January 1, 2022: Happy New Year from the Seattle/Cuba Friendship Committee

In 2021, the Seattle/Cuba Friendship Committee had a robust year of activism in solidarity with, and support for, the Cuban Revolution and the people of Cuba. We didn't end the blockade but we did get the word out and promote positive relations between our nations and peoples. Please join us in 2022 for more of the same!
