New World Coming: Race in Cuba: Everything Within The Revolution

James Counts Early is joined by Esteban Morales Domínguez, economist, social scientist, militant participant of the 1959 Cuban Revolution, and pioneering scholar on the question of race and racism in Cuba. In this conversation, they discuss the strategies for confronting and beginning to resolve racism and discrimination in Cuban society, how the Cuban government has worked to put in place the conditions for ideological and social change, and what our solidarity task is as organizers within the United States.
