That was what Medea Benjamin did, and now the U.S. government is investigating and intimidating her. Last March, Medea Benjamin, co-founder of Code Pink (@codepinkaction), traveled to Cuba as part of the Humanitarian Convoy Nuestra America, amid a devastating economic crisis brought about by U.S. sanctions and an oil blockade designed to choke the island. She came to bring food, medicines, especially to the children’s hospitals, where the maximum pressure sanctions are killing babies. Medea explains to Liz Oliva Fernández what the investigations really are, how she was saved by Cuban doctors, why Hasan Piker's (@Hasan) reach made him a target and why this won’t stop the solidarity towards Cuba. “It's a form of intimidation, to try to get people who travel to Cuba to be afraid that the U.S. government's going to go after them,” she said. What Medea describes is part of a much larger crisis. Read the latest article, “Sanctions Kill.
