An event celebrating the resistance movements and revolutionary struggles of the Latin Caribbean was held Feb. 4 in upper Manhattan. Entitled, "Jose Marti, Ramon Emeterio Betances and Juan Pablo Duarte: a legacy of patriotism and revolution," it was dedicated to the freedom of the Cuban 5 and the Puerto Rican political prisoners, all held in U.S. jails.
Speakers pictured above are Rafael Rodriguez, lawyer for Cuban political prisoner Rene Gonzalez; Jorge Peña, first secretary, Cuban Mission to the United Nations; Frank Velgara, ProLibertad Freedom Campaign; Rhadames Morales, Fuerzas de la Revolución Dominicana/Iglésia San Romero de las Américas; and Luis Miranda, Casa de las Americas.
