End of U.S Blockade Against Cuba is Demanded in Streets of Miami

5. Great to see this article! Demonstrations like this wouldn't have happened 20 years ago,

during the days of the Cuban American National Foundation President, Jorge Mas Canosa, and his original wave of right-wing "exiles."

For years, they kept a tight lid on Cubans who supported dialogue with Cuba, and didn't spare the violence, when they deemed it necessary.

Very impressive seeing these comments from Miami citizens:

There were no provocations by right-wing and anti-Cuban groups against our cars, and we felt the positive support of many people during the tour, Diaz told Prensa Latina.

We even heard shouts of Long Live Cuba! and Long Live the Revolution! as we travel down busy avenues in Southwest and near the University of Miami, he added.

As they have done on other occasions, the participants in the two-hour caravan also expressed their rejection of the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States on Cuba more than 55 years ago.

It takes a long time to see progress transforming hearts and minds, but it does happen.

Thanks for the fresh look at Miami, Mike, and congrats to those who have refused to give up on sanity gaining the upper hand over politics all this time!
