There's no shortage of Cuban restaurants in Florida. But one stands out for its commitment to the history and culture of Cubans of African descent.At Soul de Cuba Cafe in Tampa's Seminole Heights neighborhood, the decor includes dozens of framed family pictures—the ancestors of the restaurant's founder and CEO, Jesús Puerto. On one wall, there's a mural-size black-and-white photo from 1944 depicting dark-skinned people socializing and dancing—the women in dresses, the men in suit jackets and Panama hats. They were members of Martí-Maceo Society, a social club for Tampa's Black Cubans, formed because segregation kept them from joining a similar group full of their lighter-skinned counterparts.Jesús wants guests to leave with knowledge—and with full bellies, of course. The menu includes traditional Cuban favorites like roast pork and ropa vieja, as well as modernized options, such as mojo salmon and veggie empanadas. He also sells a line of take-home sauces.Jesús chatted with Dalia about what makes Afro-Cubans unique, the importance of knowing your history and Soul de Cuba Cafe's must-try foods and cocktails. He also makes a case for why Tampa, not Miami, deserves bragging rights as the birthplace of the Cuban sandwich.Thanks to Jim Webb for the episode suggestion and photos of Soul de Cuba Cafe.

Who needs Spanish when you've got a saxophone? A music-lover proves that disability access is just another improvisation in Havana's jazz scene. Best viewed as a video https://youtu.be/Qz9Rm89LHD0 Summary Danny, Health Hats, chronicles his week-long trip to Cuba in January for a music-cultural exchange. Using a wheelchair and playing baritone saxophone, he traveled with a group of 11 from the States, organized by Dan Fox and Arlington MA's Morningside Studios. The group participated in a "Band Camp" hosted by the Havana Music School, receiving daily individual lessons, rehearsing in ensembles, and performing Cuban music at a restaurant. Despite Danny's initial anxieties about traveling with his disability and instrument, he found Cubans accommodating and helpful. The podcast features an interview with Claudia Fumero, manager of the Havana Music School, who discusses: The school's focus on teaching Cuban music to foreign visitors How the business began and evolved from connecting students with teachers in their homes to having a dedicated facility Her dream of expanding with more instruments and creating a small café where people can play music The episode is interspersed with musical performances by the ensembles, including renditions of "Sofrito" and "Afro Blue" by Mongo Santamaria. The group also attended the Havana Jazz Festival each night during their stay. Click here to view the printable newsletter with images. More readable than a transcript, which can also be found below.

My nighttime voices bombarded me. How can you go to Cuba as a musician? You're not good enough. Your wheelchair won't make it over their crumbling roads and sidewalks.  Your horn is too big and heavy with everything else. You can't do too many stairs. You don't speak Spanish. You won't be safe. I hate those deflating voices. I should be excited about this chance of a lifetime. I completely trust Dan Fox, our guide and arranger. My disabilities do not define me. Helpful people are everywhere. I'm going with my partner of fifty years. We love music and culture. Who cares about politics? What the heck? We went. Welcome to the story of our adventures.

Daniel A. Rodriguez's history of a newly independent Cuba shaking off the U.S. occupation, The Right to Live in Health: Medical Politics in Postindependence Havana (University of North Carolina Press, 2020), focuses on the intersection of public health and politics in Havana.  While medical policies were often used to further American colonial power, in Cuba, Rodriguez argues, they evolved into important expressions of anticolonial nationalism as Cuba struggled to establish itself as a modern state.  A younger generation of Cuban medical reformers, including physicians, patients, and officials, imagined disease as a kind of remnant of colonial rule. These new medical nationalists, as Rodriguez calls them, looked to medical science to guide Cuba toward what they envisioned as a healthy and independent future. Rodriguez describes how medicine and new public health projects infused republican Cuba's statecraft, powerfully shaping the lives of Havana's residents. He underscores how various stakeholders, including women and people of color, demanded robust government investment in quality medical care for all Cubans, a central national value that continues today.  On a broader level, Rodriguez proposes that Latin America, at least as much as the United States and Europe, was an engine for the articulation of citizens' rights, including the right to health care, in the twentieth century.

On today's KITM, David Waldman delivers us to the weekend and parks us right under the cloud of another mass shooting. Well, you can't say this shooter was the quiet type who always kept to themselves that you'd never guess… Senator Chris Van Hollen went to El Salvador and met Kilmar Abrego Garcia, yet neither one of their heads have appeared on pikes behind Donald K. Trump in a press briefing, so I guess things are better than I thought, and less what Sebastian Gorka wishes they were. A judge has also kept Trump from ordering hundreds of thousands of Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans to leave the country, but like the heads on pikes, we don't know what this weekend will bring. Trump did promise to end the war in Ukraine easily within 24 hours. Of course, if it takes longer, or becomes difficult, that offer is void. Measles and E. coli spread, but not as fast as Russian chatbot disinformation.

Truth Talk Live aired a special episode spotlighting Transworld Radio's powerful mission in Cuba. The show explored the island's ongoing political and economic struggles—and how these hardships are opening hearts to the message of Christianity. Since 1964, Transworld Radio has been reaching Cubans with the gospel through its 450,000-watt broadcast station in Bonaire. With limited resources and a fragile power grid, AM radio remains a lifeline for many, making it a crucial tool for sharing faith and hope. Stu invited listeners to support this important mission through prayer and donations, helping spread the message of God's love across Cuba. https://twr.org/

Marc Cox welcomes tax attorney and former IRS counsel Rosemary Becchi to break down the immigration legal battle unfolding under the Biden and Trump administrations. Becchi exposes how an Obama-appointed judge is blocking Trump's attempt to end a special immigration parole program—CHNV—covering Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans flown into the U.S. under Biden's executive order. Rosemary clarifies that the ruling doesn't protect all illegals—just this narrow group. Marc highlights the chaos of case-by-case reviews, the expected Supreme Court fight, and California's staggering $2B budget plea to fund Medicaid for illegal immigrants. It's another example of Biden's immigration disaster now falling into Trump's lap.

Show Notes Episode 489: We Built This City on Flake and Blow This week Host Dave Bledsoe puts on a Hawwian shirt, drops a Jimmy Buffett record on the turntable and mixes up a Bahama Mama before anyone figured out that he was not part of the wedding and threw him out of the venue. (This happens a lot.) On the show this week we head south to a city of sun, sand and billions of dollars worth of cocaine, we talk about the Miami Drug Wars! Along the way we discover that a television news man was the most trusted man in Dave's family. Then we dive right into the history of what would become Miami Florida, and the first snow birds who moved there after they retired. From there we get into how the CIA helped kick start the cocaine trade in America. (This isn't just something “funny” Dave said, this happened.) We learn how the Cubans were all murdered by the Colombians (Scarface was a documentary really) and took over the Miami trade for themselves. We meet the scariest woman in Miami (and Bogota, and, well everywhere) before we get down to the business of finding a way to take all the drug money and put it to work.  (Real Estate baby!) Our Sponsor this week is Fast Eddie's Investment Services, investing involves risk and it doesn't get much riskier than Fast Eddie.  We open with Miami news coverage of the drug wars and close with the T Sisters explaining big city commercial real estate.

Tonight at 9PM ET, we will be chatting with Christian Mlotschek, a home meadmaker in Ontario, Canada. Christian is a newish meadmaker, and has jumped in with both feet to make meads. Christian's brewing adventures started in 2022 when he joined the Society for Creative Anachronism. He's  brewed about 40 batches of mead, beer and cider including a few historical meads from various manuscripts. This past year he started competing in both beer and mead. His "Mixed up Mel" melomel won gold at the Ales Open in April '24, and he received a Gold for his Semi-Sweet Wildflower Trad. at Brew Slam in December '24. He did my first commercial collaboration this past November with Counterpoint Brewing in Kitchener allowing him to learning experience on larger equipment, bringing his Battered Ram Buckwheat Braggot to the masses. It was well received and mostly sold out in a short period. His current projects are: a period adjacent tradional mead recipe where he conscripted 8 other brewers in the SCA to help him fill a mead barrel that he purchased from Rosewood Estates Winery in Ontario. shared mead with and taught some local Cubans on his recent trip how to make it with the promise he gets to try their attempts when he goes back next. bench trials of various varietals to do a sampling of source honey and fermented mead, including his local wildflower, fireweed, coriander, meadowfoam, blueberry blossom and Ontario Buckwheat. The future is hopefully contuing to build his library, more competitions and experimental archeology making recipes from various sources and creating period style Brewing equipment to showcase at demos.

Keating outed Russian offensive weapons directed towards the United States. Keating never gave up his source. The source's name was also deleted from secretly recorded Excom conversations. Excom was the Executive Committee that Kennedy organized to help him problem solve during the crisis. Sadly Robert Kennedy comes across as arrogant during the 13 days of meetings during the crisis. At one point, the stressed RFK concerned about his family wanted to go in & end the situation with Cuba by force. RFK was performing in a diplomatic manner through backdoor connections to Russia's Nikita Khrushchev Both McNamara & RFK were super loyal to JFK yet both flip flopped during this incredibly tense time. At other times, under pressure, the two men became hawkish. Initially it was agreed upon that the quarantine was the effective way to get in contact with Khrushchev. The longer the Cuban quarantine continued, the more likely it was that military intervention would be needed. Kennedy kept delaying matters, trying to fend the US war hawks off. Even if the Russians were to attack, the Generals were ordered not to fire back without JFK's permission. What do major corporations want? Is the government enabling corporations & their covert operations? Eisenhower gave the green light for the Lumbama assassination. Why did Eisenhower hate Kennedy so much? Eisenhower had plotted The Bay of Pigs Operation, which was a way to entrap Kennedy. The Bay of Pigs would fail unless there was no intervention of US military to help it along. Eisenhower were trying to figure out how to get rid of Castro & his government before Kennedy was elected. Eisenhower in has last year was suffering from heart troubles. Was he being manipulated before his death? Americans were dropping death charges to force the Russian subs to surface. When Russian submarines lost contact with Russia, one Russian Commander refused to launch any missiles. Gary reflects on the the history of CIA's William Harvey & how Kennedy exiled Harvey to Rome. Len notes that William Harvey is a person of interest in the JFK assassination. The Cubans & Russians were ordered to fire the missiles if the US attacked. Adlai Stevenson said from day one that he thought there was a diplomatic solution, blockade or quarantine. Stevenson told the Chief Admiral that he wasn't allowed to do anything without JFKs permission. Kennedy made great efforts to stall the military from a full on invasion of Cuba. Eisenhower is the one who really created the Bay of Pigs operation, not JFK. US intelligence reported that there were 10,000 troops in Cuba during the crisis, but there was 40,000! CIA Director John A. McCone was the 2nd person who went around discussing hidden missiles in Cuba. Kennedy first learned about the situation on October 15th. Why so late if reports were coming in during Sept.? When referring to his family, Kennedy had said "I'd rather have them Red, than dead."

Author & JFK Researcher Paul Bleau The PEPE Letters - article on the Kennedys and King website. The JFK Assassination Chokeholds : Books - Amazon.ca The Man Who Knew Too Much: Dick Russell, Dick: Amazon.ca: Books Paul came across the Pepe letters sent from Cuba in 1962 to Mexico on the Mary Ferrell site. The Pepe letters were created to implicate Castro & the Cubans in the pending assassination of JFK. When reading the letters from 1962, Paul recognized patterns with the Pedro Charles letters sent in 63. Postmarked shortly after the assassination, the letters were sent from Havana & dismissed by Hoover as a hoax. How many people in November 1963 would have known about Oswald’s trip to Mexico City? Only the CIA or FBI in Mexico City would have known the information relayed in the letters? Paul realized there is a sort of template for the style of suspicious letter writing, linked to the FPCC. Information in the files indicate there were multiple plots to assassinate JFK, following a playbook created before 63. There were FPFC links between Florida, Chicago, Dallas & rumoured Los Angeles assassination plots. Ret. Army Capt. Richard Case Nagell had FPFC flyers in his vehicle at the time of his arrest. When the ARRB was being set up, the ONI & Jesus Angleton destroyed significant assassination files. Why did the Secret Service destroy all of Kennedy's travel files (including trips to Chicago & Florida)? The FBI & Secret Service were worried about the Pepe letters, doing more work on these letters than the others. If you find out who created the Pepe letters, will you discover that the same people are behind the assassination? Previous researchers have also worked on the Pepe letters. Paul has expanded & enhanced this research with his own. ZR-RIFLE was led by rouge high level CIA agents who were involved in the failed Bay of Pigs operation. The sender of the letters from Havana was directly connected to the Fair Play For Cuba committee. There was a central coordination of efforts regarding the assassination of JFK. Were plans for JFK's assassination created after the Cuban Missile Crisis or before? Isn't it suspicious that Lee Harvey Oswald was ALSO connected to the Fair Play For Cuba committee? The FBI concluded that the Pepe letters were written by David Menendez, FPCC member in Tampa, Fl. Menedez moved from Tampa back to Cuba where he works closely to Castro. FBI reports state they were comparing Menedez writings to his correspondence with V.T. Lee. Menendez & his wife were both heavily involved in the Fair Play For Cuba committee in Tampa. The ZR-RIFLE is an executive action assassination program perfected by William Harvey. Phony paper trails, provisions for using patsies & blaming the opponents are methods used in ZR-RIFLE. Paul encourages people to look into the ZR-RIFLE program. Oswald in Mexico City was a false flag event, to set the narrative that he was conspiring with Russian & Cuban agents. Hoover confirmed that Oswald had been impersonated in Mexico.  

On Wednesday January 15, in a final snub ahead of Donald Trump's return to the White House, US President Joe Biden announced the surprise removal of Cuba from the US list of state sponsors of terrorism. The decision came after a series of changes in the relationship between the US and Cuba in recent years. With the return of Trump to the White House, Cubans fear new diplomatic tensions between Washington and Havana, and a negative impact on tourism and the island's economy. FRANCE 24's Ed Augustin, Matthieu Comin and Laurence Cuvillier report.

In 1961, at the height of the Cold War, the fight against communism was in full swing. The CIA was deep into the politics of Central America, having already assisted some dictator-ish guys staying in power. The U.S. felt like it couldn't lose when it decided to "intervene". America was friendly with the current regime of Cuba, and it probably had nothing to do with all of the American corporations controlling most of Cuban industry. When Fidel Castro came into power as a result of one of the many Cuban revolutions, the U.S. was panicking because we didn't know which way he was leaning, Capitalist or Communist. With Cuba only being 90 miles from Florida, this was a cause for concern (not at all escalated by the Nukes we put in Turkey aimed at Russia). When the U.S. botched the first interactions with Fidel and issued economic sanctions, to be fair he seized a bunch of American corporation property in Cuba, he decided to just get what he needed from Russia, and boy were they excited, a communist friendly country 90 miles from the United States, oh the possibilities. Well because of this Uncle Sam decided Fidel had to go, so you do what any rational government would do. You find a bunch of exiled Cubans, train them as guerrilla fighters, teach them to pilot WW2 era bombers, secure them ships, and supply them with everything they need to invade Cuba and start a revolution to topple Castro. Can't miss plan...right?. Yeah not so much, find out how the JFK and the braintrust at the CIA oversaw one of the most embarrassing failures in recent history. Support the show

How Black and white Cubans navigated issues of race, politics, and identity during the post-Civil War and early Jim Crow eras in South Florida. On July 4, 1876, during the centennial celebration of US independence, the city of Key West was different from other cities. In some of post–Civil War Florida, Black residents were hindered from participating in 4th of July festivities, but Key West's celebration, “led by a Cuban revolutionary mayor working in concert with a city council composed of Afro-Bahamians, Cubans, African Americans, and Anglos,” represented a profound exercise in interracial democracy amid the Radical Reconstruction era. Constructing Cuban America: Race and Identity in Florida's Caribbean South, 1868–1945 (U Texas Press, 2024) examines the first Cuban American communities in South Florida—Key West and Tampa—and how race played a central role in shaping the experiences of white and Black Cubans. Andrew Gomez argues that factors such as the Cuban independence movement and Radical Reconstruction produced interracial communities of Cubans that worked alongside African Americans and Afro-Bahamians in Florida, yielding several successes in interracial democratic representation, even as they continued to wrestle with elements of racial separatism within the Cuban community. But the conclusion of the Cuban War of Independence and early Jim Crow laws led to a fracture in the Cuban-American community. In the process, both Black and white Cubans posited distinct visions of Cuban-American identity. Andrew Gomez is an associate professor of history at the University of Puget Sound.

Lee Harvey Oswald's trip to Mexico is one of the most mysterious aspects of the JFK assassination case, and some say it holds the key to understanding what really happened and who was actually involved. Today's episode Part 10 is the tenth episode in this miniseries  and and concludes what else may have happened that weekend with Oswald and then chronicles  the remaining phone calls that happened on October 1st and October 3rd...which  were detected by the CIA's surveillance system and which notify the Mexico City CIA Station that its a man named Oswald who is seeking a visa to Cuba and to Russia. And a man who had spoken to Russian KGB agent Kostikov who was working at the consulate. Valery Kostikov was the famed KGB agent who was also a member of the 13th Department, a KGB division responsible for sabotage and assassinations. In Part 10, we pick the action back up on Saturday after Oswald completed his visit to the Russian Embassy, made in one last ditch effort to secure a Russian visa.  Oswald befriends a group of students at the nearby University in an attempt to influence the Cuban consulate and gain his Cuban visa. When that doesn't end well, in despair, he buys a ticket home to Dallas.  There were a few other activities that weekend that Oswald purportedly engaged in including some more mundane touristy things like attending a bull fight and some meatier allegations such as the one that he engaged with a group of Cubans and that he also met with Carlos Lechuga. All rumors that have never been verified beyond their original story tell. While the Mexico City Visit is ending for Oswald, the activities of the CIA and its Mexico City Station are just beginning. So stick around and join us in our next episode 248 as we explore what the CIA did next.The evidence in this part of the case is confounding and it may be one of the toughest assignments yet for all of us, including  you, the jury, to sort through it all. Come join us as we review one of the most fascinating story tells regarding the JFK assassination, and as we borrow heavily from so many great researchers including the work of Jefferson Morley who wrote Our Man In Mexico and John Armstrong who wrote Harvey and Lee, two of the most detailed and spellbinding books every written on the JFK assassination. Investigations by others, including John Newman and Peter Dale Scott, and the  HSCA's Lopez Report contribute to the richness of our story tell about  what happened...really...in Mexico City....Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over  the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it,  were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very beginning. This  real-life story is more fascinating than fiction.  No matter whether you are a serious researcher or a casual student, you will enjoy the fact filled narrative and story as  we relive one of the most shocking moments in American History. An event that changed the nation and changed the world forever.

Cuba was once a famous vacation destination for Americans. Although we can now travel to Cuba, most Americans have been deprived of various forms of trading with the Cuban people. Likewise, Cubans have been deprived of trading with Americans and visiting their American relatives. Does anyone think this situation is good for Americans?
