All posts by Casa de las Americas

Casa de las Américas (Casa) is a New York-based organization of Cuban emigrants who support the revolution. Beginning in 1955, the July 26 Committee was established in NY for the purpose of supporting the armed struggle that was taking place in Cuba against the dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista. Shortly after the triumph of the revolution in 1959, the Committee was renamed Casa Cuba, which later became Casa de las Américas.

Defend Cuba & Venezuela Rally Jan 26, 2018

Video

Rally against attempted US coup in Venezuela and ongoing efforts by US to end socialism in Cuba, held across the street from the Cuban Mission to the UN, hosted by the International Action Center and Workers World Party and led by Ike Nahem. Lots of repetitive chanting until 9:14 when several speakers are each given opportunity to express their views against US imperialism in other countries as well as Venezuela and Cuba. camera, edit by Joe Friendly
