"The blockade is warfare.”
That’s how Greg Levi describes #US policy toward Cuba after traveling to the island and seeing its impact firsthand.
Levi, a #socialist candidate for the #USSenate in #Ohio, talked with BotB journalist Liz Oliva Fernández about what he saw in Cuban #hospitals and communities, why he believes US citizens don’t know much about Cuba, and why he refuses to stay silent despite the political risks.
He also opens up about his working-class roots, his experience in the US military, his criticism of US democracy and why he chose to run for Senate as an independent socialist.

Video - Inside the Cuban Café Where People With Autism and Down Syndrome Work
https://peertube.world/w/696hHN82o8to8pzQcaG5DE
Duration - 4:40[a #video on #Peertube about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]
When a mother couldn’t find a place willing to employ her son Liván, who has #DownSyndrome, she decided to create one.
Liva Café in Havana employs people with intellectual disabilities and #autism, with support from specialists in #psychology and #SpecialEducation. For workers like Livan, Karel and Richard, it’s a place to earn experience, build relationships and show what they can do.
Cuba has long had policies aimed at integrating people with #disabilities into the workspace. But as the people in Liva’s story explain, significant barriers remain — particularly when it comes to finding employers willing to give them an opportunity.

Video - U.S. Sabotages Cuba’s Hospitals — Then Calls Universal Healthcare a Failure
https://peertube.world/w/vNxwt6wKcW8FqzTVMApdh3
Duration - 1:47[a #video on #Peertube about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]
U.S. Rep. Carlos Giménez (R-FL) says Cuba’s healthcare system “sucks” and “doesn’t work,” pointing to hospitals without #medicine and deteriorating conditions.
But this criticism leaves out a major part of the story: the policies Giménez has championed are the reason why Cuba’s #hospitals are collapsing. #US #EconomicWarfare has restricted Cuba’s ability to obtain medicines, #medical equipment, fuel and other resources needed to keep its #healthcare system running.

The Crab, the Vampire, and Social Differentiation in Cuba
https://world-outlook.com/2026/08/14/the-crab-the-vampire-and-social-differentiation-in-cuba/This article addresses a widespread controversy in #Cuba, sparked by the participation of #RaúlGuillermoRodríguezCastro in Cuba’s negotiations with the #US government in May. Known as Raulito, or “El Cangrejo” — “The Crab” — Rodríguez Castro is the grandson of #RaúlCastro, a central leader of the Cuban Revolution and a former president of Cuba. Many Cubans questioned or objected to Rodríguez Castro’s participation in such high-level talks because he does not hold any elected or other formal position in the Cuban government and because his public conduct renders him “a symbol of wealthy partygoers, the type who wore designer clothes and flashy jewelry, imitating the mannerisms of the moneyed North,” in the words of Michel Torres Corona, this article's author, who is a well-known Cuban TV host and a staunch supporter of the #CubanRevolution.

https://peertube.world/w/nbK89tf9rvvdhULkv6zg7V
Duration - 20:33[a #video on #Peertube about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]
Camila Guevara Milanés is a Cuban#singer-#songwriter carrying two of the most iconic last names in #LatinAmerican history. She is the granddaughter of #ErnestoCheGuevara and the Cuban troubadour #PabloMilanés.
But this story isn’t about her grandparents. It’s about a young artist finding her own voice.
In this conversation with Belly of the Beast journalist Liz Oliva Fernández, Camila reflects on the loss of her parents and grandfather, the healing process behind her debut album Dame Flores, and the challenge of building a career while carrying a legacy that follows her everywhere.
“I do have something to offer people and I’m enjoying myself while doing it. So, that’s what I came here to do,” she said.

National Nurses United in #USA demands end to the US blockade of fuel entering Cuba
from #NationalNursesUnited (on FB)
#Nurses save lives! That's why we're in D.C. demanding the #US end the #blockade of fuel entering #Cuba. This is fuel that powers water pumps and #hospitals that 11 million people depend on. Surgeries postponed. Essential #medicines gone. Infant mortality doubled. Enough!

Video - How U.S. Sanctions Affect Pregnant Women and Newborns in Cuba
https://peertube.world/w/cx4rvNyGxnwWSDXone8A2M
Duration - 1:23[a #video about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]
In recent days, #Cuban civil society organizations have denounced the devastating impact of the #US government’s economic war on the Cuban people.
Dr. Dayana Couto Núñez, president of the Cuban Society of #Gynecology and #Obstetrics, says shortages of medicines, medical supplies, technology and fuel are affecting surgeries, ultrasounds, diagnostic tests and maternal care.
According to Couto, the situation is making it harder to detect congenital malformations early and to care for premature and low-birth-weight babies, who often require specialized medication and high-tech equipment.
“Neither our women nor our children are to blame,” she said. “They need #medical care, #medicines and quality resources.”

Video - Why is the #US Indicting Raúl Castro 30 Years After the Fact?
https://peertube.world/w/7oTaQKVNf4YBYRYhsbBQhd
Duration - 3:41[a #video about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]
The Justice Department has indicted #RaúlCastro for something that occurred three decades ago — and the Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche says he’s not sure why.
The reason the #Trump administration is targeting Castro 30 years after the shooting down of the #BrothersToTheRescue planes has little to do with the pursuit of justice and everything to do with the pursuit of regime change in Cuba.

Video - Statements of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Cuba at the #UN Security Council
https://peertube.world/w/68V7f77vCxVxwLiLNxuxtz
Duration - 1:09[a #video about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]
At the #UNSecurityCouncil, Cuba’s Minister of Foreign Affairs #BrunoRodriguez called on the international community to act to prevent the “human catastrophe” that could result from the ongoing energy #blockade and potential #US #military aggression.
Thousands of Cubans would die defending their homeland,” he said. “And young US citizens would also perish, without a cause or ideal worth fighting for, dragged into violence by an #imperialist, neofascist policy of domination, plunder and conquest.”

#Video - US Voices Against the Blockade Episode 2: Imani Bashir
https://peertube.world/w/oBRgayfhyQKmpGizL1YXZj[from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]
Duration - 2:02#ImaniBashir is a Black American activist from Washington D.C. She visited to #Cuba following a radical political tradition, one that includes Malcolm X, Assata Shakur, and Kwame Ture, figures who understood the #CubanRevolution as part of a broader struggle for liberation.
For Bashir, visiting Cuba wasn't just political, it was personal. Seeing #AfroCuban people, she says, was seeing people who look like her, who share her history, who have maintained their culture and dignity under decades of sanctions.
Her argument on the #blockade is straightforward: Cuba has never been a threat to the US. It has never put #US safety, its food supply, or resources at stake. "It has only been the other way around," she says.

Video - Exclusive Interview | U.S. Lawmakers Pramila Jayapal & Jonathan Jackson Speak in Cuba
https://peertube.world/w/anhjwo2GQQxH5Xu8my1Gxd[a #video about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]
#US lawmakers Rep. #PramilaJayapal (D-WA) and Rep. #JonathanJackson (D-IL) traveled to Cuba and gave an exclusive interview to Belly of the Beast from Havana.
Their visit comes at a critical time for the island. Cuba is grappling with a deep economic crisis, fueled by U.S. “maximum pressure” #sanctions and an #oil #blockade.
“The only way to really understand the impact, the humanitarian crisis we’ve created, is by being here and talking to the Cuban people,” said Jayapal.
After their visit, both lawmakers described what they saw as a humanitarian crisis.“This is an act of war that our country must stop,” stated Jackson.
