Free the Cuban 5

[Resistance received the following call to action from our comrades in the Young Communists´ Union, Cuba. Please help distribute this call and contact your local Resistance branch to help out in building solidarity with the Cuban 5] Friends and comrades all over the world, On behalf of the brave and noble people of which we are part, Cuban youth is calling on youth and student movements, associations and the young population of the world in general to join the struggle for truth and justice, as they have so many times before in the long history of humanity. We call on you to participate in a new World Congress, from 10th January to 30th April, to break the silence that surrounds the case of the five Cuban patriots unjustly imprisoned in the United States. The campaign for the release of these five heroes represents a battle for truth against terrorism. The aim is to break the wall of silence about the case imposed by Washington on public opinion, to denounce the manipulation and the fallacy of an impartial and unfair trial and to demand the immediate release of the five Cubans. Our comrades have now served eight years of unjust incarceration; they are victims of imperialism's total irrationality and utter contempt for human dignity. The imperialists arbitrarily ignore the pronounvements of international organisations and set up all kinds of legal obstacles to prevent a just solution to the case. Only the real mobilisation of public opinion will bring to bear the pressure needed to obtain the justice our people are fighting for. Humanity is at a crossroads in its history and it is we the younger generation who are responsible for this victory for its future. This congress will be for five men who epitomize the highest values of decency, altruism, bravery and solidarity. It will be a Congress for Truth. We invite everyone to orund off the Congress by attending an International Youth Solidarity Meeting on 29th and 30th in Havana, Cuba. Our youth and trhe people will be immensely proud to welcome you, to reflect together on the successes of the Congress and to plan the steps we can take in the future. Ever on to victory!
