Since last January people from all over the world have been contacting the White House on the 5th of each month to demand President Obama to immediately free the Cuban 5 political prisoners held in US prisons.
Also, on that same day a number of committees have established having regular events and demonstrations to keep the struggle for their freedom loud and alive.
This month holds particular significance because on October 7th, René González, one of the Cuban 5 Patriots, will be released from the US prison in Marianna Florida after serving out his 13 year sentence. The confinement of Rene in a federal prison will end but due to a capricious decision of the US government he will not be able to return home to his family. South Florida district Judge Lenard rejected a petition submitted by Rene Gonzalez that would have allowed him to return to his wife, his daughters and his parents. In an unprecedented ruling he has been ordered to remain in the United States on probation for three years.
On the 5th of October, contact President Barack Obama demanding not just the immediate return of René Gonzalez to his homeland but to free all of the Cuban 5!
