Pastors for Peace zoom event for Upstate New York

June 29, 2022 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm EDT

A few weeks ago Biden announced (but hasn’t yet implemented) some concessions to ease the
blockade – to make travel to Cuba easier and to make getting visas for Cubans to legally enter
the US easier. A door has opened slightly; we need to push it wide open! For 30 years
IFCO/Pastors for Peace has been challenging the US blockade by taking people and humanitarian aid to Cuba on our annual Friendshipment Caravan. We are going again in July with 100 people and 5 tons of urgently needed medicines and medical supplies. But more important than the numbers and the aid is the message to the Cuban people, that they are not alone, that they have allies in the US who are working to end this blockade.  With Guest Speakers:
Gail Walker: IFCO/Pastors For Peace Executive Director
Angie Langdon: IFCO/Pastors For Peace Social Media Coordinator
Event sponsored by:
Rochester Committee on Latin America (ROCLA)
Western New York Peace Center – Latin America Solidarity Committee
There will be time for Q+A and discussion The event is a fundraiser for IFCO/Pastors for Peace
