When we look at what the U.S. is prepared to unleash onto the people of Cuba, both imperialism and the mentality of a coloniser cannot be more on display.
See how that imperial violence resembles what the U.S. has done to Gaza. But also remember that there are those who firmly stand in solidarity with Palestine and Cuba, no matter the U.S. threats.
This is what I cover in my video: what we’re seeing, what’s not surprising here, and who the helpers are (and how to be one ❤️).
For further context, please watch an excellent interview with Ed Augustin, an independent journalist based in Cuba, here.
To support my work, please consider inviting me for a coffee or contributing to covering my hosting fees for 2026. This year, which feels decades-long already, I promise unwavering independent anticolonial and antifascist commentary, which is still produced solely by me.
As always, stay strong, check on others, and keep your heart open.
❤️💔❤️
