The collection contains clippings from the 1960s related to homosexuality in Cuba and its place in the Cuban Revolution from publications such as Mella and Juventud Rebelde; political and cultural pamphlets; theater and art exposition programs; 60 posters from the Consejo Nacional de Cultura, ICAIC, and the Comisión de Orientación Revolucionaria; political posters from OSPAAAL; postage stamps from 1963 to 1978; and LP records.
The Agrupación Abdala collection contains materials and posters documenting the Cuban student activist group Agrupación Abdala (also known as Agrupación Estudiantil Abdala). The group was founded on January 28, 1968, as a student organization committed to fight communism and to gain the release of Cuban political prisoners.
The posters commemorate special events held by Abdala, as well as the Congresses they sponsored. The information found on the verso of each poster was provided by Edgar Garrastaza and Jaime Guiú, members of Abdala. Other materials include correspondence, conference proceedings, scripts and outlines for radio and television communications, pamphlets, and organizational statutes and by-laws.
