Cuba’s revolutionary history dates back to the early 1950’s when the seeds were first planted for the eventual armed overthrow of Fulgencio Batista’s government by Fidel Castro and his revolutionaries on January 1, 1959. Against all odds and despite many attempts to remove him from power, Castro remained as Cuba’s leader until 2008, after nearly 50 years as the nation’s leader.
Our guest on this episode of Your History Your Story is historian, university professor and award-winning author, Dr. Luis Martinez-Fernandez.
Luis, who was born in Cuba, is a professor of history at the University of Central Florida and has an expertise in the areas of Latin America, the Caribbean and Latino - Hispanic politics, culture and society.
Luis will be discussing his book, “Revolutionary Cuba: A History” and will take us through the tumultuous period in Cuban history that includes Castro’s rise to power, his alignment with communism and the Soviet Union and events such as the failed Bay of Pigs invasion and the Cuban Missile Crisis which almost led to a nuclear world war in October 1962.
