second Secretary of the PCC.
ON February 24, the Cuban people, exercising their sovereignty, will decide on one of the most important issues for the country: the approval in a popular referendum of the new Constitution.
This is a fully democratic exercise, following from the approval by the National Assembly of People’s Power (ANPP) of the final text, drafted after the popular consultation process in which the entire population was able to participate. This led to the modification of 60% of the draft text through the opinions expressed in more than 133,000 meetings across the country.
