Twelve webinars were organized by the co-ordinating committee for the US-Cuba Normalization conference since its postponement in March, beginning with the virtual offerings on March 21 and 22, 2020, and culminating in the international concert and three-session weekend on November 13-15. [Videos of all events available here.] This page and support effort were designed to help expand access and participation in those programs. Links to videos of those sessions are provided below.

For new users:
1) If you’d like more info ahead of time, check out https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362193-How-Do-I-Join-A-Meeting- — Below the video is an Overview that includes links to download the application and join a test meeting. If this is your first time using Zoom, do not wait until the last minute to get set.
2) A camera and microphone are needed for video participation. They generally come with laptops, smart phones, and tablets and usually need to be added to desktops. If you have not used your video application before, check to confirm you have one and try it out. Help for using and acquiring cameras can be found online.
3) If you cannot get on with the video application for whatever reason, phone access is direct and simpler. To dial in by phone, call any of the following and use the meeting/webinar ID followed by the #. It is generally nine digits; when you enter it on the phone there should be no spaces or dashes:

It helps to spell out your problem in as much detail as possible and to include your phone number and location, too.
