Cuba and Zimbabwe have set in motion a plan to set up a local state-of-the-art pharmaceutical plant, in a development expected to improve local drug supplies in the long term.
Cuban Ambassador to Zimbabwe Carmelina Rodriguez said: “For 40 years we have developed a historical relationship based on friendship, mutual respect and collaboration. Cuba and Zimbabwe are working to further deepen and broaden the co-operation in the development of the pharmaceutical industry here through the establishment of a plant to produce medical drugs in the country.”
Ambassador Rodriguez said the embargo was the biggest impediment to the country’s development.
“Despite the obsession of the government of the USA, Cuba has moved forward.
“We Cubans have been creative and have firmly resisted the onslaught of the worst economic siege, which has tried to suffocate the nation.”
On this day, 17 March 1942, Yugoslav communist and anti-fascist militant Nada Dimić was executed in the Stara Gradiška concentration camp. Born of Serbian parents, she was a member of the first Yugoslav partisan unit in Croatia, and participated in sabotage raids on railroads. She was arrested by pro-Nazi Ustasha agents in 1941 and brutally tortured, but admitted nothing and soon escaped. On 3 December 1941, Dimić was confronted by Ustasha police while trying to help people escape fascists into partisan areas. When asked to identify herself, Dimić grabbed a revolver from her handbag and shot one of the officers. She was then arrested, imprisoned, tortured again and executed by firing squad. In 1951 she was declared a national hero of Yugoslavia.

There is a white supremacist group starting to get attention at my uni and I want to shut down as fast as possible. Any ideas on how to get other students with me and how to make sure the direction take punitive action?
AnonymousHmm. Without a lot more information it’s sort-of hard to give solid advice here.
One idea might be to reach out to student groups that represent the kinds of people targeted by white supremacists to see how they feel on campus these days and to see if they want to take action.
Another idea might be to research university policy on discrimination, human rights, etc. and pressure uni officials to enforce their own policies should this white supremacist group be in violation (and we’d guess that the very existence of a white supremacist group would violate a lot of those policies!).
Maybe it’s time to start an anti-fascist student club? Here are some thoughts on that.
Your uni isn’t the first one to encounter this situation, so research what has happened on other campuses. A couple of years ago the Campus Antifascist Network was helping students oppose fascism at school - maybe see if you can find some active chapters that can advise/support you?
