Reportback from the First Legal Brigade to Cuba – Law For the People Brigade

DESCRIPTION

Sponsored by NNOC, NLG International Committee Americas Taskforce, Black Alliance for Peace.

Panel speakers will represent a brigade of 25 lawyers, law students, legal workers, and non-legal workers who traveled to Cuba in August 2024. The brigade is visiting Cuba with the purpose of creating teach-in materials and writings on the Cuban legal system, people power within that system, how the blockade is viewed under international law, and how these topics are connected to local struggles. During the panel we will present our teach-in materials and share insights about the process of creating these documents and forming a brigade.
