As the Conga Against Homophobia and Transphobia in Havana stepped off, families, neighbors, and coworkers gathered on sidewalks and leaned out of windows to watch and cheer on the marchers. Some brought signs and banners of support. Parents hoisted children on their shoulders to watch. No hate groups were jeering or protesting from the sidelines – only solidarity and joy.
The day’s most popular chant was “Socialismo sí, homofobia/transfobia, no!” – yes to socialism, no to homophobia and transphobia. Other chants celebrated the Families Code and denounced the U.S. blockade that causes grave harm to Cuba’s queer community and all Cuban people.
The conga is a Cuban percussion instrument played in Afro-Cuban music. The conga has a barrel-like body made of either fiberglass or wood. It has a top made of membrane and held down by a metal rim. The conga is played in sets of 1–4 and is struck by the players fingers and palms.
