I have started writing about the Pastors for Peace Cuban Caravan, but you are going to need to do your homework. See, there is a lot of stuff I am going to be mentioning and if you do not read up on this you are going to be lost!
First is the Pastors for Peace. This is a group who does just what you think a group with a name like that would do
http://www.ifconews.org/ This will take you right to the heart of the matter. There is just all kinds of stuff on here that you need to keep up with this stuff and I do not have time nor space to feed it to you. I first became involved with this group through the auspices of Max and Maureen Hale. They are a married couple in Colordo Springs who are very active in the Pastors for Peace group. I love these people to death as well as the Reverend Faye Gallegos who brought them to Pueblo to work on this project. These are some of the hardest working people you will ever meet in the United Church of Christ.
Then the next place you need to go is
http://www.freethefive.org/ If you do nothing else on this site, you need to play and listen to the video from CBS news that presents the Cuban 5 story. Than make up your own mind. While I do not want to incite a riot here, I would like you to be familiar with a practice that may be not quite what it appeared to be.
This bus is covered with art that has been painted by Antonio Guerreo. Antonio is currently in lock up in Florence, Colorado. He has been there for 12 years. He is one of the Cuban Five that you will read about above. See you in a bit with the human side of the Cuban Caravan.
