PROTEST 10 YEARS OF INJUSTICE! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
FREE THE FIVE!
10 am: Morning Rally, Malcolm X Park
12 noon: March to the White House
2:30 pm: Indoor Rally, Location TBA
The Five are five Cuban men who are in U.S. prisons,
serving four life sentences and 75 years collectively, after being
arrested in September 1998 and wrongly convicted in Miami in 2001.
Gerardo, Ramón, Antonio, Fernando, and René were falsely accused by
the U.S. government of espionage conspiracy and related charges. But
the Five’s only “crime” was to peacefully report on CIA-backed
Miami-based terrorist groups in order to prevent attacks on Cuba. They
never possessed classified information or weapons, nor harmed anyone.: 587285

On 9 separate occasions, theU.S. government has denied entry visas to Adriana Perez (top) and
Olga Salanueva (bottom) to visit their imprisoned husbands. It has been almost 10 years since they last embraced. Their visitation rights must be respected!
