It was a year ago today 7/11 that Cubans took to the streets to peacefully protest against the Communist government's repression.

The U.S. State Department has just imposed visa restrictions against 28 Cuban officials that it said were implicated in a crackdown on largely peaceful protests in Cuba one year ago.

Thousands of people in Cuba took part in an unprecedented protest, calling for the end of dictatorship as they shouted “Patria y Vida” and “Libertad.”

I was brought up and taught to treat everyone the same way they treat me, therefore I dedicate my entry to this special date in history.

An explosion at a popular Havana hotel has killed several Cubans and reportedly injured dozens more from a massive gas leak.

Kudos to Minnie Miñoso, a pioneer Cuban in the Negro League. He played seasons with the Cleveland Indians and Chicago White Sox.

The Cuban people have been oppressed for six decades by the totalitarian Castro regime and will say Basta and Libertad.

Fidel Castro died five years ago this week, but his menacing shadow and his legacy of oppressing the Cuban people continues.

Those national planned mass protest is demanding their freedom and an end to the communist dictatorship in the Caribbean island.

To follow the developments and do your part to support them and help spread the word to the world. #15NCuba #SOSCuba #15N

I’m the unicorn journalist with wings and a cyclops eye. I have been affected by multiple news stories, starting with Fidel Castro’s Cuban Communist Revolution in the ’60s, when I became a political refugee after coming to America.  

I met Gustavo Godoy when he was anchoring Noticiero SIN with Teresa Abate in Miami when I had been hired as executive producer.

Gus and Tere were a likable and extremely capable Cuban anchor team, but as TV demographics continued to evolve, they made room for Maria Elena Salinas and Jorge Ramos, younger Mexican news anchors that ultimately catapulted Univision into a television news powerhouse.
