Cuba's Struggles in 2025. More than "El Bloqueo?"

Cuba's Struggles in 2025. More than "El Bloqueo?"

Author: Alternate Current Radio May 16, 2025 Duration: 59:25
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.

Tune in to Global Research News Hour, a weekly program from the team at Alternate Current Radio that brings the work of the Centre for Research on Globalization directly to your ears. Based in Montreal, the CRG operates as an independent, non-profit research and media organization, and this audio extension of their mission digs into the stories and analyses that often exist outside mainstream headlines. Each episode functions as a deep-dive conversation, drawing from the Centre's extensive network of researchers, authors, and activists involved in publishing, humanitarian projects, and public education. You'll hear detailed discussions on the pressing societal and cultural issues shaping our world, from geopolitics and economics to environmental crises and social movements. The tone is substantive and inquisitive, prioritizing context and evidence over sound bites. This isn't just a summary of the news; it's a critical examination of the forces behind it, offering listeners a more nuanced understanding of global events. Produced by Alternate Current Radio, this podcast serves as an essential audio companion for anyone looking to move beyond superficial reporting and engage with the complex realities of our interconnected world.
