🇨🇺 “Cubans are very clear that if they (the US) dare to carry out those threats, the same thing will happen to them as in Playa Girón (Bay of Pigs).” The people of Cuba are preparing for a possible intervention or invasion by the United States, as US President Donald Trump has threatened to take control of the Caribbean nation. Cubans, under the leadership of Fidel Castro, famously defeated a US invasion in 1961. Today, the Cuban Revolution is facing the most extreme conditions of the US blockade, but it is also experiencing a growing wave of internationalism and support from different social movements from around the world. The people say they are far more prepared to defend themselves now than they were during their historic victory in 1961.

🇮🇪🍀This St. Patrick’s day, we remember Irish revolutionary Bobby Sands. Listen to the words of his fellow hunger striker Pat Sheehan. A member of the Provisional IRA, Sands died while on hunger strike, asserting that he was a political prisoner fighting in the struggle for the liberation of the North of Ireland from the shackles of British colonialism. Sheehan compares Sands to Ernesto “Che” Guevara in his fight for liberation from imperial forces.

🇻🇪Where and when did the Bolivarian Revolution begin? For many, it was on February 27, 1989 in Guarenas, Venezuela. The uprising in Guarenas against transportation fee hikes spread across Caracas and became known as the Caracazo, one of the first uprisings against neoliberalism in Latin America. The uprising was violently repressed, but served as the spark for the Bolivarian Revolution led by Commander Hugo Chávez Frias.
