![Andreas Gomez-U.S. Policy in Cuba](images/fileicons/nodigital.png)
Journalist Andreas Gomez gives a lecture on the Cuban revolution and U.S. Policy in Cuba. Gomez opposes U.S. Policy in Cuba and speaks about the imprisonment of 35,000 Cuban prisoners arrested and held at Guantanamo while trying to go the United States. Through his personal experiences in Cuba he recalls the state of the country from 1993 to 1995, and the progress that has been made by the revolution in that time period.
Gomez's lecture straddles traditional political bounds. He describes life in Cuba at this time as against the grain of a socialist society, of Cuban beliefs and of the national consensus. He does however discuss how these factors are necessary in order to rehabilitate Cuba. He explains that the U.S. plans not to infiltrate but use other means that will have long term negative effects, and that the U.S. retaliation has no relevance to what is actually going on in Cuba.
The overall perspective of the lecture is one that strongly opposes the U.S. destruction of the Cuban Revolution, but also that Cuba is in a state that is not optimal but to support the Cubans so they can get what they need done to change their country in a positive way.
