Next 12th September will be 15 years since the imprisonment of the Cuban 5.
The
Free the Cuban Five Irish Campaign will mark the anniversary with a
vigil outside the GPO, from 6:00 p.m. At a crucial time in the struggle
for their freedom and return home, we are asking to show your support
by attending this vigil, which in Ireland will also be a tribute to the
late Bernie Dwyer, who worked tirelessly for their cause.
Rene
González, the first of the five to complete his term and who is back in
Cuba thanks to the huge pressure from international public opinion, has
launched the initiative of asking people attending the events worldwide
to wear a yellow ribbon, and some very prominent Cuban musicians have
just recorded this version of the song “Tie the yellow ribbon in the old
oak tree”, which will also be used in events marking the occasion both
in Cuba and internationally.
Spare an hour to the cause of these men and join us at the vigil on the 12th.
