Obtuvo la licenciatura de la escuela profesional The Citadel en 1956, y después fue a Corea en misión militar. Cuando regresó se unió a Fidel Castro en el movimiento 26 de Julio. Después de la revolución, Castro le dio a Macaulay y a su esposa Nancy tierra en la provincia de Pinar del Río, cerca de San Cristóbal. En esta tierra, llamada la Finca Nancy, los Macaulay cultivaron tomates y pepinos principalmente para exportación a E.U. En 1960, desencantado cuando Castro adoptó un gobierno comunista, Macaulay trajo a su familia de regreso a los E.U. En 1962, Macaulay obtuvo la maestría en historia en la Universidad de Carolina del Sur, y en 1965, el doctorado en historia en la Universidad de Texas. Fue profesor de historia brasileña en la Universidad de Florida de 1964 hasta 1986, cuando se jubiló. En 1991, fue de nuevo a Cuba para llevar a cabo investigación académica y para restablecer contacto con sus antiguos compañeros. Fue un académico muy prolífico con un gran interés por Cuba, el Caribe, y el resto de Latinoamérica. Sus publicaciones incluyen The Sandino Affair (1967), The Prestes Column: Revolution in Brazil (1974), Dom Pedro: the Struggle for Liberty in Brazil and Portugal, 1798-1834 (1986), y sus memorias de la Revolución Cubana: A Rebel in Cuba (1970, 1999).

Documentos personales; 6. Misceláneo; 7. Álbumes y fotos; 8. Material audiovisual. La serie de Correspondencia es una de las más importantes porque documenta la participación de Neill Macaulay en la Revolución Cubana, la vida familiar en la Finca Nancy, su activismo político, sus conexiones cercanas con la gente cubana y su vida académica. Es de especial interés una copia mecanografiada de una carta que Neill Macaulay le escribió a Fidel Castro. Las cartas que Neill y Nancy escribieron a sus parientes y amigos también son significativas porque ilustran su vida en Cuba. La serie Publicaciones y escritos incluye borradores, correspondencia y artículos tanto académicos como informales. También contiene memorias no publicadas sobre los años de juventud de Macaulay y su vida en Cuba, así como correspondencia relacionada a sus publicaciones. La serie Ponencias, pláticas, apuntes, notas incluye trabajos que hizo como estudiante, material no publicado, entrevistas, y listas de contactos.

De especial interés son las listas de los participantes en el Frente Guerrillero de Pinar del Río, la columna guerrillera de Neill Macaulay durante el movimiento del 26 de Julio. La serie Material sobre Cuba incluye material mixto como recortes de periódicos, artículos y otras publicaciones sobre Cuba. Entre éstos llama la atención un ejemplar de una de las ediciones de la libertad de la revista Bohemia hechas especialmente para los miembros del movimiento 26 de Julio con una dedicación de René González Novales "El Rubio" para Macaulay. La serie de Documentos personales incluye credenciales y otros documentos relacionados a la vida y los negocios en Cuba. La serie Misceláneo incluye material referente a Florida, como la muerte de Councille Blye y el juicio y ejecución de Ted Bundy.

THE CUBAN MILITARY AND TRANSITION DYNAMICS Cuba Transition Project – CTP The Cuba Transition Project, at the Institute for Cuban and Cuban-American Studies (ICCAS), University of Miami, is an important and timely project to study and make recommendations for the reconstruction of Cuba once the post-Castro transition begins in earnest.

  • “Cuba's Revolutionary Armed Forces: How Revolutionary Have They
    “Cuba’s Revolutionary Armed Forces: How Revolutionary Have They Been? How Revolutionary Are They Now?” Hal Klepak Professor Emeritus of Strategy and Latin American History Royal Military College of Canada “El Caribe en su Inserción Internacional” Conference of the Tulane University Center for Inter-American Policy and Research San José, Costa Rica 3-4 January 2009 Introduction This paper will argue that Cuba’s Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias (FAR) have been, and to a great degree still are, ‘revolutionary’ in the contexts of what the armed forces of that country were before 1959, of what Latin American armed forces are and do traditionally, of what those forces normally think about themselves, and of those armed forces in regard to Cuba’s role in international affairs since the Revolution. These four elements will provide the threads for the argument to be made. Thus one will first address what these forces were and how they saw themselves in the years of the revolutionary struggle for power, and the structuring of them after 1959. We will then look at how their roles, structures and ways of seeing themselves changed over the years after their taking of Havana and installing the government of Fidel Castro in power. And finally we will assess their revolutionary credentials since the shattering experience of the Special Period and the subsequent major leadership changes the island has known in recent months. El Ejército Rebelde The army of Fidel Castro’s struggle in the mountains of Cuba’s then easternmost Oriente province, the Ejército Rebelde of now epic memory, takes for the date of its founding the day in November 1956 when the tiny force of 82 men on board the small yacht Granma disembarked to begin the long fight to rid the country of the dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista Zaldivar and bring about deep reform of the island’s political, economic and social system.

  • Otero-Autobiography
    Otero\Enemy 607 CHAPTER 14 POVERTY IS THE GREATEST VIOLENCE Mahatma Gandhi The Riot in the Miami Ghettos. The killing of Arthur McDuffy in Miami by local cops created tension in the ghettos of the Black community. To pacify the Black community, the State Attorney's office filed criminal charges against the police officers for the assassination of McDuffy. Circuit County Judge Leonord Nesbitt presided over the trial, and Hank Adorno and George Yoss were the acting prosecutors, hungry for publicity. They were a team of judicial clowns. The trial was granted a change of venue to Tampa, where Judge Nesbitt provided devious instructions to the state jury to acquit the police officers of the violation of excessive use of force. The acquittal caused another riot in Liberty City. Under heavy political pressure from the now well-organized Black communities in the United States and feeling embarrassed by the incident, the Federal Government filed charges against all the police officers for violation of civil rights. During the preliminary proceedings the court received telephone calls, made apparently by police officers, issuing a warning that a bomb would detonate inside the courthouse. Of course, the legal proceedings were canceled because of the potential violence that the local trial might generate in the Black community as well as the police officers who were discontented with the criminal charges against their co-workers. Eventually, the circuit judge granted the petition filed by the defense for a change of venue to Atlanta, Georgia. Subsequently, the case continued to seek jurisdiction in Texas, where the police officers were acquitted.
