SAMAAP 2019 Newsletter

Newsletter of the Society of Friends of the West Indian Museum of Panama
February 1 2019 to January 31, 2020


Message from the editors In this edition, we reactivate our historical memory of the strike carried out by workers of the Panama Canal in 1920, organized by William Preston Stoute and Samuel Inniss. In this centenary of that struggle, we should always remember that the benefits we enjoy today are the results of the struggles of these types of leaders of the past who paved the way.
