00:00Those who choose silence, we know from our revolutionary struggle, that silence before
00:12pressure means complicity and we, the Cuban people, the Cuban youth, are not accomplices
00:17of this act.
00:18We are not accomplices of terrorism as long as the Zionist state of Israel together with
00:22the government of the United States continue tearing innocents in Palestine, Lebanon,
00:27Syria, Yemen.
00:28Our dreams and our actions must be multiplied in our schools.
00:31We are talking about the genocide that is being committed today.
00:35We are getting closer to the reality of the Palestinian children and teenagers who only
00:39dream of seeing their parents and siblings.
00:41The more we know about the Palestinian reality, the more we are committed and the more we
00:45are driven to continue support.
00:52In this context, the student from Antigua and Barbuda at the Latin American School of
00:57Medicine in Cuba, Joshua McCorshin, addressed the importance of this demonstration in support
01:02of the Palestinian people.
01:04So today we have gathered here to march to represent in commemoration of the first anniversary
01:11of the war against Palestine.
01:14This march all of us gathered here standing in solidarity with Palestine because we understand
01:19that what is occurring should not happen to anyone in the world and we want to say that
01:22how despite them being a country, they have representation all over the world.
01:26We have people here from different parts of the world.
01:29Myself I'm from Antigua and Barbuda in the Caribbean.
