Another excellent @UpstreamPodcast episode.
The whole series tells the story of the heroic efforts of the Cuban people to build a better world for all of us - why we all need to be in solidarity against the latest wave of US imperialism.

There's malware going around that originates with a DM asking you to vote for the sender in a contest to host a podcast. A bunch of left pals, starting with my wife Liza Featherstone, have gotten hit. It seems targeted to the likes of us—is it a scheme to purge left X?

Sharing this thread again on this incredibly courageous and revolutionary hero that is Raul Castro!
Manolo De Los Santos@manolo_realengo
🧶 🇨🇺 Today Raúl Castro turns 92! At a young age, he committed himself to the struggle for Cuba's independence & for socialism! Throughout his career, western media has often placed him in Fidel's shadow ignoring the important historical role he's played in the Cuban Revolution.

An excellent episode on Cuba’s revolution. Essential listening, especially given the current crisis, by the inimitable Helen Yaffe. open.spotify.com/episode/0kaE7j…

Building socialism in a country ravaged by war and poverty is not an overnight feat. As Lenin observed, it requires an ‘interval of time’ for new social forces to recuperate and grow. The path to the future is a long-distance race, not a sprint.
