Office hours Monday and Wednesday, 3-4pm. Slide2
Raul Castro: “This is a revolution committed to its people” Granma International, January 3, 2013
US Congresswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen: “I am a fierce opponent of the Castro regime in Cuba, the Chavez regime in Venezuela, and other dictatorial regimes in Latin America that subvert the will of the people and seek to erode democratic institutions. Our Hemisphere must not be allowed to follow the insidious example of Castro’s Cuba.”
