CAFE SIMPATICO -- Friday, March 27
Focus on Cuba
Music 7 pm, Program 7:30 pm

Concerned about escalating US repression, we turn our attention to Cuba to share new information and recent photos, from political activists who recently travelled in Cuba.

We'll start with Mike Crawford's slide show of his trip last month, with Friends of Cuba. Next, we'll have first-hand observations of all that Cuba is facing now. As always, there will be discussion and questions to follow.

Everyone is welcome! Refreshments include Fair Trade Nicaraguan coffee. Donations gratefully accepted.
