Excerpt:
A top official of Cuba’s communist party — who has pledged eternal allegiance to her “commander” Fidel Castro — will be a featured speaker at the New York City Bar Association later this month — galling those who fled the brutal dictatorship.
Yamila Gonzalez Ferrer — the vice president National Union of Cuban Jurists and member of the Cuban National Assembly will discuss “the newest developments in Cuba’s public health law, which provides the legal framework for fulfilling health care as a right, not a privilege,” the bar gushed in a LinkedIN notice last week.
“Cuba offers world-class health care to all Cubans, free-of-charge, emphasizing prevention, primary care and the active participation of the community. Cuba is also an innovator in the development of life-saving drugs,” added a description of the March 21 event at the association’s 44th street headquarters in midtown which also promised a Q&A with Ferrer.
Ferrer, 54, is enjoined by Cuba’s “Code of Ethics of Jurists” to “be faithful to the ethical principles emanating from the history of the Cuban nation of the Communist Party of Cuba” and to be faithful to the teachings of Fidel and Raul Castro.
“Always with you my commander,” she wrote on X on Fidel Castro’s birthday last year.
In Fidel Castro “we have the privilege of finding indigenous and universal political and legal thought, which guides our commitment to the social project of the Cuban Revolution,” she added in another post.

If you wonder how Cuba’s corrupt, brutally oppressive, and murderous totalitarian dictatorship can remain in power for 65 years, it’s because supposedly free and democratic organizations continually give the regime oxygen.
IMO NYCB just showing their true colors. After all they are using lawfare to attack DJT so am not surprised they are having a fellow communist give them a speech.
