STAND WITH THE VICTIMS OF USA FOREIGN POLICY:

USA BLOCKADE CAUSES CUBA PROTEST, INTERVENTION IN HAITI AND MILITARY FUNDING IN COLOMBIA SPARKS UNREST

PROTEST: Rain or Shine, Saturday, July 17, 2021, 11:00am ET, Major Rudolf Anderson, Jr. Memorial (airplane),

Cleveland Park, McDaniel Avenue/150 Cleveland Park Drive, Greenville, SC

The Greenville Emergency Solidarity Committee for Cuba, Haiti, and Colombia stands with the people of the Global South (the Caribbean and Latin American countries) under the horrific pressure of USA imperialism. We see the hidden hand of U.S. manipulation and denounce it, https://portside.org/2021-07-14/hidden-hand-us-blockade-sparks-cuba-protests .

In the midst of the monstrous COVID-19 Pandemic, global economic fragility, and unprecedented world hunger the United States persists in imposing 243 genocidal sanctions on the Cuban people, funding the militarization of law enforcement and paramilitary gangs against protestors in both Haiti and Colombia, and seeding “regime change” in Venezuela and Nicaragua--- ALL NON-WHITE COUNTRIES, https://blackallianceforpeace.com/bapstatements/haitiswhiterulers , https://nepajac.org/haitistatement071321.htm .

USA foreign policy reflects the alarming rise in hate crimes and police brutality over the past year towards Black and Brown communities in the USA; the Derrick Chauvin conviction notwithstanding. The Biden-Harris Administration's opportunistic scapegoating, sanctioning, blockading and embracing Trump-Pence policies against countries of color, demonizing and labeling them terrorists, enemies, threats, and adversaries of the United States, continues the widespread national white supremacist sentiment exposed by the Trump administration, https://www.answercoalition.org/20210714_let_cuba_live_webinar .

The mainstream media’s failure to disclose the United States' imperial, undemocratic history and economic warfare against Black and Brown countries generally and Cuba, Venezuela, and Haiti specifically, keeps U.S. People ignorant and pliable. Further, the U.S. has reduced Colombia to a cat's paw in it's war against progressive governments in the Global South and racist drug war in the United States, https://uspeacecouncil.org , /statement-of-the-world-peace-council-on-the-recent-protest-events-in-cuba/ .

We call upon people of good will to STAND WITH THE VICTIMIZED SURVIVORS OF USA FOREIGN POLICY, join us, Rain or Shine, Saturday, July 17th, 11:00am ET, at the Major Rudolf Anderson, Jr. Memorial (airplane), Cleveland Park, McDaniel Avenue/150 Cleveland Park Drive, Greenville, SC. Rudolf Anderson, Jr.'s plane was shot down in 1962 during an early U.S. assault on the Cuban people's human right of self-determination, self-defense, and free association and trade, the so-called “Cuban Missile Crisis,” https://uspeacecouncil.org/statement-of-the-world-peace-council-on-the-recent-protest-events-in-cuba/ . #DefendTheRightOfSelfDetermination #AbolishSoCom
