Jornada cultura 2019Defending what is ours no matter how small the details are has an extraordinary value and this is shown by the activities of the day of culture that continue today in the territory of Cali and will conclude this Sunday.

Identified with this premise is Adriana Peña García, director of the house of municipal culture, located in the town of Buenaventura: "This is a peasant territory and that is why we gather and dance the danzón to the beat of the music of the organ of the Brothers Ajo , we participated in a workshop where demonstrations were made of the dance of the corrido, and of the caringa rhythm that are authentic from here, "

"The nights have been dressed up and there was an inaugural show behind that in addition to presenting professional talent added to our movement of amateur artists with dance, theater, rural poetry and music that identifies us," he said.

On the morning of this Saturday at the public library Onelio Jorge Cardoso, Professor Idelmar Cordero presented to the young audience the book “Hasta Siempre Fidel”, an essential text because it is a reflection of the historical memory of the Revolution: "Start with the date and time of the death of our Commander in Chief, then the words of Raúl announcing the painful news to the people, and then photos of the journey of Fidel's ashes.

"Let me tell you that all the photographs have an incalculable value because in addition to those made by professionals, they include fans, children, and some Facebook profiles. The text is a masterpiece for the symbolism, the leading role of the people, the reflection of moments that have marked us forever by the side of the Commander in Chief.

"It also contains a CD with another collection of photographs. I think that every folk interested in knowing more about Fidel's departure for eternity should come to this library, browse the book and enter the compact disc that has more information about this event, "said the cultural promoter.
