Excerpt of a talk by Andres Gomez, National Coordinator of the Antonio Maseo Brigade, a group of Cuban Americans in support of Cuba and opposed to the U.S. embargo. Gomez begins his talk by optimistically noting recent efforts at Caribbean regional cooperation. He then discuses the long course of U.S.- Cuba relations. He decries how some 35,000 Cubans have been held over the past year
at Guantanamo Bay for desiring to immigrate to the U.S. whereas the U.S. had actively encouraged Cuban immigration for the past 35 years. Gomez believes that the Cuban Revolution embodies Cuba at heart and that U.S. imperial efforts to destroy the Revolution have hurt the Cuban people. He notes social
gains in Cuba over the past 32 years compared to the U.S. but notes that the poor economic situation in '92 and '92 with the demise of the U.S.S.R. have been very trying for the Revolution. He believes that Cubans must now build socialism under different terms with the new national and international circumstances. He sees a need for a freer, more participatory Cuban society, but insists that the U.S. likewise faces many problems of its own.
