    The name of the exiled Cuban leader who organized a new revolt against Spanish regimen in Cuba was José Martí.

    José Julian Martí Pérez was born in La Habana on January 28th 1853 and passed away in combat on May 19th 1895. Apart from being a revolutionary leader, he was also well known as a writer, philosopher and journalist.

    When he was exiled in Spain after The 10 Years War (Guerra de los 10 años), he published several plays against Spanish politics over Cuba manifesting his independence ideas. After travelling Europe and America he organized from New York, where he lived and dedicated himself to politics and literature, the Cuban Revolutionary Party becoming one of the most important independence leader.

    In the final Independence War (1895-1898) he joined the revolution travelling from The United states to Cuba with a small contingent, but he was defeated in 1895 by Spanish troupes.

    The name of this Cuban leader is José Martí.

    He was born in Havana in 1853 and was the son of two Spanish parents. From a very young age, he manifested a rebellious spirit and opposed to colonialism (Cuba belonged then to the Spanish crown). At sixteen he was accused of treason for writing a pro-independence letter, imprisoned and deported to Spain, where he graduated in Law and Philosophy and Letters. After traveling to Paris and New York, he resided in Mexico and Guatemala a few years before returning to Cuba, but due to his subversive activities he would be arrested and deported again in 1879. This time he settled in New York and, from there, began to write articles and chronicles that made him famous, while organizing in exile the Cuban Revolutionary Party, of which he would be president. In 1894, Martí and his supporters began to prepare an uprising in Cuba that would lead to the War of Independence (1895-1898), whose culmination would be the emancipation of the island. On May 19, 1895, after returning once more to his homeland and beginning the revolutionary struggle, he was shot down by Spanish troops.
