Enrique Ruano/ Primera Parte/ Cómo Ayudamos A Los Alzados Contra Castro Y Terminé En Prisión

“While thousands of militiamen roamed Cuba searching for dissidents, Enrique Ruano hid rebels in his own home, transported weapons for the resistance, and participated in a clandestine network that would eventually land him in prison.” In this interview, Enrique Ruano recounts one of the most complex and dangerous periods in Cuban history following the triumph of the Revolution. Ruano tells how, seeing the direction the new government was taking, his family began to collaborate with the anti-Castro insurgency. His father did not sympathize with the nascent dictatorship, and they soon became involved in clandestine activities to support those who decided to take up arms. During the conversation, he describes how they hid rebels in their own home, transported food and weapons, obtained resources for the resistance, and helped men who had to confront thousands of militiamen mobilized by the regime. He also shares previously untold anecdotes about the conspiracy, the aid he provided to persecuted fighters, the climate of fear during those years, and the circumstances that ultimately led to his imprisonment. A firsthand account of the armed resistance against the Cuban revolutionary government and the reality experienced by those who participated in it. #Cuba #HistoryOfCuba #EnriqueRuano #CubanRevolution #AntiCastro #PoliticalPrisoners #Testimony #Castroism #History #Interview
