Listen, Yankee! Why Cuba Matters with Tom Hayden


Friday, May 29,  7:00 pm, First Church of Jamaica Plain, UU • 6 Eliot St. • Jamaica Plain
Sunday, May 31, 11:00 am, Community Church of Boston • 565 Boylston St • Copley Square • Boston
Tom Hayden - one of America's best-known voices of political and social activism - will give two book talks.
 
Based on unprecedented access to both Cuban and American officials, "Listen, Yankee!: Why Cuba Matters" offers fresh insight into one of history’s most enigmatic relationships between nations. His was one of the few voices that predicted the release of the Cuban 5 and the move to reestablish diplomatic relations.
 
Tom writes both as an observer of Cuba and as a US revolutionary student leader telling his own story, someone whose efforts to mobilize political change in the US mirrored the radical transformation simultaneously going on in Cuba.
 
A book signing and reception will follow the discussion.
 
Friday event sponsored by Jamaica Plain Forum and co-sponsored by the International Committee for a Just Policy towards Cuba.
