For Nadine Gordimer

 

Homage of The Five to South African Nobel Prizewinner

 

 

The Five, in Granma, Havana, 15 July 2014

 

With the Cubans she fought against the hateful South African Apartheid,
supporting the victims, when the complicity of the powers of the time leaned
toward the perpetrators. 

 

She knew being next to Cuba when the augurs were betting on our defeat and
expecting the triumph of infamy. 

 

She stood in the line and called the fight for freedom of the Five,
challenging the cruel empire in times of revenge. 

 

She accompanied us and was always ready to put her name on the growing list
of those who claim to end the ordeal imposed on us and our family by a legal
system tainted by the shame.

 

It was fair. It was human. It was great. So it was worthy of the respect and
admiration of the Five, our loved ones and the Cuban people. 

 

Nadine Gordimer has died. The peace of the righteous lives forever. Undying
and tireless.

Junto a los cubanos luchó contra el odioso Apartheid sudafricano, poniéndose
al lado de las víctimas cuando la complicidad de las potencias de la época
se inclinaba hacia los victimarios. Supo estar al lado de Cuba cuando los
augures apostaban por nuestro abatimiento y  las apuestas se inclinaban por
el triunfo de la infamia. Se puso en la fila de los buenos cuando la
vergüenza los convocó a luchar por la libertad de los Cinco, retando al
imperio cruel en tiempos de exultada venganza. Nos acompañó y estuvo siempre
presta a poner su nombre en la lista creciente de los que reclaman fin al
calvario impuesto a noso­tros y a nuestros familiares por un sistema legal
viciado por el oprobio.

 

Fue justa. Fue humana. Fue grande. Por eso fue digna del respeto y la
admiración de los Cinco, de nuestros seres queridos y del pueblo cubano.



Nadine Gordimer ha muerto. Que en la paz de los justos viva para siempre.
Inmortal e incansable.
