Video - US Voices Against the Blockade | Episode 3: Justine Medina
https://peertube.world/w/2S27HG4E8Mih59hNA9Hh4N
Duration - 2:06[a #video about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]
Justine Medina is a barista and Cuban-American activist opposed to the embargo imposed by the #US government on Cuba, the island she considers her other homeland.
After multiple visits to Cuba, she says conditions have worsened: food shortages, scarcity of medicine and constant blackouts that make daily life harder.
According to Justine, this war, which has lasted 66 years and has intensified over time, only causes more suffering for the people.
“I grew up hearing criticism of the Cuban government,” says Justine, who was raised in Florida. “But I also learned that the #embargo should end.”

Video - In the face of U.S. aggression, Cubans march on May Day
https://peertube.world/w/fjfMzj22AzifnEqDtgCvZk
Duration - 1:06[a #video about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]
Thousands of Cubans marched this Friday to the José Martí Anti-Imperialist Tribune in Havana, in front of the #US Embassy, as well as to squares and parks across the rest of the country, to celebrate #MayDay.
“Cuba defends itself” was the slogan of the marches, as thousands took to the streets in support of the Cuban Revolution and rejection of U.S. economic warfare and military.
This year’s May Day marches take place amid a deepening economic crisis marked by shortages of medicine, food and fuel that have been brought about in large part by U.S. sanctions.

[#Cuba]From the working-class heart of the United States: voices in search of truth and solidarity
https://groups.io/g/cubanews/message/52475article from #Trabajadores, offical organ of the Cuban Workers' Federation (CTC)
April 26, 2026The presence of the United States delegation at the Union Internship organized annually by the Cuban Workers' Federation (CTC) takes on special significance in the context of the May Day celebrations. Coordinated by activist Mark Friedman, founder of the #HandsOffCubaCommittee, some fifty visitors have arrived with a clear purpose: to understand the Cuban reality, to exchange ideas with its people, and to take back a perspective that is certainly different from the one that prevails in their own country.

The Interreligious Dialogue Platform in #Cuba once again raised its voice and prayers to express the concern and rejection of the island's #religious community regarding the current escalation of violence that undermines the self-determination and sovereignty of peoples.

From beauty to transportation, a lack of water and power forces Cubans to change their routines
https://apnews.com/article/cuba-power-water-routines-trump-us-government-c4e85c4a9236b881667c0e931b2b5576from #AssociatedPress #AP
April 23, 2026 [with video]Severe shortages of water, power and money combined with a #US #energy #blockade have deepened poverty and increased hunger across the island as severe blackouts persist. Even those who are more affluent are now eliminating long-established and often beloved routines as they adapt to increasingly dire realities.
#Cuba’s government has said that the elimination of the U.S. energy #embargo was a top priority for its delegation, calling it an “act of economic coercion” and “unjustified punishment.”

Hundreds of Cubans gathered in Havana to mark the 65th anniversary of #FidelCastro’s declaration of the #socialist character of the Cuban Revolution.

https://peertube.world/w/3RqLrUtMocAiYgCbNiTMGT[a #video about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]

Video - Lula at FAO: "Cuba Knows How to Produce — They're Being Denied the Right To"
https://peertube.world/w/onrda1xcWZgNwSAvU3AAH9[a #video about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]
Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva argued that the island’s food crisis cannot be explained simply by production problems but with more than 60 years of #US economic warfare against Cuba.
Speaking at the opening of the #FAO Regional Conference for #LatinAmerica and the #Caribbean, #Lula’s comments come at a time when Cuba is facing a deep economic crisis, marked by food shortages and long blackouts, which have intensified under the #Trump administration's #blockade of #oil shipments.

‘Cuba Is the Moral and Political Compass of the World’ (II) (of 3)
Interview with Cuban Leader Ernesto Limia Díaz
Nov 8, 2025from #WorldOutlook
But if, in the framework of the war to damage the #Cuban #electric system, you buy the company that supplies spare parts to the largest source of electrical energy generation in #Cuba — the Antonio Guiteras thermo-electric plant in Matanzas — you are moving to another level.
That was done by the #Biden administration, which left all of #Trump’s measures in place and, in addition, provided what it believed to be the checkmate: as part of an operation between the government, the CIA, and finance capital, #GeneralElectric bought the French firm that built the Guiteras and was therefore committed to guaranteeing the supply of spare parts and maintenance. A Dantesque maneuver, devised by cynical people of the worst moral character.
