Free the Cuban 5 Committee - Victoria
Semi-monthly Petition Postcard Campaign to Free the Cuban 5 Heroes
Held in US Jails!

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*

This Mothers Day, May 9th 2010, the Free the Cuban 5 Committee - Victoria set up an information table on the corner of Government and Pandora in downtown Victoria to raise awareness about the case of the Cuban 5 political prisoners held in US jails. We were also asking those passing by on the street to sign the postcard demanding Barack Obama Free the Cuban 5 Now!

3 people participated and we got 45 postcards signed for the Cuban 5 in just under 3 hours. We also handed out dozens of flyers and factsheets about the case of the Cuban 5 for those who wanted to know more. Sunday's tabling was a second good start in downtown Victoria and indeed a good success in raising awareness among the public, both young and old, about the case of our 5 Cuban heroes and generating the much needed support for their freedom among our communities, which is needed very urgently right now.

This was our second time setting up a table for the Cuban 5 in downtown Victoria and the beginning of our Semi-monthly Petition Postcard Campaign to Free the Cuban 5 Heroes Held in US Jails. The free the Cuban 5 Committee - Victoria will be setting up a table for the Cuban 5 again on Sunday May 23rd 2010. The time and location is to be announced but we will update everyone as soon as we have established this information. We encourage all Peace loving people in Victoria to join us on May 23rd in this campaign to free the Cuban 5 heroes!

FREE THE CUBAN 5 NOW!
