Voices Of Cuba

Granted rare access into Cuba, Dr. Julian Nava, a former U.S. ambassador to Mexico who witnessed the early revolution, returns to Cuba after nearly 40 years. This video examines Cuban history, social structure, patriotism, and will to survive against the historical background of Cuban-American antagonism. What this eminent Latin American scholar found will be a surprise. From the rock-and-roll clubs of the Havana youth, to the offices of high-ranking communist officials, from the five star hotels, to the decrepit slums, VOICES OF CUBA takes you to the Cuban people. The people themselves share their thoughts and feelings about their revolution, the effects of the U.S. embargo on their daily lives, and their hopes for their country in the 21st century. Castro continues to preach "socialism or death," but VOICES OF CUBA shows Cuba's new economy built on tourism, foreign investment and a free market economy with the U.S. dollar an official currency, as well as American culture celebrated openly. This program describes the terrible impact of the US embargo, which bans all trade including the sale of food, medical equipment and medicine. Castro's Cuba has survived the nine successive American administrations. VOICES OF CUBA poses serious questions for all of us to ponder.
