Cuba by Sea Cienfuegos to Havana Aboard Variety Voyager
MUSEUM TRAVEL ALLIANCE Cuba by Sea Cienfuegos to Havana Aboard Variety Voyager January 24–February 1, 2019 MUSEUM TRAVEL ALLIANCE Dear Members and Friends of the National Building Museum, Please join us next January for a cultural cruise along Cuba’s Caribbean coast. From Cienfuegos to Havana, we will journey aboard a privately chartered yacht, discovering well-preserved colonial architecture and fascinating small museums, visiting talented artists in their studios, and enjoying private concerts and other exclusive events. The Museum Travel Alliance (MTA) provides museums with the opportunity to offer their members and patrons high-end educational travel programming. Trips are available exclusively through MTA members and co-sponsoring non- profit institutions. This voyage is co-sponsored by The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Association of Yale Alumni. Traveling with us on this cultural cruise are a Cuban-American architect and a partner in an award-winning design firm, a curator from The Metropolitan Museum of Art, and a Professor in the Music Department and African American Studies and American Studies at Yale University. In Cienfuegos, view the city’s French-accented buildings on an architectural tour before boarding the sleek Variety Voyager to travel to picturesque Trinidad. Admire the exquisite antiques and furniture displayed in the Romantic Museum and tour the studios of prominent local artists. Continue to Cayo Largo to meet local naturalists, and to remote Isla de la Juventud to see the Panopticon prison (now a museum) that once held Fidel Castro. We will also visit with marine ecologists on María la Gorda, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, before continuing to Havana for our two-day finale. -

DISTRIBUTION, ABUNDANCE, AND STATUS OF CUBAN SANDHILL CRANES (GRUS CANADENSIS NESIOTES) XIOMARA GALVEZ AGUILERA1,3 AND FELIPE CHAVEZ-RAMIREZ2,4 Published by the Wilson Ornithological Society The Wilson Journal of Ornithology 122(3):556–562, 2010 DISTRIBUTION, ABUNDANCE, AND STATUS OF CUBAN SANDHILL CRANES (GRUS CANADENSIS NESIOTES) XIOMARA GALVEZ AGUILERA1,3 AND FELIPE CHAVEZ-RAMIREZ2,4 ABSTRACT.—We conducted the first country-wide survey between 1994 and 2002 to examine the distribution, abundance, and conservation status of Sandhill Crane (Grus canadensis nesiotes) populations throughout Cuba. Ground or air surveys or both were conducted at all identified potential areas and locations previously reported in the literature. We define the current distribution as 10 separate localities in six provinces and the estimated total number of cranes at 526 individuals for the country. Two populations reported in the literature were no longer present and two localities not previously reported were discovered. The actual number of cranes at two localities was not possible to evaluate due to their rarity. Only four areas (Isle of Youth, Matanzas, Ciego de Avila, and Sancti Spiritus) each support more than 70 cranes. -

RESTLESS THE STORY OF EL ‘CHE’ GUEVARA by ALEX COX & TOD DAVIES first draft 19 jan 1993 © Davies & Cox 1993 2 VALLEGRANDE PROVINCE, BOLIVIA EXT EARLY MORNING 30 JULY 1967 In a deep canyon beside a fast-flowing river, about TWENTY MEN are camped. Bearded, skinny, strained. Most are asleep in attitudes of exhaustion. One, awake, stares in despair at the state of his boots. Pack animals are tethered nearby. MORO, Cuban, thickly bearded, clad in the ubiquitous fatigues, prepares coffee over a smoking fire. "CHE" GUEVARA, Revolutionary Commandant and leader of this expedition, hunches wheezing over his journal - a cherry- coloured, plastic-covered agenda. Unable to sleep, CHE waits for the coffee to relieve his ASTHMA. CHE is bearded, 39 years old. A LIGHT flickers on the far side of the ravine. MORO Shit. A light -- ANGLE ON RAUL A Bolivian, picking up his M-1 rifle. RAUL Who goes there? VOICE Trinidad Detachment -- GUNFIRE BREAKS OUT. RAUL is firing across the river at the light. Incoming bullets whine through the camp. EVERYONE is awake and in a panic. ANGLE ON POMBO CHE's deputy, a tall Black Cuban, helping the weakened CHE aboard a horse. CHE's asthma worsens as the bullets fly. CHE Chino! The supplies! 3 ANGLE ON CHINO Chinese-Peruvian, round-faced and bespectacled, rounding up the frightened mounts. OTHER MEN load the horses with supplies - lashing them insecurely in their haste. It's getting light. SOLDIERS of the Bolivian Army can be seen across the ravine, firing through the trees. POMBO leads CHE's horse away from the gunfire. -

RESEÑAS 326 Reseñas
RESEÑAS 326 Reseñas Alarcón Ramírez, Dariel (“Benigno”). Memorias de un soldado cubano: Vida y muerte de la Revolución. Barcelona: Lumen&Tusquets Editores, 1a. edición en español, 1997, Colección Andanzas; 3a. edición en español, 2004, Colección Fábula. 360 páginas. Título original en francés: Vie et mort de la révolution cubaine. Fernando Cubides Profesor Titular, Departamento de Sociología Universidad Nacional de Colombia, sede Bogotá Sobreviviente. Así de escueta es la definición final que la editora de estas memorias ofrece del personaje que las relata. Parece evocar la manera en que se definía uno de los protagonistas claves de la Revolución Francesa para resumir los méritos de su propia participación: el Abate Sieyès, cuando la misma había terminado su ciclo histórico: “Sobreviví” ( “J’ai véçu”). Y es que, por lo visto, tratándose de revoluciones, haber participado en una de ellas, y haberla sobrevivi- do, es ya un mérito formidable. “Benigno”, el nombre de guerra con el que figura en el diario del Ché en Bolivia; o Dariel Alarcón Ramírez, como figura en el pasaporte francés como asilado político; o Dariel Roselló Ramírez, como debería haberse llamado este hijo de militar español y criolla cubana, si las circunstancias no lo hubiesen separado de sus padres en la primera infancia; es pues, ante todo un sobreviviente. Condición que impresiona más si se tiene en cuenta que al triunfo de la Revolución no inicia un ascenso en cargos de responsabilidad política, pues su analfabetismo sumado a una ingenuidad campesina –guajira– se lo impiden, sino que es asignado a las misiones más difíciles para las que ya fuere Camilo Cienfuegos, o el Ché Guevara, o el propio Fidel, lo consideran especialmente dotado dada sus cualidades de hombre de guerra, probadas desde las primeras acciones en las que toma parte. -
