U.S. Sanctions on Cuba and the Global South: Cost and Response

Liz Oliva Fernandez, Helen Yaffe, August Nimtz, and Anthony Quezada speak in this session recorded at Socialism 2024. This session was sponsored by Chicago Cuba Coalition. Washington’s designating Cuba a “State Sponsor of Terrorism” prevents nearly all Cuba’s international commerce. Meanwhile U.S. sanctions against Venezuela, Nicaragua, and others arguably hurt working people rather than leaders – and are largely responsible for the current immigration crisis. A look inside the fight for fair and normalized relations with the Global South. The next Socialism Conference will be held in Chicago, July 3-6.
