The impetus of Carlos Manuel de Céspedes and his determination on that October 10, 1868, when he assured that “Cuba can no longer belong to a power,” still shake.
When commemorating the 156th anniversary of the beginning of our only Revolution, in a solemn way, in the patrimonial cemetery of Santa Ifigenia, a representation of the people of Santiago de Cuba gathered for the traditional tribute to the Father of the Homeland and the National Hero.
Floral offerings on behalf of Army General Raúl Castro Ruz, leader of the Cuban Revolution; Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez, First Secretary of the Central Committee of the Party and President of the Republic; Esteban Lazo Hernández, head of the Parliament; and the people of Cuba accompanied the tribute at the José Martí Mausoleum.
Another offering, on behalf of the Cuban people, was placed at the tomb of Carlos Manuel de Céspedes, by students of the Camilo Cienfuegos Military School and cadets of the José Maceo Inter-arms School of the Hero City.
Likewise, from the Sacred Altar of the Homeland, the former La Demajagua sugar mill -currently a National Monument and Museum Park-, people from several generations of inhabitants from Grandma honored the founding date of the Cuban nation, which took place in that emblematic site.
There, where Céspedes, along with other patriots and their recently freed slaves, began the road to emancipation, they recalled the epic passages written that historic morning, in the presence of the Commander of the Revolution Ramiro ValdMenéndez, deputy prime minister, and the highest authorities of the Party and the Government in the province.
According to CNC TV, on the occasion, Javier Vega Leyva, president of the branch of the Union of Historians of Cuba in the territory, praised the altruism of Céspedes and the men who, together with him, marked the beginning of the road to freedom, while he called on the new generations to be imbued with the history that began to be woven in La Demajagua, with the aim of applying it in their daily actions.
The national call for the Cuban Culture Day was also presented, which will have as its most relevant event the celebration of the 30th edition of the Cuban Festivity, from October 17 to 20.
