Cuba | Celebrate May Day in Cuba: Labor, Culture, and Community Organizing from the Ground Up!
Trip Availability: OPEN
Tour Sponsor:Estelle Schneider
We are confident you will come away with a deep understanding of the complexities and wonders within Cuba as we experience together the beauty of the island’s people and cultural heritage sites. With the current Trump Administration policies that are reversing normalization and strengthening the blockade, it is surely an urgent time to travel, engage with Cubans, and express our solidarity. You will have the opportunity to participate with thousands of Cubans as they celebrate May Day, and to meet and share experiences with Cuban trade unionists. We will learn about the history of the Cuban Revolution, the legacy of Cmd. Fidel Castro, and understand the organization of Cuban society through its mass organizations. Additionally we will learn about the fruits of the Cuban Revolution: Health Care, Education, Sports and the Arts.
