Venceremos Brigade

In 1969, young people formed the Venceremos ("We Shall Overcome") Brigade, as a means of showing solidarity with the Cuban Revolution working side by side with Cuban workers and challenging U.S. policies towards Cuba. The first Brigades participated in sugar harvests and subsequent Brigades have done agricultural and construction work in many parts of the island. Over the last 35 years, the VB has given over 8,000 people from the U.S. the opportunity to experience Cuba while volunteering, participating in educational activities, and traveling the island.
