El nuevo Secretario de Estado de los Estados Unidos no es cubano; nació en el país norteño 15 años después de que sus padres emigraran de Cuba, en 1956, antes del triunfo de la Revolución. No pueden vanagloriarse de haber "salido huyendo" del comunismo.
Su familia huyó de un capitalismo salvaje, subdesarrollado y neocolonial. Huyeron de la dictadura de Fulgencio Batista que, entre el 10 de marzo de 1952 y el 31 de diciembre de 1958, asesinó y dsapareció a más de 20.000 estudiantes, obreros, campesinos e intelectuales cubanos, en su mayoría jóvenes.

Last night, @uofg Senate, I spoke against the abolition of the BA Major in Spanish/Hispanic Studies. Most Senate resolutions pass w/ 95%+ support; my arguments reduced support for getting rid of Spanish to 50-51%. Plse RT if you support universities having Spanish programs!

Schools in the UNC system will no longer award distinguished professorships to faculty in the humanities.
The UNC Board of Governors says the honors "will now only be given in STEM-related (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) fields."

Can't wait for this presentation by Eunice Rojas:
“Marxist Musicians and Squandered Songs: Anticapitalism in the Dictatorship Era Music of Eduardo Peralta” in the panel, “Displaced and Replaced: Migrants, Marxists, Exiles, and Sex Dolls in Latin American Cultural Production."
I'm excited to be joining Lori Oxford @huitzilin in this panel on displaced migrants, Marxists, exiles, and sex dolls to present "Marxist Musicians and Squandered Songs: Anticapitalism in the Dictatorship Era Music of Eduardo Peralta"
