Über diesen Titel

Today for KPFA’s Women’s Magazine we are going to spend the hour talking about Cuba and the attacks on Cuba by the Trump administration whose blockage of Cuba is devastating Cuba’s economy. And we will look at how some leftists are responding to that newest war on Cuba. We will be joined by Steph Hoguin who was on the recent Nuestra America convoy to Cuba that brought humanitarian aid to Cuba. And we will also look at some of the amazing political work that cuban’s have been doing to expand human rights in Cuba. Kim Anno and Jennifer Rodgeguiz Montesino will join us to talk about their new documentary “Quba”that will be showing locally which explores the new very progressive family code that was passed in Cuba in 2022 that includes protections for women, children, the elderly and the LGBTQIA community including legalizing same sex marriage and adoption rights. Steph Holguin is a Black, queer, & trans community organizer, educator, and researcher based in Atlanta, Georgia. They organize locally and nationally with the Black Alliance for Peace and a Diasporic Dominican organization, Compas de la Diaspora/Comrades of the Diaspora. Steph recently returned from a delegation to Cuba in March with the Nuestras Americas Cuba Convoy which went to bring humanitarian aid and to show support for Cuba against the US current attacks on Cuba which is devastating the Island. They represented the Black Alliance for Peace, Haiti/Americas Team. Jennifer Rodríguez Montesino is a Cuban Photographer, Director, Producer, Scriptwriter and Translator. And she is joining us from Mexico City where she is getting a master’s degree in Filmmaking, and line producer on the documentary ¡Quba! Kim Anno is an internationally exhibiting/screening painter, filmmaker, and activist who has made a remarkable new documentary on the state of LGBTQ rights on the island, ¡Quba!
