Manage episode 429671643 series 2820629
In this episode of Guerrilla History, we are lucky to be joined by a special guest in Cuba as well as a special guest host whom many of you will likely remember from past episodes of the show. Here, we bring on Cuban journalist Liz Oliva Fernández from Belly of the Beast to discuss Bob Menendez (who was just convicted on corruption charges), US-Cuba policy, and how these are related. This episode is being based off of two documentaries that Liz hosted for Belly of the Beast - Hardliner of the Hudson which takes a deep look at Menendez, and Uphill on the Hill which is an examination of recent US-Cuba policy. Watch these, and subscribe to Belly of the Beast on YouTube!
Adnan was not able to join Henry for this one, so we drafted in our friend and former guest Taylor Genovese as a special guest host. Taylor is an Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Dutchess Community College, an editor at Iskra Books, and a documentary filmmaker. You may remember Taylor as a guest from two previous episodes - Peasants' Revolt of 1381 and Art and the Working Class. Major thanks to Taylor for coming in on relatively short notice for this one!
Liz Oliva Fernández is a Cuban journalist and the presenter of The War on Cuba, for which she won a Gracie Award. Apart from her journalism and filmmaking, Liz is a dedicated anti-racist and feminist activist. Follow Belly of the Beast on Twitter @bellybeastcuba to keep up with Liz's work.
