We're back for Season 2 with an epic two-part episode on Cuba!

You might be asking yourself, "this is ‘Red Star Over Asia’, why is there an episode about Cuba?"

Well, the Cuban Revolution has had a profound impact all over the world. Cuba historically supported anti-colonial colonial movements in Asia, Africa etc. and the Cuban experience offers a lot of lessons for socialists anywhere on the globe.

We invited Rodridgo Huamachi on to discuss how the Chinese and Vietnamese models are influencing debates within the Cuban Communist Party, but our discussion went way beyond that.

Part 1 is a deep dive history of the Cuban Revolution and a breakdown of Cuba’s political and electoral system.

Part II deals with the recent protests in Cuba, as well as contemporary debates within the CCP.

Rodrigo Huamachi is a community activist, member of the Cuban Communist Party, independent researcher, and translator based in Havana.

This is part one of a two part episode.
