Abstract
The first Cuban to take up arms in the name of the equality of all human beings and the right of all peoples to dignity, Carlos Manuel de Céspedes launched the Cry for emancipation in Yara on October 10, 1868 against Spanish colonialism. Under conditions of extreme adversity, he devoted all his efforts to uniting Cuban forces for human progress, confronting both the cruelty of war and the vices and weaknesses of the human condition. Abandoned to his fate by the ingratitude of his people, he bequeathed to the Cuban people, through the greatest of sacrifices, the ideal of freedom and the essential need to unite all the people of goodwill in order to gain definitive independence.
