MARC FRANK

Cuba Today! The Cuba We Don't Hear About in the U.S.

Marc Frank is an American journalist who has lived in Cuba for the past 30 years. He works as a freelance writer for Reuters, the Financial Times, and other publications. He is the author of one of the best books on contemporary Cuba, Cuban Revelations: Behind the Scenes in Havana. Marc was one of the lecturers during the Praxis educational tours to Cuba in 2015 and 2016, and he is a wealth of information on all things Cuba. This is an opportunity to learn about the incredible resilience of the Cuban people, the Cuban medical system, Cuban art and education, their handling of COVID, and much more. This remarkable island has been shrouded in mystery for most Americans, even though it's only 90 miles from our border! In the U.S., we hear very little about Cuba -- and, what we do hear is mostly anti-Cuban propaganda. Marc Frank is an expert on Cuba from the perspective of an American who has become immersed in the Cuban culture. Don't miss this unique program!

MARY McDEVITT, M.D.

How We Can Have Medicare for All in California -- In Record Time!

Mary McDevitt, M.D., will give us the details of Assembly Bill 1400, which was introduced in the CA State Assembly in February 2021. This is a phenomenon bill that would protect all Californians at European levels of medical care. We can help make this a reality by lobbying our representatives and informing our family, friends, and colleagues about this legislation. It is a game changer and includes dental, chiropractic, and many forms of healthcare. Dr. McDevitt will provide all the information we need to help California become the first state in the U.S. to adopt Medicare for All!
