Another Cuban demonstration in Miami against Bush
measures
MIAMI.—More than 550 people
participated in a demonstration last Saturday
against the measures preventing Cuban émigrés in the
United States from visiting their relatives on the
island and helping them economically, outside the
offices of ultra-right congresswoman Iliana Ros,
according to Andrés Gómez, coordinator of the
Antonio Maceo Brigade.
The demonstration, sponsored by
the association of Christian Mothers in Defense of
the Family and supported by the Alliance of Cuban
Workers (ATC), the Martí Alliance, the Antonio Maceo
Brigade and the José Martí Association is the third
in three consecutive Saturdays condemning and
rejecting these cruel measures.
For all the organizers and
participants it is very important both to maintain
this public voice and to increase the numbers of
people participating. It should be recalled that the
majority of this southern Florida community are
against the measures.
The organizers have announced that the next protest
will be Saturday, August 7 at 11:00 a.m. outside the
offices of the mayor and city councilors, with a
letter demanding that the local authorities should
consider in order to pass a resolution against the
measures.
