SUMMARY:September Cuba Car Caravan
DESCRIPTION:September Cuba Car Caravan\n\nEnd the U.S. Blockade of Cuba! (Poner fin al bloqueo estadounidense de Cuba)\nTake Cuba off the U.S. State Sponsors of Terrorism! (Sacar a Cuba de la lista de Estados Patrocinadores del Terrorismo de EE.UU)\n\n\nSunday\, September 24\, 2023\, Gather at 1:00 pm\nGriggs-Midway Building in St. Paul\, MN1821 University Ave W\, St Paul\, MN 55104(gather in the parking lot)\nCar caravan details:\n1:00 pm: Line up and add signs and flags to cars at Griggs-Midway. Signs and car flags will be available or bring your own. Caravan sponsors will make brief remarks.1:30 pm (sharp): Caravan begins – Drive on University Avenue to the State Capital and back then return to Griggs-Midway.\n\nDuring the caravan join us on ZOOM! See QR code.\n2:30: Brief closing rally at Griggs-Midway Building parking lot.Contact 612-437-0222 for more information or if you’re joining late.We join the nationwide monthly caravans first organized by Miami-based Puentes de Amor (Bridges of Love) to show our love  for Cuba. \nThis month we’re focusing on the continuation of Cuba on the list of nations that the U.S. designates as “terrorist” and the recent FBI questioning when people visit Cuba. \n \nCome to hear speakers that have experienced FBI questioning and/or FBI raids. We need to stand up and speak out against any form of U.S. government repression against the people of Cuba and their supporters.\nMore than 10\,000 people and 100 progressive advocacy groups have signed an open letter urging President Joe Biden to end the Trump administration’s terrorism designation for Cuba and to reinstate Obama-era policy for the island.We are still organizing to end the US’ 60+year Blockade on Cuba:The international outcry against the U.S. intentional starvation blockade of Cuba is growing. These actions powerfully refute the claims  by anti-Cuba Senators Marco Rubio\, Robert Menendez and Ted Cruz.Now in their third year\, the public bike and car caravans that started in Miami\, and led by Cuban-Americans\, have broken up that myth.\n \n—————————–\nÚnase a SCOTA\, el Comité Cuba de Minnesota y otros en nuestra caravana mensual contra el bloqueo estadounidense a Cuba. Encuéntrenos en el edificio Griggs-Midway (St. Paul) (estacionamiento inferior) o MÍRELO EN VIVO en la página de Facebook.Este mes nos enfocamos en la continuación de Cuba en la lista de naciones que los EE.UU. designa como “terroristas”.\nMás de 10\,000 personas y 100 grupos progresistas han firmado una carta abierta urgiendo al presidente Joe Biden a revertir la designación de terrorismo de la administración Trump para Cuba y restablecer la política de la era Obama para la isla.\nEl clamor internacional contra el bloqueo con intención de causar hambre intencionado de Estados Unidos contra Cuba es cada vez mayor. Estas acciones refutan poderosamente la afirmación estadounidense de que la campaña contra Cuba de Marco Rubio\, Bob Menéndez y Ted Cruz nos representa.\nAhora en su tercer año\, las caravanas públicas de bicicletas y automóviles que comenzaron en Miami y son lideradas por cubano-americanos han roto ese mito.\nInitiated by: Solidarity Committee on the Americas & the MN Cuba Committee\nFacebook event and watch live if one can’t make it to the caravan: September Cuba Car Caravan (Griggs-Midway Building in St. Paul)!

SUMMARY:The Bombing of Cuban Flight 455 and Why it Matters Today
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, October 5th @ 7 pm @ Blegen Hall\, Rm 155 \n269 19th Ave. S\, West Bank\, U of MN\, Mpls\n\nOn October 6\, 1976\, Cubana Flight 455 took off from Barbados en route to Jamaica. Two explosive devices placed on the airplane detonated\, and the plane was ripped apart and plummeted into the ocean below. Innocent men\, women\, and children lost their lives\, including the entire Cuban Olympic fencing team. A new informative and well-researched documentary\, Cubana 455\, details the ties between the CIA and Cuban exile terrorists. In this extraordinary documentary\, it is clear that the Cuban terrorists have no remorse and consider civilian deaths as only collateral damage in their campaign against Cuba. Join us to learn about this tragic event and to demand that the US State Department remove Cuba from the SSOT (State Sponsors of Terrorism) The presence of Cuba on this list is particularly outrageous because it has been a victim of terrorist acts over the past 60 years\, not a perpetrator of them.  Organized by Minnesota Cuba Committee.\nFacebook.

SUMMARY:Protest: tell McCullom to vote No on Aid to Israel
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, October 25\, 2023 @ 4 p.m.\nGather at intersection of Lasalle and University\, St. Paul\, MN (one block from Rep. McCollum’s office) \nMcCollum\, who represents St. Paul in the U.S. House\, is a co-sponsor of H.Res.771\, titled “Standing with Israel as it defends itself against the barbaric war launched by Hamas and other terrorists.” \nLikewise\, her phony statement on a ceasefire places blame only on Palestinians and doesn’t even call for Israel to immediately stop its genocidal attacks on Gaza. \nIn the past\, McCollum claimed to be an ally of Palestine and sponsored legislation that would have cut U.S. aid to Israel. It’s time to push her back in that direction. Biden wants $14 billions more for Israel as part of his $106 billion proposal to fund wars across the world – join us to tell Betty McCollum to vote NO! \nInitiated by MN Anti-War Committee. Endorsements to follow.

SUMMARY:Build the Future — Break the U.S. Blockade on Cuba!
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, November 1\, 2023 at 5:00 pm \nLake Street-Marshall Ave Bridge \nJoin SCOTA on the bridge during the WAMM vigil in support of the United Nations’ vote to End the U.S. Blockade on Cuba!\n\nCuba will bring a resolution to the United Nations to end the cruel (60-year+) U.S. blockade on their country during the United Nations annual vote.\nSCOTA will be participating in a 24-hour global picket in support of the resolution.\nCuba’s resolution calls for: “Necessity of ending economic\, commercial and financial embargo imposed by the United States of America against Cuba.”\nIn 2022\, this resolution was passed overwhelmingly by 185 countries for the 30th consecutive vote at the UN General Assembly\, while the U.S. and one other country voted to continue the blockade\, and a couple of countries abstained.\nWhile the U.S. government continually votes “No” to ending the cruel blockade\, the people of the United States enter the family of nations from around the world to demand “End the Blockade on Cuba” and “Let Cuba Live.”\nThe people of the U.S. shows their support by passing many resolutions (at least 102). These resolutions represent 55 million people.\nWant to join the 24-hr virtual picket?\nSign up here: https://tinyurl.com/24hr4Cuba\nInitiated by the Solidarity Committee on the Americas (FYI: solidaritycommitteeofamericas@gmail.com)\n\n#UNVote4Cuba\n#OffTheListt\n#MejorSinBloqueo
