Participate

In Cuba, Carlos Saladrigas spoke publicly yesterday in a Habana Catholic Church local, of the possibility of participating with Cuban dissidents, before the dictatorship, in real changes for Cuba.

In Miami, members of the “Free” press and exiles committed to the empire’s policies ignored this important historical moment and/or criticized it. But this event is one foot in the door of a possible involvement of dissenting Cubans and exiles in real changes bringing freedom of thought and action to all Cubans without further bloodshed and war. As is, for example, introducing in Cuba, private capital, separated from government, earned insuring goods and rights, before the law, supervised by government; as the private insurance system/industry works in United States.

The biggest obstacle is that dictatorship and exiles blame each other of being murderous criminals. The reality is that throughout the Cuban insurrectional process from colonial times to the present, those who participate in the insurrection become murderers or martyrs, because in this process insurgents are trained to kill the enemy and destroy their properties.

Today’s historic moment when the United State’s executive branch after the 2008, implosion is representing North America’s Civil Rights evolution, and Raul’s dictatorship wants to evolve, gives us the opportunity to participate non-violently in Cuba’s revolutionary process.

This will not be the last meeting Saladrigas will hold in Cuba and each new meeting could have more and more exiles and dissidents with the courage to participate and forward ideas that will bring freedom of thought and action to all Cubans.
