More on The Trujillo EraMás sobre La era de Trujillo

SummaryResumen

Fifty-seven Dominican Republic nationals and exiles, men, women and children representing six anti-Trujillo revolutionary groups in New York, arrived by bus in Washington and formed a picket line urging the Organization of American States to apply economic sanctions against Dictator Rafael Trujillo, carrying signs including American Mothers Should Condemn Trujillo's Tyranny and Our Country Asks for Sanctions. The pickets, led by the Free Syndicate of Dominican Workers in Exile under its president Fernando Jose Muni, demonstrated two blocks from the Pan American Union Building while inside the OAS Council met to consider the sanctions recommended by the foreign ministers of the American states at their meeting in Costa Rica last August.

Cincuenta y siete ciudadanos y exiliados de la República Dominicana, hombres, mujeres y niños que representaban a seis grupos revolucionarios antitrujillistas de Nueva York, llegaron en autobús a Washington y formaron una línea de protesta pidiendo a la Organización de los Estados Americanos que aplicara sanciones económicas contra el dictador Rafael Trujillo, con carteles que incluían Las madres americanas deben condenar la tiranía de Trujillo y Nuestro país pide sanciones. Los manifestantes, encabezados por el Sindicato Libre de Trabajadores Dominicanos en el Exilio bajo su presidente Fernando Jose Muni, se manifestaron a dos cuadras del edificio de la Unión Panamericana mientras dentro el Consejo de la OEA se reunía para considerar las sanciones recomendadas por los ministros de Relaciones Exteriores de los estados americanos en su reunión en Costa Rica el pasado agosto.
