See the Baltimore Premiere of "The Trial" narrated by Oscar winning actor and activist Danny Glover. This dynamic film exposes the enormous injustice meted out by the U.S. government to the Cuban 5 who remain falsely incarcerated behind U.S. prison walls
ear Special Guest speaker: Teresa Gutierrez, New York City Committee to Free the Cuban 5
Wednesday, Dec. 5th, 7pm-9pm
At the Yabba Pot, 2431 St. Paul St
(near 25th & St. Paul Sts.)
The film showing will commemorate the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Che' Guevara
The Cuban Five are Antonio Guerrero, René González, Fernando González, Ramón Labañino & Gerardo Hernández. The five were convicted in 2001 for trying to stop terrorist attacks against Cuba, conducted by anti-Cuba groups based in Miami. In the last 40 years more than 3,000 Cubans have died as a result of these terrorists’ attacks. In early 2005 the UN Commission on Human Rights ruled that the detention of the five political prisoners in the U.S. violates the International Convention on Civilian and Political Rights.
Despite growing support in the U.S. and around the world, the five remain imprisoned with long sentences in far-flung U.S. maximum security penitentiaries.The Cuban people have the right to self-determination and sovereignty. The Cuban Five—at great personal risk—were trying to protect the lives of Cubans and other people. We call for a new trial and freedom for the heroic Cuban 5!
