The mural resulted in the work of activists from the Coordinating Committee for Solidarity with Cuba, supported by Colectivo 26 de Julio and the Communist Youths.
The 43-meter-long-and-five-meter high wall painting reflects events such as the attack on the Moncada Garrison, Cuba’s resistance against the US economic, commercial, and financial siege, the brotherhood between Cuba and Chile, and the 50th anniversary of the coup d’Etat against the Government of Salvador Allende.
Pedro Bronzic, a member of the Coordinating Committee, told Prensa Latina that this work of art is a tribute to the 70th anniversary of the Moncada´s assault, an action headed by Fidel Castro, which led to the emancipation of Cuba and other Latin American peoples.
The mural also denounces the aggressions suffered by the Cuban Revolution for more than 60 years and the tightening of the genocidal blockade against that people, even in the Covid-19 pandemic, the activist condemned.
Bronzic expressed the decision of the Chilean Movement of Solidarity with Cuba, to support Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador’s initiative, to create a front against this siege.
