Today, Phi Iota Alpha celebrates the birth of one of our Pillars: Don Jose Martí! Born in Havana, Cuba on January 28, 1853, Martí was a renowned poet, essayist, journalist, and revolutionary. Imprisoned at a young age for his anti-colonial views, he experienced firsthand the brutality of Spanish rule. Exiled to Spain, Martí continued his fight for Cuban independence through his powerful writings. He traveled extensively throughout Latin America, raising awareness of the Cuban cause and fostering Pan-American solidarity. Martí’s vision of a free and independent Cuba, free from both Spanish and American imperialism, continues to resonate today. His ideas of unity, justice, and self-determination remain a powerful inspiration for movements for social and political change across the globe.

This season is all about coming together with loved ones, sharing laughs, and indulging in the flavors of our culture—tamales steaming in the kitchen, pollo relleno on the table, pernil that melts in your mouth, and abuela’s flan waiting to steal the show. It’s a time to reflect on our traditions, celebrate our roots, and create beautiful memories.

¡Feliz Navidad y un próspero Año Nuevo!
