    Thousands of containers filled with food, #medicine and other goods bound for #Cuba have been stranded throughout the #Caribbean since two shipping giants stopped deliveries to avoid tough #US #sanctions, according to diplomats, Cuban officials, merchants and others involved in the imports.

    The containers stranded in various ports include humanitarian aid, from #SolarPanels to #medication to colostomy bags. Dozens of containers of aid purchased by different #UN agencies are among them.

    US sanctions have also hobbled shipments by air, and forced the #WorldHealthOrganization to scrap planned deliveries of cancer drugs.

  11. Video - They Were Told Their Hair Wasn’t Presentable. Now They’re Proving Otherwise
    peertube.world/w/t82VSXQ6v7U59
    Released 9/16 | Duration - 3:55

    [a #video on #Peertube about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]

    The 4th edition of “Lo Llevamos Rizo,” only natural #Afro hair pageant, brought together Cuban stylists and their clients to celebrate #Black beauty, identity and roots.

    For the entrepreneurs involved, it’s a chance to connect despite the challenges of running import-dependent businesses while the #US wages economic war on the island.

    The event pushes back against decades of #beauty standards that treated natural #BlackHair as something to be fixed or hidden.

  16. Video - Rep. Carlos Giménez: U.S. is “Trying to Starve” Cuba
    peertube.world/w/7bvwzdzREGkUH

    [a #video on #Peertube about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]

    “Trying to starve them.”

    That's how Rep. Carlos Giménez (R-FL) describes U.S. policy toward Cuba.

    During an interview on CNN’s Inside Politics, Giménez said the U.S. wants to “put the squeeze” on Cuba and compares the approach to the U.S. strategy against Iran — where the U.S. has carried out thousands of airstrikes since February.

    “Eventually what I think we need to do is leave all options on the table,” he said.

    [a #video on #Peertube about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]

    "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.

    [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.

    [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.
