Default Re: Interesting read on misconceptions on Cuba

Here is someone in the news recently whose perspective is probably more accurate.
She is a famous blogger out of Cuba not being permitted to leave to receive a prize in NY for her work against the Communist regime.
She runs ramped throughout Cuba looking for places to log on via use of a thumb drive to post her blog.
They don't allow her to openly do it.

This contrasting viewpoint is one that is more accurate as comes from an eyewitness, unlike the writer of the posted one.
Read up on her work. Quite bold and interesting.

Another recent article on her.

and finally, he blog.

The name of it is "from Cuba", generation y
