We can learn vital and urgent lessons from Cuba’s advances in public health, education, LGBTQ+ rights, economic justice, and environmental sustainability—all of which are under intensifying attack here in the United States. Join us for a uniquely direct and educational exchange with highly informed Cuban Embassy officials visiting us from Washington D.C.

We are facing a critical moment in US/Cuba relations with the Trump administration ramping up its attacks on Cuba—a serious escalation in a long history of hostile policies designed to harm the Cuban economy and damage Cuba’s reputation as a leader in global healthcare.

The Trump administration has put Cuba back on the fraudulent State Sponsors of Terrorism (SSOT) list as it tramples on Cuban sovereignty by designating the Guantánamo Bay military base as a detention center for deported migrants. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has even threatened to revoke US visas for government leaders whose nations hire life saving Cuban physicians and nurses from Cuba’s famed medical brigades. Solidarity is needed more than ever.
