[Aztlan] Research in Cuba

[Dito Morales]

The NY Times article on El Chorro de Maita also mentioned this:

"Since 2004, the Bush administration has greatly tightened restrictions on 
educational travel to Cuba.... Last spring, Mr. Valcárcel Rojas was denied a 
visa to attend the annual Society for American Archaeology conference in 
Puerto Rico."

PLEASE take a look at the work of ECDET:
The Emergency Coalition to Defend Educational Travel
http://www.ecdet.org/

If you are at all interested in advancing the academic freedom to study 
pre-Columbian art in Cuba, you may want to lend your support to ECDET.

I hope this was not inappropriate for AZTLAN.
