So what did y'all do this weekend?
So what would cause me, the quintessential broke college student, to go all the way to Washington to march in support of five men I've never met? It's certainly not for the fun of it, since the trip bankrupted me (literally) for the next two weeks...
Well, it's as Che Guevara once said: "If you tremble with indignation at every injustice, then you are a comrade of mine." Considering what a serious miscarriage of justice led to the Five's convictions, and what blatant hypocrisy our government is demonstrating by refusing to do anything about it, I don't see how I (or anyone else) can possibly remain silent.
If you'd like more information on their case, visit the National Committee to Free the Cuban Five's website. Then get active! El pueblo unido jams ser vencido! (The people united will never be defeated!)
