Located on Brescia Avenue is a microcosmic dwelling that represents all that is Cuba, past and present. Casa Bacardi, a new interactive cultural center highlighting Cuban history and culture, opened in May of this year as part of the Institute for Cuban and Cuban-American Studies [ICCAS]. According to organizers, the Bacardi Family Foundation donated $1 million to promote and update the building. "This is a resource for students to learn about the culture and history of Cuba," said Jaime Suchlicki, director of the Institute of Cuba and Cuban American Studies. "It also serves as an interactive cultural center that educates students and the public about Cuba in a post-Castro era." "We wanted the grand opening of the institute to coincide with the centennial anniversary of Cuban independence," said Maria Urizar, administrative assistant of Casa Bacardi. "We want people of Cuban descent who were born here and those who were born in Cuba to learn about their heritage."

July 11, 2003 Cuban History: January 1959 May be the Only Fixed Point El Tecolote In those first days of 1959, as the rebel army marched through the country, a kind of euphoria was felt throughout Cuba, liberated from a dictatorship by the guerrillas. The bearded rebel soldiers were received as heroes, embraced and applauded wherever they traveled. But from there, the narratives run in divergent directions, divided by the political rift that also divides the Cuban people. In these books, the Cuban Revolution is linked with the longstanding struggle of islanders against outside dominance and influence, and also with dignity and social justice. The exiles, in turn, have produced their own works of popular history, released by some of the largest publishers in Spanish. The thesis that runs through these books is of a revolution that has been corrupted, sabotaged or even poisoned by an authoritarian government.

Cuban Revolution Reader: A Documentary History of 40 Key Moments of the Cuban Revolution By Julio García Luis (Ed.) The Cuban Revolution was one of the defining moments of the 20th century, reaching far beyond the shores of the tiny Caribbean island. This new Reader documents the past four decades of Cuban history and its tumultuous revolution. It presents a comprehensive overview of key events in Cuba, the revolution’s impact in Latin America, Central America and Africa, and relations with the United States. Introductory notes present the background and context of each document, article and speech. Editor Julio García Luis introduces his selection with a reflective essay: ‘Cuba: Relic of the Cold War or herald of the new millennium?’ This Reader focuses on 40 decisive moments, including the Bay of Pigs, the Missile Crisis, Fidel Castro at the United Nations, the Pope’s visit, Cuba’s relations with the Soviet Union and the 1990s economic crisis. Many of these materials are published in English for the first time, making this Reader an outstanding resource for both scholars and general readers. Julio García Luis is one of Cuba’s most prominent writers and historians. Formerly president of the Cuban Journalists Union, he is currently Dean of the School of Social Communications at the University of Havana.

Links Go Key Resource Cuba Topic Brief Cultural History Yoruba Arará Abakuá Kongo U ntil the last decades of the 18th Century, Cuba was a relatively underdeveloped island with an economy based mainly on cattle raising and tobacco farms. The intensive cultivation of sugar that began at the turn of the nineteenth century transformed Cuba into a plantation society, and the demand for African "slaves", who had been introduced into Cuba from Spain at the beginning of the 16th century, increased dramatically. The slave trade with the West African coast exploded, and it is estimated that almost 400,000 Africans were brought to Cuba during the years 1835-1864. [That's roughly 1150 per month for 29 years!] In 1841, African slaves made up over 40% of the total population. The late flourishing of the Cuban sugar industry and the persistence of the slave trade into the 1860s are two important reasons for the remarkable density and variety of African cultural elements in Cuba. Fernando Ortiz Counted the presence of over one hundred different African ethnic groups in 19th century Cuba, and estimated that by the end of that century fourteen distinct "nations" had preserved their identity in the mutual aid associations and social clubs known as cabildos

Sitemap Search The Chairman Whole site More Options Help Contact Services: Enquiries Cuban Posters With a small rebel army, Fidel Castro seizes power in Cuba by the end of 1958. Although he tries to take an independent line, he must deal with significant Russian influence on the new regime. The socialist realist posters from the early years attest to this influence. Around 1965, in a period of strained relations with the Soviet Union, the Cubans decide to develop styles more suitable to their own circumstances. A period of artistic freedom follows. The arts flourish, and there are lively international contacts. Talented Cuban artists start designing colourful, inventive posters of traditional subjects such as commemorations of the revolution or calls for more production. The Cuban leaders are portayed as cheerful and unconventional. Especially striking are the splendid posters issued by cultural organizations such as the ICAIC, the Cuban film institute. OSPAAAL, the organization for solidarity with the people of Africa, Asia, and Latin America, distributes its posters worldwide. Che Guevara's portrait is transformed into an international symbol for romantic rebellion. In the 1970s the liveliness becomes less marked. Artistic freedom is subordinated to the spreading of the proper revolutionary morality. Ties with the Soviet Union are tightened in the same period. A unique chapter in the history of the political poster comes to an end.

Among the many repugnant incidents perpetrated during this war were: The execution on 27 November 1871 of eight medical students for allegedly scratching the tombstone of a Spanish newspaper man.

The records are a sample of dozens of internal reports, memorandum and communications obtained by Piero Gleijeses, a historian at the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies, for his new book, Conflicting Missions: Havana, Washington, and Africa, 1959-1976 (The University of North Carolina Press) Peter Kornbluh, director of the Archive’s Cuba Documentation Project, called the publication of the documents “a significant step toward a fuller understanding Cuba’s place in the history of Africa and the Cold War,” and commended the Castro government’s decision to makes its long-secret archives accessible to scholars like Professor Gleijeses. “Cuba has been an important actor on the stage of foreign affairs,” he said. “Cuban documents are a missing link in fostering an understanding of numerous international episodes of the past.”

History European Discovery: 1492 On October 27th, 1492, Christopher Columbus landed on Cuba, called Cubanacán by the natives who lived there. He found about 50,000 of them—the Ciboney and Guanahatabey in the west and the Taíno elsewhere. Thinking he had reached India, Columbus dubbed these natives "Indians," renamed the island Juana in honor of Prince Juan of Portugal, and, leaving the island undisturbed, sailed on to Hispaniola (present-day Haiti and Dominican Republic), where he founded the first Spanish settlement in the New World. The Colonial Period: 1511-1895 encomienda was established whereby each conquistador was granted a set number of Indians who had to pay tribute to the encomendero (grantee), while the grantee was responsible for the Indians' welfare and Christianization.
