Description
Unarmed student protestors as they arrive at the monument to José Martí in Havana's Central Park shortly after Anastas Mikoyan deposited his floral offering to Martí and during their confrontations with police and other non-uniformed members of government security forces. Frames 1-8, 12-16, show them as they approach the monument, carrying picket signs that read "Cuba remember Hungary," "Fidel Saved Cuba, Mikoyan Wants to Sink It." A uniformed member of Cuba's revolutionary militia pulls his pistol and a member of the National Revolutionary Police holds his pistol in sight as the unarmed protestors near the statue.
