DESCRIPTION:21st Friendshipment Caravan to Cuba\n\nSupport the Caravan as it passes 
 through San Francisco to deliver humanitarian aid and challenge the US 
 blockade of Cuba.\n\n** Presentation by Richard Becker (International 
 ANSWER)\n** and Video "People to People" about the Caravan\n\nThe 
 caravanistas will also be present at the 11 a.m. service, Rev. Schuyler 
 Rhodes, Pastor\n\nA year has passed since Obama took office, but the 
 fundamental mechanisms of the illegal, immoral, and internationally 
 condemned US economic blockade against Cuba remain in full force, with just 
 a few small exceptions. Sales of US products to Cuba are still severely 
 restricted, and sales of Cuban products to the US are absolutely forbidden. 
 Banks and businesses in other countries are still harassed for doing 
 business with Cuba. The travel ban on US citizens visiting Cuba remains. 
 And Cuba is still, outrageously, on the list of nations that supposedly 
 sponsor terrorism.\n\nNOW is the time to completely end the blockade, the 
 travel ban, and all the measures aimed at starving the Cuban people into 
 submission and overthrowing their government. Our US/Cuba Friendshipment 
 Caravan is one of our ways of demonstrating that we will no longer tolerate 
 this cruel blockade! We will travel in school buses, trucks and cars along 
 13 different routes, visiting 130 US and Canadian cities. At every stop we 
 will educate people about the blockade while collecting construction 
 supplies and tools, medical supplies and equipment, educational and 
 cultural supplies, to be donated to our sisters and brothers in Cuba.\n\nWe 
 will travel to Cuba via Mexico, without asking for or accepting a US 
 government license, as a disciplined collective challenge to the blockade 
 and travel ban, and as ambassadors for a `people-to-people' foreign policy 
 based in mutual respect. When we return to the US, we will proudly declare 
 our travel to Cuba and our opposition to the immoral blockade.\n
