Just 90 miles from Ron DeSantis’s Florida, socialist Cuba is making huge advances in LGBTQ+ rights with its new Families Code.
How did Cuba achieve the ‘most advanced policy in the world? Why isn’t the U.S. media reporting it? Why does Biden maintain Trump’s punishing blockade measures and keep Cuba on the state sponsors of terrorism list?

Hear from LGBTQ+ activists from across the U.S. who went to Cuba to see for themselves. Learn how queer rights are being prioritized from the grassroots to the National Assembly. Why U.S. queers should work to end the U.S. blockade of Cuba, and how you can join next year’s delegation.

Hear panelists:
*Lizz Toledo Women in Struggle-Mujeres en Lucha • Atlanta
*Serena Sojic-Bourne Real Name Campaign & FRSO • New Orleans
*Jordan David Lavender Guard • Los Angeles
*Deirdre Deans Women in Struggle • Atlanta
*Gregory Esteven Socialist Unity Party • New Orleans
*Kiana Fok Peoples Power Assembly & Friends of Latin America • Baltimore
*Melinda Butterfield Women in Struggle • New York
