City Council Member of the New York District 42 joined the struggle for the Cuban Five |

Activist and people's politician City Council Member Charles Barron, of the District 42 NYC, has joined his voice with the hundreds that have sent High Commissioner of Human Rights a letter asking Ms. Pillay to request the US government grant Visas for the families of the Cuban 5. "Throughout their incarceration the Cuban 5 have been victims of multiple human rights violations. One of the most unjust and inhuman of these violations has been the systematic denial of visitation from their relatives; a basic right of all prisoners." |

Howard Zinn, a Historian for the People |
|
|
|
It is with great sadness that we heard the news about the passing of Howard Zinn. He died of a hearth attack at the age of 87 while he was working on a speaking tour in Santa Monica California. This internationally known historian supported international struggles for justice including the struggle for the freedom of the Cuban Five. In April 2007, during a conference on the Cuban Five at Northeastern University in Boston, Howard Zinn opened his talk addressing the audience mostly of students and said "Tonight you are so lucky, you will learn about something that most people in the United States are not aware of and that is the case of the Cuban Five". |
