Hundreds gather in Jacksonville to protest current conditions in Cuba

Hundreds of people across Jacksonville gathered to fight for a free Cuba on Sunday.
During the protest, which started at Regency Mall and then moved to the downtown area, people said Cubans are suffering and it’s time for everyone to pay attention.
Protestor Jose Moralez said it’s a revolution for the country.
“The lack of medicine, the lack of human rights,” Moralez said. “They finally decided to protest and we’re here to support them to make their struggle visible. As a Cuban-American, we feel its our responsibility to make sure the world knows they need the right to be able to claim that freedom in the streets like they are doing right now. The people are finally doing what they’ve never done before in 60 years.”
