Juan Perfetti, Comunicas Founder's Speech to The People of Venezuela from Boston

First of all, I would like to ask you all to do a minute of silence to honor all those who have lost their lives violently for all those who have violated their human rights and all those unjustly imprisoned in Venezuela. I want to thank all the people who made Comunicas possible my wife Cristina, my children, Gabriel and Valentina Enrique Gonzalez, Marisela Valero, Andrea Garrido Daniel Martínez, Erica Mattison, Claire Mulvena Tom Dodge, my neighbors of Cumbres de Curumo to all our volunteers and interns of Comunicas to our partners Ciscuve, Planeta Vital and New View Media, and all the attendees today "My only objectives are and will always be to promote the happiness, liberty and prosperity of my own country excessively oppressed," that's a quote of our hero Fracisco de Miranda who not only fought the Spanish Empire to free Venezuela But also fought here against the British to free the United States Francisco de Miranda is one of our heroes and was one of the most global Venezuelans in history I want to send a message to the people of Venezuela especially to all those inside Venezuela, who are the vast majority. To all those who resist, who work hard, who are honest, who are innovators who are building a better country from their homes, from their communities, together with their neighbors. I want to all of you in Venezuela: thank you. Thank you for resisting, thank you for having hope thank you for inspiring all of us, those inside and those outside the country. Thank you for believing that you can, despite all the difficulties corruption, the information war, the bad government, and the interests of the powerful that are against the interests of the people. Comunicas will stick with you to help you raise your voice from the neighborhoods to help you exercise your freedom of speech and thought. To help you create bridges and points in common among you, that in the end regardless of your political ideas, your socioeconomic position, your race, or the faith you profess, you are all Venezuelans and the vast majority wants a better country for you and your children. Always remember that we - the Venezuelans- are a beautiful people, diverse the product of a deep ethnic mix, we are one of the most educated people in the world, we have a very rich culture and a wonderful history. No tyranny will succeed in breaking our spirit of liberty!
