US suffocates Cuba for unwavering, victorious anti-imperialism at great cost
from Pushback with Aaron Mate · host Pushback with Aaron Maté
Cuba's anti-imperial foreign policy helped end apartheid in South Africa and sustain liberation movements worldwide. Historian Piero Gleijeses says that's one of the main reasons why the US has terrorized the island nation through today. "There are very few examples [in history] of the idealism demonstrated by the Cuban government in its foreign policy in Africa," Gleijeses says. Guest: Piero Gleijeses.
