Cuban 5 and its importance in the struggle for human rights and
justice.The newly formed Free the Cuban 5 Committee - Victoria
and the Victoria Central American Support Committee is inviting
you to an evening with internationally acclaimed speakers where
we will be discussing more about the life and struggle of these
5 heroes, new important developments in their case and what we
can do to help in the worldwide campaign for their freedom.
Gerardo Hernández, Antonio Guerrero, Ramón Labañino, Fernando
González and René González, known internationally as the Cuban 5
heroes, have been unjustly imprisoned in U.S. Jails for over 11
years. Their so-called crime was investigating U.S. sponsored
right wing, anti-Cuban terrorist organizations in Miami that are
responsible for the deaths of over 3,400 innocent Cuban people.
