438 Words2 Pages

About 5,000 migrants from Cuba were stranded in Central America after trying to reach United States. Fortunately, the President of Costa Rica, Luis Guillermo, allowed the immigrants to stay in his country.
According to CNN, it has been a month since the Cubans were left stranded in Central America because Nicaragua and Guatemala didn’t allowed them to cross their countries. They were all staying in a refugee camp provided by the government as well as giving them their foods and drinks in San Ramon.

The 57-year-old state leader released a recorded video message after the Belizean government refused to accept the request of Costa Rica to help the Cubans to get back to their country.
Belize affirmed that they would only help them “within the regional arrangement.” "Like you, I feel very disappointed that Guatemala, as well as Belize have denied passage through their territory to arrive in Mexico and from there continue on to your destination in the United States," Solis said.
However, the president promised everyone that he would do his very best to look for other ways to help the immigrants. The migrants were originally going through U.S. via South and Central American countries.
Now, the Cubans were afraid that the good relation of Cuba and U.S. would be affected and could end the special privilege the foreign country was giving them. Havana Times added that the immigrants will be the number one priority of President Solis as he was going to visit Cuba in the upcoming week, a source told

    In this part in particular, De La Fuente utilizes figures and solid facts to prove his claims, especially with his effective use of census records to show black flight from Cuba due to lack of opportunity (pg. 104). Speaking to social mobility and education, De La Fuente identifies the mediocrity of Cuban and American efforts to create a literate population. Although the government made significant strides to educate the populations, imperialist motivations fueled the system, which lacked secondary systems of support and training for Afro-Cubans. It is essential that De La Fuente identifies lack of labor opportunities and education in Cuba because both Afro-Cubans and white Cubans could eventually find solidarity in combatting these issues. Upon reading this chapter, De La Fuente’s revelation of a cyclical nature in Cuba with revolution and racism is uncovered.

    In an attempt to overthrow Castro and prevent the spread of communism throughout Latin America, Kennedy was forced to implement “a watered down plan inherited from the Eisenhower administration” , which involved using CIA trained Cuban rebels to encourage an anti-Castro uprising which would then appear as an internal uprising. This resulted in what historian Theodore Draper described as a “perfect failure” On April 17th 1961, 1500 rebels landed on the Bahia de Cochinos however invaders were swiftly captured or killed and as Kennedy refused to send in USA troops and cancelled a planned air strike in order to feign lack of American involvement, the plan ended in “total humiliating defeat” . Kennedy was enraged that he had signed what he had seen as an “unworkable plan” and that he had “allowed himself to be swept along by sheer bureaucratic momentum” . Despite this he took full responsibility for the failed operation stating in a news conference on March 21st 1961, that while “victory has a hundred fathers, defeat is an orphan” .
