Marching to the US Consulate

This September 12th will mark the eighth year of
criminal imprisonment in the U.S. of 5 heroic Cubans
for defending their people from Miami based anti-Cuban
terrorism. For almost eight years these 5 men have
endured months of illegal solitary confinement,
interrogation, and a long legal process that is
constantly corrupted under pressure from the US
government. 

Please join us on this international day of action,
along with other Cuban 5 committees around the world,
to demand that the 5 Cuban Heroes do not see another
anniversary away from their families and in prison.

Organized by: Free the Cuban 5 Committee-Vancouver
