The International Committee for the Freedom of the Cuban 5 invites all of you who have been part of the struggle to free the Five to join us for this celebration.

Among other things, we will be honoring all of those who were with us in this long struggle for justice but did not make it to the end. We also want to share this time with all the individuals and organizations who helped us make the events in D.C. a success.
