Under Fidel Castro’s leadership, the push for the release of the Cuban Five, who were unjustly imprisoned in the United States for years, transcended borders.

Hundreds of thousands of people of goodwill, across the political spectrum, joined the cause and placed their trust in a prophecy uttered by Fidel that became a compass and guiding principle in the battle to bring them home: “I’ll tell you one thing. They will return!”

When the world witnesses so many scandalous and violent aggressions, all led by the United States and its allies, we can see today the validity of Fidel Castro's light, said Canadian writer Arnold August.
 
Fidel is with us in every corner of the planet, when we think, write or participate in activism, said to Prensa Latina via email the also journalist and lecturer based in Montreal on occasion of the 92nd birthday of the Cuban revolutionary leader on August 13.
