47 years ago on April 15th 1961 the exiled Cuban counter 
revolutionaries with the backing of the US government and 
the CIA invaded Cuba at the Bay of Pigs. The US and 
reactionary Cubans suffered a huge blow in their attempt 
to crush the powerful Cuban Revolution. The US failed to 
overthrow the government of Cuba and Fidel Castro in the 
US’s first major defeat in Latin America. This victory of 
revolutionary Cuba brought hope and inspiration to other 
Latin American people. It elevated the confidence of Latin 
Americans that resulted in many mass revolutionary 
movements in the continent to confront and defeat US 
imperialist domination.
