In the Heart of the USA: Opening up Horizons on
Democracy and Elections in Cuba
In the following video, Arnold August, author of Cuba and Its Neighbors: Democracy in Motion, talks with a delegation of 4 students from Emory University and the City University of New York (CUNY) during an October 22, 2013 conference at the two universities. Carol Delgado, Head of the Venezuelan Consulate in New York, joined the group to discuss social and political conditions as they exist today in Cuba and Venezuela, comparing participatory democracy in these countries with representative democracy and the two-party system in the United States.
The New York conference was the beginning of an exciting tour currently being conducted by Arnold August and others through the US Heartland. Tour conferences are planned at the Venezuelan Consulate in Chicago, continuing on through Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin from February 3 to 6 and later in Minnesota from April 14 to 17. The tour brings the truth about Cuba and its neighboring countries into the light of day for people like the students in the video who have been steeped in related false propaganda by the US government/corporate media.

Without a doubt any light you throw on the Americas will stir interest within students who were living with a vacuum of information.
Remember how much we learned as children, ourselves, regarding other countries in this hemisphere. We got NADA, right?
