(130 Aniversario de la Muerte de José Martí) Era la noche del 26 de abril de 1895. Hacía quince días lo habían nombrado mayor general del Ejército Libertador de Cuba. José Martí firmó la carta que acababa de escribirles «a Carmen Miyares y sus hijos» y procuró conciliar el sueño. No lo sabía, pero seguramente lo presentía: estaba a escasos veintitrés días de caer herido de muerte en la acción de Dos Ríos, no muy lejos de allí en la misma jurisdicción de Guantánamo. En la carta había dicho: «Yo escribo en mi hamaca, a la luz de una vela de cera, sujeta junto a mis rodillas por una púa clavada en tierra.... Sentía anoche piedad en mis manos, cuando ayudaba a curar a los heridos.... Esta jornada valiente de ayer cerró una marcha a pie de trece días continuos, por las montañas agrias o ricas de Baracoa, la marcha de los seis hombres que se echaron sin guía, por la tierra ignorada y la noche, a encararse triunfantes contra España. »Éramos treinta cuando abrazamos a José Maceo. Dejamos atrás orden y cariño. No sentíamos ni en el humor ni en el cuerpo la angustiosa fatiga, los pedregales a la cintura, los ríos o los muslos, el día sin comer, la noche en el capote por el hielo de la lluvia, los pies rotos.... Envío del cielo libre un saludo de orgullo por nuestra patria, tan bella en sus hombres como en su naturaleza.... No soy inútil ni me he hallado desconocido en nuestros montes; pero poco hace en el mundo quien no se siente amado.»1 De veras es admirable que, en esta carta personal, José Martí, apóstol de la independencia cubana, dé a entender que lo que siente en el alma y en el cuerpo no son las privaciones físicas, sino la piedad y el amor. Descarta el hambre, el dolor, el frío y la fatiga, mientras que destaca la piedad que administra con las manos al hacer las veces de enfermero, y el amor que devengan sus acciones en favor de su pueblo. En esto Martí se asemeja a San Pablo, apóstol de los gentiles. En su segunda carta a los corintios, Pablo les recuerda las privaciones que ha sufrido —azotes, cárceles, tumultos, trabajos pesados, desvelos y hambre—, y su servicio piadoso, por amor a Dios, en favor de su pueblo. Y así como Martí, lo que estima Pablo es el afecto que sienten por él quienes de veras lo conocen.2 La mejor forma de rendirles homenaje a estos magnos apóstoles de la historia sagrada y universal es seguir su ejemplo. Desestimemos nosotros también las privaciones físicas que nos toquen, y estimemos más bien el amor de los que de veras nos conocen. Aceptemos a Cristo y el incomparable amor que nos mostró mediante su muerte en la cruz por nosotros, y así nos armaremos de un amor compasivo que nos asegurará el afecto de quienes mejor nos conocen en este mundo y en el más allá. Carlos ReyUn Mensaje a la Concienciawww.conciencia.net 1 José Martí, Cartas de José Martí, «A Carmen Miyares y sus hijos» (Cerca de Guantánamo, 26 de abril de 1895), reproducido en A Propósito de José Martí y su obra (Bogotá: Editorial Norma, 1994), pp. 18-19. 2 2Co 6:3–7:16

In this message from Pastor Chris, we're invited to step off the sidelines and into the mission of God. A mission that is global, urgent, and deeply personal. Drawing from Genesis, Matthew, and Romans, we see how God's redemptive work has always been about reaching every nation, and how Village Church is playing a part both locally and around the world. From church plants in Cuba to hospital births in Uganda, the impact of faithfulness stretches far beyond what we can see. This is not just about buildings or budgets. It's about participating in a movement that God began long before us, and will continue long after. What if the mission of God has been waiting for you to say yes?

Ciertas producciones discográficas nos permiten acercarnos al ambiente musical de los últimos años 20 y principios de los 30. Grabaciones casi centenarias ilustrando la banda sonora de aquel tramo vital de la nación cubana cuando el gobierno del general Gerardo Machado, aquejado por el viejo mal del caudillismo, transitaba a una dictadura repercutiendo en lo social, económico y político, resonando en lo musical, y provocando además un creciente éxodo de artistas y músicos. Muchos de ellos probando suerte en Europa. "Patica y Mondonguito", una guaracha donde su autor: Moisés Simons tocaba el piano junto a la "Lecuona Cuban Boys". Está agrupación, conducida por el pianista, arreglista y compositor Armando Orefiche, con un riquísimo repertorio de sones, guarachas, rumbas, boleros, afros y guajiras, apoyados además por un despliegue escénico sugerente, abrió musicalmente a sus compatriotas un espacio nada despreciable en el París de los años 30. Identifica nuestro podcast una imagen de la olvidada bailarina Alicia Parlá, la cubana que conquistó al público francés con el nombre artístico de Mariana. Otra manera de recordar algo de aquel ambiente criollo trasplantado a la vieja Europa y donde músicos, ya consagrados como los pianistas y compositores Moisés Simons y Eliseo Grenet, hicieron lo suyo. El clásico "Lamento cubano', interpretado por el mismo Eliseo, da paso al olvidado "trío cubano" que hace unos días nos recordaba el colega Gabriel Romero y que, aún en ciernes los espectros del fascismo y la terrible 2da Guerra Mundial, triunfaba en Francia hacia 1936. Lo completaban: Weeno, Bravo y Gody. Ellos, junto a Eliseo Grenet y Mariana, habitaron los valiosos recuerdos del escritor Alejo Carpentier vinculados a la arrolladora presencia de la música cubana en las noches parisinas. Hace muchos años, gracias al testimonio del pianista Robertico Álvarez conocimos de la existencia de este trío que cubrió una exitosa temporada en Francia y cuya trayectoria fue interrumpida por los embates de la guerra. Weeno Rodríguez, la voz prima del trío cayó prisionero en un campo de concentración y por gestiones consulares impulsadas por amigos y familiares logró regresar a Cuba. En 1958 cuando Cuba se apartaba definitivamente del eje democrático, músicos y artistas se vieron obligados a refugiarse en clubes, hoteles y cabarets. Al no resultar seguros los espacios bailables muchas agrupaciones se disolvieron. Fue en esa época donde reapareció Weeno junto a Robertico Álvarez integrando un grupo de pequeño formato que se presentaba en el Hotel "Habana Hilton". Una grabación de Weeno junto a Robertico Álvarez nos permite recordar a este olvidado cantante que vivió durante muchos años en la barriada de Santa Amalia. Buen recuerdo para Lázaro Ross, considerado el "Apwon Mayor de Cuba" de los últimos 60 años. Su presencia en infinidad proyectos y agrupaciones rindiendo culto a lo más genuino de los cantos de la música yoruba, así como una copiosa discografia, han preservado su arte magnífico en la memoria de más de una generación de cubanos. En la memoria Lázaro Ross quien falleció en La Habana el 8 de febrero de 2005, la ciudad donde vio la luz primera el 11 de mayo del 1925. Durante los próximos minutos changüí bien contemporáneo a la manera de Yelsy Heredia, contrabajista de honda raíz guantanamera, afincado en Madrid hace ya algunos años. El álbum "Camino a Maisí" se gestó en la capital española en 2014. Cuando aún dentro de la Isla se enmascaran muchos géneros de la música popular cubana bajo la etiqueta de "salsa", afortunadamente intérpretes y músicos como Yelsy Heredia continúan defendiendo sus raíces. Le puso voz y sentimiento a este fabuloso álbum el cantante Lázaro Armenteros. Luisito Guerra en piano, Rafa Águila en flauta, Kiki Ferrer y Moisés Porro en las percusiones completaron esta maravillosa travesía musical rumbo al oriente de la isla. Invitada de lujo: Lucrecia.

What has gone wrong with the left—and what leftists must do if they want to change politics, ethics, and minds. Leftists have long taught that people in the West must take responsibility for centuries of classism, racism, colonialism, patriarchy, and other gross injustices. Of course, right-wingers constantly ridicule this claim for its “wokeness.”  In Coming Clean: The Rise of Critical Theory and the Future of the Left ( MIT Press, 2025), Eric Heinze rejects the idea that we should be less woke. In fact, we need more wokeness, but of a new kind. Yes, we must teach about these bleak pasts, but we must also educate the public about the left's own support for regimes that damaged and destroyed millions of lives for over a century—Stalin in the Soviet Union, Mao Zedong in China, Pol Pot in Cambodia, or the Kim dynasty in North Korea. Criticisms of Western wrongdoing are certainly important, yet Heinze explains that leftists have rarely engaged in the kinds of open and public self-scrutiny that they demand from others. Citing examples as different as the Ukraine war, LGBTQ+ people in Cuba, the concept of “hatred,” and the problem of leftwing antisemitism, Heinze explains why and how the left must change its memory politics if it is to claim any ethical high ground.

Solidarity takes on many forms but for over four decades one vivid example rose out of a design and print studio in Havana, Cuba. Born in 1966 out of the Tricontinental Conference the Organization of Solidarity of the People of Asia, Africa, and Latin America (Organización de Solidaridad de los Pueblos de Asia, África y América Latina — OSPAAAL) strove to unite liberation movements across the three continents. The Tricontinental magazine and the colorful, multi-lingual posters inserted within became legendary and covered the walls of activists and revolutionaries around the world. Inspired by the intersection of graphic design and political solidarity, the Brooklyn-based Interference Archive hosted an retrospective exhibit of the work of OSPAAAL. Now, publishers Common Notions have released an astonishing and beautiful new book not only celebrating the legacy but inviting us all to explore how we can contribute to this vital work of moving towards social transformation. We're joined in conversation by two of the editors of the book Armed by Design: Posters and Publications of Cuba's OSPAAAL, Lani Hanna and Josh MacPhee.

The Cuban people have been through so much over the last 60 plus years with intense periods of hardship, especially over the last decade. The bulk of this hardship, I suspect, is due to the Blockade. But there is a disturbing trend developing at least as far back as the Obama administration, that elements of the Cuban society are succumbing to American pressure and are serving roles willingly or not against the very principles of the Revolution. If that is the case, how does the resistance in the streets react to the reality of the enemy within so to speak? And has the Revolutionary fight weakened with the death of the legendary Fidel Castro? That concept will be the subscript to the discussion in a special episode of this program.

Gary Hill - A Wilderness of MirrorsJan 12, 2023In the fifty nine years since the assassination of JFK, rumours and conjecture have propagated to almost a jungle level; each path has offshoots, some promising, some dead ends. An entire industry has not only grown up surrounding the events of 11/22/63, it has spawned its' own conspiracies and hyperbole.Gary Hill has looked into Lee Oswald, and has found a veritable hall of mirrors. The assassin who played with his landladies children the morning of the day he allegedly shot the President. The Freedom for Cuba man on the Government payroll. The man who seemingly could be both in New Orleans and Dallas at the same time. Did Ruby know him? Was he a willing participant who doubled crossed his masters, only to be double crossed himself? Who was he looking to meet in the third seat of the third row of the movie theatre? And just how did the FBI have his profile so quickly?Oswald is a myriad of mysteries himself; those surviving who knew him either don't want to talk about him or have wildly differing recollections of the man who ‘killed the dream of Camelot'. As late as 2018 Marina Oswald would only talk about him at a distance and not on camera.What and who was Oswald? And why did they need to silence him? Gary Hill talks about Oswald and his association with Robert E. Webster in a book which  is the story of two men who began an odyssey together that became a thread, which when unraveled, reveals how Cold War paranoia escalated into the death of a president. Robert Edward Webster and Lee Harvey Oswald were manipulated like marionettes on strings of espionage. Unraveling these strings (or threads) may lead us to the puppeteers controlling them.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

It's Wednesday, May 14th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark 80% of Cuban churches are not legal Evangelical Focus reports the Alliance of Christians in Cuba met recently to highlight religious freedom violations in the country.  The alliance noted that over 80% of churches in Cuba are unable to have legal status. Churches face confiscation of property and pastors face obstacles just to visit people in hospitals or nursing homes. Religious leaders in the country suffered nearly 1,000 repressive acts last year.  Cuba is ranked 26th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of nations where it is most difficult to be a Christian.  British Evangelical church attendance up The United Kingdom Evangelical Alliance released its Changing Church 2025 survey. The study found Evangelical churches experienced an average of 13% increase in attendance between 2020 and 2025. Also, churches have documented twice as many people expressing interest in the Christian faith as well as making first time commitments to Jesus compared to 2021. In Matthew 11:28, Jesus said, “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” United Kingdom closes its borders Speaking of the United Kingdom, the nation's prime minister, Keir Starmer, announced Monday that Britain would be ending its open borders experiment. Listen to comments he made at a press conference. STARMER: “Nations depend on rules. … Now in a diverse nation like ours, and I celebrate that, these rules become even more important. Without them, we risk becoming an island of strangers, not a nation that walks forward together. … So yes, I believe in this. I believe we need to reduce immigration significantly.” Starmer said he would raise English language requirements and the skills threshold for people entering the U.K. Saudi Arabia invests $600 billion in America President Donald Trump, who visited Saudi Arabia in person yesterday, announced that our ally will be investing $600 billion in the United States. This includes a $142 billion deal for the U.S. to sell weapons to Saudi Arabia. Trump made the announcement during a visit to the Middle East. TRUMP: “We've seen wealth that just poured and is pouring back into America. Apple is investing $500 billion, Nvidia is investing $500 billion, [Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company] is investing $200 billion and, with this trip, we're adding over $1 trillion more, in terms of investment into our country, and buying our products.” During his trip, Trump also announced he would be lifting sanctions on Syria to “give them a chance at greatness.”  Planned Parenthood gives transgender drugs available to minors Live Action released an undercover investigation recently, showing how easy it is for minors to get transgender drugs through Planned Parenthood. An undercover operative, posing as a 16-year-old, was offered such drugs by 30 facilities. Lila Rose, the founder and president of Live Action, wrote on X, “Planned Parenthood is prescribing cross sex hormones for minors — same-day prescriptions via virtual appointments. … Defund Planned Parenthood now!” Proverbs 12:10 says, “The tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.” Tennessee ensures teachers & students can use accurate pronouns Tennessee Republican Governor Bill Lee  signed House Bill 1270 into law last Friday. The measure takes on gender ideology in public schools.  Teachers and students cannot be forced to use biologically inaccurate pronouns that violate their beliefs. Matt Sharp, Senior Counsel at Alliance Defending Freedom, said, “In no world is it acceptable for the government to discipline students or force good educators or other public servants out of a job all for the sake of promoting gender ideology. With this legislation, Tennessee is rightfully stepping into the gap to protect freedom of speech and conscience.” Tariffs brought in $16 billion to U.S. Treasury U.S. tariff revenues reached all-time highs last month. Customs duties brought in $16.3 billion in April, up from $8.75 billion in March. Overall, tariff receipts are up 18% this year compared to last year. This comes after Trump instituted a 10% tariff on all U.S. imports last month. 115-year-old woman is oldest person alive And finally, Guinness World Records reports a woman from the U.K. is now the oldest woman alive as well as the oldest person alive. Ethel Caterham lives in Surrey, England. She is 115 years old. She became the world's oldest living person after Inah Canabarro Lucas from Brazil died at the age of 116 last month.  Ethel lived an adventurous life while looking out for others, especially children. She outlived her husband and two daughters. She now has three granddaughters and five great-grandchildren. Commenting on her longevity, she once told the Salisbury Journal, “Say yes to every opportunity because you never know what it will lead to. Have a positive mental attitude and have everything in moderation.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, May 14th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

Desite the turbulence of the Reconquista, the conquest of America, the invasion of Napoleon, and the loss of every New World colony from California to Cuba, the Roman Catholic Church remained the foundation of solid yet stultifying social order. As the people of the kingdom began to struggle against these ancient bonds, the unspeakable question was posed: could there be a Spain without the church? For generations of Spaniards, this matter was so grave that it was worth the blood of innocents, the destruction of priceless chapels and relics, and a civil war that would split Iberia, and the world, into the camps of secular Republicanism and merciless Nationalism.Longtime collaborator and Catholic correspondent James @gommunisd returns to Gladio Free Europe to explore the spiritual front of the Spanish Civil War, a complex and poignant conflict that in many ways prefigured the flames of despair that would consume nearly the entire planet in World War II. We begin with a look at the long history of anticlericalism in the Spanish Kingdom, as generations of Spaniards of all social classes rejected control of the church for various reasons and by various means. From the establishment of public schools rather than parish schools, to the violent destruction of monasteries and even killings of clergy, this had been a major part of Spanish history for a century before the Civil War. But as economic and intellectual transformations brought a semi-medieval Spanish society into the modern era, objections to this marriage of church and state became too loud to ignore. After the ruination of the Spanish American War and the despair of the Depression, the contest between a new Spain and an Old Spain boiled over an armed conflict that ended with over 200,000 innocents dead and the kingdom in the clutches of history's most successful fascist state.In the second half of the episode, James explores international religious reactions to the war in Spain. Although American Catholics were mostly Democrats within Franklin Roosevelt's progressive New Deal coalition, church institutions overwhelmingly supported the nationalist clique despite the US policy of neutrality. As evidence of right-wing atrocities mounted, the American Catholic community found itself torn apart in its own sort of civil war. Meanwhile in the United Kingdom, Catholics and Protestants alike took part in delegations to Spain, gathering vital information about the conflict as it was happening. The Spanish Civil War was a test of integrity to civil and religious institutions across the western world: When atrocities are committed in your name, do you speak up? Or do you shut your eyes as children are killed in the name of God and country?

Dans l'histoire de l'agriculture mondiale, peu d'animaux ont connu la notoriété d'Ubre Blanca, une vache cubaine devenue un symbole national dans les années 1980. Son nom, qui signifie « mamelle blanche » en espagnol, est aujourd'hui encore évoqué comme un exploit biologique… et un instrument politique.Ubre Blanca était une vache croisée entre une Holstein (race laitière allemande) et une Zébu cubaine, deux races choisies pour allier forte production laitière et adaptation au climat tropical. Ce croisement a été initié par les équipes agricoles sous la direction du gouvernement de Fidel Castro, qui voyait dans l'agriculture un levier de souveraineté nationale.En 1982, Ubre Blanca bat un record mondial homologué par le Livre Guinness des records : elle produit 113,5 litres de lait en une seule journée, là où une vache classique produit entre 20 et 30 litres. Sur une période de 305 jours, elle donne 24 268,9 litres, pulvérisant les standards de l'époque. À titre de comparaison, une vache française moyenne produit aujourd'hui autour de 9 000 litres par an.Cette prouesse n'est pas qu'un exploit agricole, elle devient un symbole de la réussite du socialisme cubain. Fidel Castro lui-même évoque fréquemment Ubre Blanca dans ses discours comme preuve que l'homme nouveau et l'agriculture d'État peuvent surpasser les limites imposées par la nature. L'animal devient une véritable célébrité nationale : des articles lui sont consacrés, des poèmes sont écrits à sa gloire, et même une statue en marbre est érigée à Nueva Gerona, sur l'île de la Jeunesse, après sa mort en 1985.Mais Ubre Blanca est aussi le produit d'un encadrement scientifique et vétérinaire intense. Elle vivait sous surveillance constante, nourrie selon un régime hyper-contrôlé, dans des conditions qui n'étaient pas reproductibles à l'échelle nationale. Malgré les tentatives de clonage menées dans les années 2000, aucune autre vache n'a jamais atteint un tel niveau de production à Cuba.Sa mort marque la fin d'un rêve, mais pas celle du mythe. Aujourd'hui encore, Ubre Blanca symbolise à la fois l'orgueil agricole d'un petit pays sous embargo, les limites de l'exploitation animale, et l'instrumentalisation de la science à des fins idéologiques.Si elle ne broute plus depuis longtemps, la mémoire d'Ubre Blanca continue de ruminer dans l'imaginaire cubain, entre admiration sincère et propagande bien orchestrée. Une vache devenue, en quelque sorte, une légende d'État. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

ORIGINALLY RELEASED Nov 13, 2017 Dr. Thoreau Redcrow is an American academic with a Ph.D. in Conflict Analysis with a concentration in Global Conflict. Thoreau is a researcher who specializes in studying armed guerrilla movements, and who has over a decade of experience studying the life and legacy of Che Guevara. His prior investigations into Che's biography have taken him to Cuba to speak to those who knew and fought alongside Che, as well as to other arenas around the world which have been influenced by Che Guevara's armed struggle. Brett sits down with Dr. Redcrow to discuss the Argentine Marxist revolutionary; including an entire segment of the podcast dedicated to debunking many of the right-wing and anti-communist lies about him. Topics Include: Che's childhood, the political context out of which Che emerged, the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro, debunking lies and slander about Che, The Bay of Pigs, Anti-Imperialism, "Guevarism", Marx, Lenin, and much, MUCH more! ---------------------------------------------------- Support Rev Left and get access to bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/revleftradio Make a one-time donation to Rev Left at BuyMeACoffee.com/revleftradio Follow, Subscribe, & Learn more about Rev Left Radio HERE Outro Beat Prod. by flip da hood

In this remastered episode of Guerrilla History (originally released in June 2022), we bring on a very special guest, Margrit Schiller!  Margrit was associated early on with the Red Army Faction, before being imprisoned and tortured by the West German state, being forced into exile in Cuba and Uruguay, and then having to move back to Germany more or less against her will.  A fascinating life story from someone just as committed to the struggle as ever! Margrit Schiller is author of Remembering the Armed Struggle: My Time with the Red Army Faction.  We highly recommend picking yourself up a copy from PM Press (https://pmpress.org/index.php?l=product_detail&p=1195).  Margrit's struggles within and against this system continue, and grabbing a copy of her book is a good way to help while we are still forced to operate within capitalism.

What would you sacrifice for freedom? For Monet Bacs, Strategic Director at the LIBRE Initiative in Arizona, her father's answer was clear—everything. In this moving episode, host David From sits down with Monet to explore the legacy of her father, who fled Guatemala in search of opportunity, safety, and a future he couldn't find at home. Arriving in the U.S. as a teenage exchange student who spoke no English, Monet's father built a life rooted in hard work, sacrifice, and unwavering belief in the American Dream. “I'd rather be homeless in America than live under tyranny,” he once said—and he lived those words, choosing struggle in freedom over comfort in oppression. Monet also opens up about her grandfather's horrifying experience in communist Cuba and how her father's heartbreaking death during COVID, amid a broken healthcare system, ignited her passion for meaningful policy reform. Today, she works through the LIBRE Initiative to empower Hispanic communities with access to economic opportunity, education, and better healthcare—carrying forward the legacy of sacrifice and service passed down by her father. It's a powerful story of resilience, purpose, and what it truly means to honor freedom.
