Solidarity with Cuba: A Panel Discussion
In connection with the Armed by Design/El Diseño a las Armas exhibition, this panel features members of the Venceremos Brigade, the Center for Cuban Studies, Pastors for Peace, and the National Lawyers Guild together to discuss a long history of solidarity work with Cuba.
In 1969, a coalition of young people formed the Venceremos (“We Shall Overcome”) Brigade, as a means of showing solidarity with the Cuban Revolution by working side by side with Cuban workers and challenging U.S. policies towards Cuba. Over the last four and half decades, the V.B. has given over 9,000 people from the U.S. the opportunity for a life-changing experience through work, educational activities, and travel. As the oldest Cuba solidarity organization in the world, the Venceremos Brigade believes that we have much to learn from Cuba and the best way to do that is to travel there and see for ourselves.
