The celebration of the 35th Anniversary of the return of Ernestina-Morrissey to Massachusetts will include recognition of five individuals who were part of the early efforts of repatriation and who continued to support the ship through the years.    Hundreds of people rallied to support Ernestina in the 1970's. The effort to return Ernestina to the United States began in earnest after the Cape Verdeans won independence in 1975.  READ MORE ........
