Video - In the Face of Washington’s Threats, U.S.-Cuba Solidarity Strengthens

[a #video about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]

Duration - 8:01

While Washington doubles down on its economic war on Cuba, one young activist from Minneapolis packed his bag and flew to Havana. Lavish came not despite U.S. aggression, but because of it, to show #solidarity with the Cuban people.

On #internationalWorkersDay, Lavish was joined by Josué, a young Cuban researcher who has been attending May Day marches since he was a child. The two come from different worlds, but found common ground in Havana.

Cuba is living through one of its hardest economic moments in decades. And yet, there are people in the #US who choose to show up anyway, to stand alongside a people they believe deserve dignity, sovereignty and the right to live without the threat of war or foreign intervention.

On #InternationalWorkersDay we must demand radical change to protect the rights of those who work under terrible conditions. Workers Rights are Human Rights.

Trade unions have a long history of solidarity with other global human rights movements. From the strikes in the 80s against apartheid in South Africa to the union-backed campaigns against Israel's genocide of Palestinians in Gaza, their actions consistently demonstrate the bong between trade unionism and social justice.

Solidarity in Action with those taking to the streets today demanding from their governments accountability and protection for workers’ human rights and action to their demands ✊🏾
