Building Global African Solidarity with Cuba; Because When Africa Called, Cuba Answered

This session will explore the history of the Cuban Revolution and Cuba’s long-standing role in supporting African liberation struggles and Global South development. We will examine why Cuba has been treated as a threat to Western hegemony, the ongoing impact of the U.S. blockade, and Cuba’s model of people-centered systems in healthcare, education, and participatory governance. The discussion will highlight Cuba’s internationalist commitments— including the deployment of over 600,000 doctors across Africa and the Global South—and reflect on what it means for African people and movements today to stand in solidarity with Cuba.

Join Pan-African Community Action (PACA) for the next Assata Shakur Study Group, where together, we will consider the broader connections between anti-imperialism, internationalism, and the collective struggle for self-determination.

Light snacks and refreshments will be provided!
