‘We are a very resilient people’: in the face of #Trump’s threats, Cuban cinema comes out fighting

In the shadow of an imperial hegemon and with severe restrictions on its ability to trade and access resources, #Cuba may appear as an enigma to audiences curious about the type of #cinema that has emerged from such conditions.
The #CubanRevolution of 1959 caused a radical break in the development of the country’s cinema. #Film-making existed before “this moment of effervescence” but was historically an imitation of Hollywood-style film-making, according to Jessica Gordon-Burroughs, a lecturer in Latin American studies at the University of Edinburgh. In contrast, the first decade after the revolution heralded “a very exciting and innovative time, both politically and aesthetically in Cuba”.

SAN FRANCISCO – The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) today filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) seeking records about a multi-state program that is using AI to evaluate requests for medical care.
TONIGHT: Senator Murphy is expected to force a vote on War Powers Resolutions aimed at stopping Trump’s illegal war with Iran.
The American public is firmly against this conflict. None of us want another forever war. Make sure your senators hear from you: https://act.indivisible.org/sign/no-iran-war/?source=mastodon
Trump's unauthorized war in Iran has already taken the lives of US servicemembers and at least 1,000 Iranian civilians. It has devolved into a larger regional conflict, with missile and drone strikes, military operations, and retaliatory attacks now wounding and killing civilians in countries across the Middle East. The American public is firmly against this conflict. None of us want another forever war. Congress must act. We’re calling on Members of Congress to respond to this crisis by: Conducting immediate oversight Continuing to force votes on War Powers Resolutions Restricting or cutting off funding for unauthorized hostilities, which includes opposing any supplemental packages that would fund the war Holding the Trump administration accountable and putting an immediate stop to this war. Publicly opposing the war Republicans need to understand that we will not accept their rubber stamping endless wars, and any Democrats who are falling short need to understand that we will hold them accountable.
Demand that your senators do not accept any deal that gives ICE and Border Patrol more money to terrorize our communities, or fails to implement serious reforms: https://indivisible.org/actions/dem-senate-not-a-penny-more-ice-bp/?source=mastodon
And then call your representative: https://indivisible.org/actions/dem-house-not-a-penny-more-ice-bp/?source=mastodon
Reports are circulating that Democrats are open to considering a deal being floated by Trump, it's time to remind them that our demands have not changed: The only way ICE and Border Patrol get so much as a single penny more will be if Democrats fail to lead.
As the Trump administration sows chaos with a crushing fuel blockade of Cuba,
a general told Congress that the military will
“set up a camp” at Guantánamo Bay
to detain those who try to flee the humanitarian crisis inflicted by the United States.
« … we have the same duties to defend Cuba as we do to defend Palestine… »
