BOOK LAUNCH | On Cuba: Reflections on 70 Years of Revolution and Struggle

Join us for a book launch for On Cuba: Reflections on 70 Years of Revolution and Struggle with Vijay Prashad, who co-authored the book with Noam Chomsky.An audacious revolutionary experiment in the backyard of empire, Cuba has occupied a vexed role in the international order for decades. Though its doctors (and fighters)—and the outsized influence of its example—have traversed the globe, from Venezuela to Angola, its political and economic future remain uncertain as the Castro era comes to a close and the U.S. embargo proceeds unabated. Through an intimate conversation between two of the country’s most astute observers of international politics, Noam Chomsky and Vijay Prashad, On Cuba traces Cuban history from the early days of the 1950s revolution to the present, interrogating U.S. interventions and extracting lessons on U.S. power and influence in the Western Hemisphere along the way.This event will be hybrid. Those participating in person can find masks at the front desk. Those tuning in online can do so on our YouTube page.
