Fragmento de Portada

September 2

What has Cuba done that deserves condemnation? What have our people done to have deserved the Declaration of Costa Rica? Our people have done nothing else but to break off its shackles! (APPLAUSE) Our people have done nothing else but to struggle for a better future, without harming any other people or taking away anything from any other people.  Our people have wished for nothing else but to be free.

Speech delivered by Fidel at the great popular rally staged by the Cuban people at the Square of the Republic on September 2, 1960
