Subjects and Indexing Terms Audiotapes Cuba -- History -- 1959-1990 Castro, Fidel, 1926-2016 Sound recording Scope and Contents note The recording begins with a six-minute introduction that discusses the lies and violence of Castro's regime and describes Juanita's statement as particularly moving due to its emotion and brutal description of Cuba's reality. It is described as a speech that is galvanizing people to demand justice. The speech occurs on Part One of the recording, from 6:14 to 20:23. It is Juanita's official press conference/statement in Mexico, 1964, to give the Mexican people a summary of her role in the revolution against Batista and the efforts she made against her brothers after her disillusionment with the movement brought by violence, communism and Russian imperialism. She describes the current conditions and climate of terror and panic in Cuba, lack of food and medical car,e and confirms that Cuba is influencing other communist/ socialist movements in Latin America. She ultimately asks for Mexico's acceptance as a political refugee and renounces the government for its abuses. The remainder of Part One and all of Part Two is comprised of music and reading of scripture (both in English and Spanish), called "La Hora Vespertina."

Centre for Cultural Policy Research School of Culture and Creative Arts University of Glasgow Glasgow G12 8QQ June 2011 © Christine Lohmeier, 2011 Abstract This thesis examines an exile community‘s relation to media. In particular, it focuses on the case of the Cuban-American community and English- as well as Spanish-language media based in Miami, FL. Following the revolution under Fidel Castro in 1959, Miami developed into the capital of the Cuban exile. Over the past decades, the Cuban-American community formed a nucleus which attracted further migration from South America and the Caribbean. The incoming migrants contributed to turning Miami into a flourishing economic urban space.

Vasco Tristão Leitão Da Cunha, Fidel Castro (And His Sister), and Brazilian-Cuban
UNCORRECTED DRAFT—4/11/14 A "Friend of the Revolution" or a “Traitor”? Vasco Tristão Leitão da Cunha, Fidel Castro (and his Sister), and Brazilian-Cuban Relations, 1956-1964 By James G. Hershberg Professor of History and International Affairs George Washington University ([email protected]) Presented to the Panel, “New Perspectives on Latin America’s Cold War” International Studies Association/Facultad Latinoamericana de Ciencias Sociales (ISA/FLACSO) Conference, Buenos Aires, Argentina, 23 July 2014 1 This presentation draws on my ongoing book project on the US-Cuban-Brazilian triangular relationship (or quadrangular, if one adds their relations with what was quaintly still known as the “Sino-Soviet bloc”) at the height of the Cold War, in the early 1960s, a span encompassing such tumultuous events as the Cuban Revolution, the Bay of Pigs affair, and the Cuban Missile Crisis. My inquiry originated in, and spun off from, my longstanding in the international history of the October 1962 missile crisis, when in the late 1990s I first noticed (in a translated Soviet document) that at the height of the missile crisis, Brazil was involved in a secret mediation effort between US President John F. Kennedy and Cuban leader Fidel Castro. That Soviet document described a meeting between Castro and a special emissary sent by Brazil’s president, João Goulart, just after the crisis climaxed, relaying what in fact was a laundered U.S. proposal (although Castro didn’t realize that). On searching for background in the relevant literature—to use in annotating the document for the Cold War International History Project Bulletin, which I then edited—I discovered that none existed.
