Are you ready to CubaGO!? Today is the day to make history by making the travel ban history. Call your members of Congress NOW and get all your friends and family members to do the same.
The democratically elected President, Manuel Zelaya, is back in
Honduras! During the past three days, thousands of people have been
gathering in the streets outside the Brazilian Embassy--where Zelaya is
currently staying--to show their support. But the Honduran security
forces have used tear gas and violence to break up this demonstration.
What does this mean for a concerned activist in the United States like you? If you were ever going to act, now is the time!
Senator DeMint's Wall of Dreams: A Border Nightmare
Do you remember Kevin Costner's blind determination in the movie Field of Dreams
to build a baseball field based on the direction of a mysterious voice?
Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC) has heard a similar voicing stating, "If you
build it, they won't come."
Write a Letter to the Editor: Don't Break Colombia's Heart
$800,000 on hearts.
You heard that right. With a massive humanitarian crisis on their hands, the Colombian government is spending $800,000 on an installation of more than forty, 8-13 ft tall heart sculptures in DC and New York this fall. This campaign, called "Colombia Is Passion," was supposedly designed to educate Americans about the "real" Colombia, a fun and beautiful country in which violence and human rights abuses are a thing of the distant past.
At this point, you might be asking, "Why this? Why now?"
CubaGO! is three weeks away . . . and that means it's time to kick our
organizing efforts into high gear. We've created some tools that we
hope will help you create activities for September 30th, the national
call-in day to End the Travel Ban on Cuba. Below is a link to our new
tool that helps create an event, publicize it and share it with others.
Are you going to be part of this action?
