Brief research on Hebrew tributes in Cuba

By Arnaldo Alfredo Delgado Fernández

The Hebrews' admiration for Mart was extraordinary to the point of planting a forest with his name on the slopes of Judea as a tribute to his centenary. The printing of a leaflet in Hebrew with a brief biography of Mart , given to every child in Israel's public schools by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 1953. The placing of floral offerings on busts and statues of Mart in Havana's Central Park and the Parque de la Libertad, today's Plaza de Marte in Santiago de Cuba, were some of the tributes paid by this community on the island and abroad. There was no longer any doubt about the Hebrew admiration for Jos Mart , but the constant search for information showed that it was not only for him, but for all national elements, patriotic symbols and Cuban historical personalities such as Antonio Maceo Grajales to whom Abraham Marcus Matter n referred, vice-president of the Hebrew Cultural Association of Cuba, as "the great mulatto", and was the subject, like Mart and the Cuban flag, of the inspired poetic pen of Eliezer Aronowsky, a Polish Jewish poet who emigrated to Cuba, as well as other Hebrew poets and painters.
