Cuban children and youth pay tribute to Fidel Castro in Nicaragua

Managua, Nov 25 (Prensa Latina) Eight years after his death, children and young people from the Cuban Embassy in Nicaragua are paying tribute to the historic leader of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro, with an exhibition of drawings on paper and canvas.

The exhibition, including the participation of Cuban teenagers living in this Central American country, is on display at the Consulate of the Caribbean nation and is the result of the “Fidel en Nuestros Corazones” (Fidel In Our Hearts) contest, an initiative launched at the diplomatic headquarters.

The works, created by the contestants, highlight Fidel’s face, his grades as a Commander-in-Chief, the Latin Americanist vision, the flag, the countryside’s landscapes, and the Sierra Maestra mountain range, places from where the Cuban leader fought and conquered the triumph in January 1959.

Camila Martinez did not participate in the painting, she preferred to use a pen and a blank sheet of paper to express in a letter how a young woman of her time observes and recalls Fidel.

Before members of the diplomatic headquarters and the Association of Cuban Residents in Nicaragua, Martinez recalled on Sunday that Fidel Castro’s ideas and words make a difference and follow the context of current situations.
