Modern History Sourcebook: United Nations: Cuban Missile Crisis Debate, 1962
Transcript of the famous debate between U.S. ambassador to the United Nations Adlai E. Stevenson and Soviet representative Valerian A. Zorin in the U.N. Security Council.
http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/mod/1962-cuba-un1.html

Extractions: United Nations: Cuban Missile Crisis Debate, 1962 Between Adlai Stevenson and V. A. Zorin in the United Nations Security Council, October 23, 1962 Mr. STEVENSON (United States of America): I have asked for an emergency meeting of the Security Council to bring to your attention a grave threat to the Western Hemisphere and to the peace of the world. Last night, the President of the United States reported the recent alarming military developments in Cuba. . . . In view of this transformation of Cuba into a base for offensive weapons of sudden mass destruction, the President announced the initiation of a strict quarantine on all offensive military weapons under shipment to Cuba. He did so because, in the view of my Government, the recent developments in Cuba - the importation of the cold war into the heart of the Americas - constitute a threat to the peace of this hemisphere, and, indeed, to the peace of the world. The time has come for this Council to decide whether to make a serious attempt to bring peace to the world-or to let the United Nations stand idly by while the vast plan of piecemeal aggression unfolds, conducted in the hope that no single issue will seem consequential enough to mobilize the resistance of the free peoples. For my own Government, this question is not in doubt. We remain committed to the principles of the United Nations, and we intend to defend them. . . .

Gallery Of Cuban Poster Art
Features a collection of OSPAAAL posters.
http://www.sims.berkeley.edu/~lcush/CPP.htm

Extractions: Produced with unprecedented access to Cuban national archives, this book assembles nearly 150 of these powerful but little-seen works of popular art. From the 1960s through the 1980s, the posters rallied the Cuban people to the huge task of building a new society, promoted massive sugar harvests and national literacy campaigns; opposed the U.S. war in Vietnam; and celebrated films, music, dance, and baseball with a unique graphic wit and exuberant colorful style. Includes an introduction illuminating the rich social and artistic history of the posters and biographical information on the artists themselves. "Does for the golden age of Cuban poster art what Ry Cooder and Wim Wenders' Buena Vista Social Club did for the country's aged and neglected musicians."

Perspectives Of The Cuban Revolution
A Marxist analysis of the cuban Revolution, written by Albert Weisbord.
http://www.weisbord.org/CubanRev.htm

Extractions: (From the magazine La Parola del Popolo , January 1962) IN MY ARTICLE "What's Going on in Cuba?" written almost two years ago and printed serially in 1960 in La Parola del Popolo, I pointed out that the doctrine of permanent revolution would apply to Cuba in the sense that the workers and peasants, once tasting power and understanding what it means to work for their own benefit, could not and would not willingly be prevented from taking full control especially since there was no force in Cuba capable of stopping the revolution from steadily moving forward. The July 26th Party Jacobin type leadership would have to give way to a more proletarian type, even though this would entail a split within that party and perhaps a fusion with elements within the Communist Party of Cuba. Much of what I wrote then as viable has indeed become realized. Cuba is now in a new stage of development. Thanks to the horrendous policies and actions of the United States Government, Cuba has moved directly into the Soviet orbit. She has broken entirely with the U.S.A. economically and politically and, indeed, directly inspires an anti-U.S. movement in all of Latin America. She has announced as her goal the creation of a proletarian State trying to build up a truly socialist society. The Party of July 26th has now fused with the Communist Party. What are the economic and political perspectives entrained in this new and higher stage of the Cuban Revolution? This is the important question to which the present article is devoted.
CNN - Castro Demands U.S. Return Cuban Refugee Boy - December 5, 1999
http://www.cnn.com/1999/WORLD/americas/12/05/cuba.us.boy/index.html

Extractions: Web posted at: 5:11 a.m. EST (1011 GMT) HAVANA Cuban President Fidel Castro on Sunday demanded the United States return a 5-year-old Cuban boy, rescued from waters off Florida on Thanksgiving, to his father within three days. Elian Gonzalez has been at the center of an emotion-charged custody dispute between the two political enemies after he survived an attempt by several Cuban refugees to sail to Florida last week. Ten Cubans, including the boy's mother, drowned when the boat sank: Elian was found clinging to an inner tube off Fort Lauderdale. Castro compared the case to a kidnapping. He said U.S. authorities should return the boy within 72 hours "Because if not, there are going to be millions of people in the street demanding the freedom of the boy, who will not stop until they send him back," he told Cuban state television early Sunday.
