Cubans

My cultural ancestry comes from a Cuban and Mexican decent. I have chosen to write about my Cuban side because I can relate to them more than I could with my Mexican side. I was raised around my Cuban family and would occasionally see my Mexican side due to them living so far away. I have spent a lot more time associating with Cubans and have adapted to more of their habits. Cubans have absolutely no problem sharing their feelings, thoughts, and ideas. They are known for being boisterous and not

Fifteen days to one month, plus there will be a tax. How much is that? Oh, not that much fifty to three hundred dollars. I was happy with this

my favorite parts of traveling is the food. However, with most places having such a heavy American influence, original and good tasting food can be something hard to find. This was not the case in Cuba. Each meal at restaurants (which the average Cuban cannot afford) came with a drink, the house appetizers: black beans, rice, fried plantains, fresh fruit, salads, one entree of your choice and a dessert always served with a hot espresso.

As Castro imposed more communist influenced policies, the relationship between Cuba and the United States began to deteriorate and Castro began a relationship with the Soviet Union. Moreover, in 1960 the U.S placed an embargo on trading with Cuba. All American would be banned from doing business with the Cuban government. In an attempt to create an equal society, the Cuban government nationalized everything. The government

The Cuban Revolution had started in 1953 which had a negative effect on Cuba ever since Castro came into power. Fidel Castro’s intentions were to make Cuba better by overthrowing Fulgencio Batista, a military leader, but didn’t prove so. The Cuban revolution affected Cuba, negatively both politically and economically. Cuba was affected economically, due to the emigration that was occurring with the higher class people, and Cuba also traded goods with the Soviet Union, which the Soviet Union had backed

The Cuban Revolution, as Fidel Castro proclaimed in January 1959, was a true revolution; it had profoundly impacted the very economic, social and political foundations of the nation of Cuba and with that a new society was forged. Being one of the most major political events of the twentieth century, it was a dramatic chapter in the Cold War. Wherein the improbable overthrow of the oppressive U.S-backed dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista by a band of young Communist guerillas and intellectuals otherwise

United States ideologies will be imported into Cuba and how they would ultimately affect the cuban regime. United States Ideologies are very strong in democracy and freedom, an exact opposite of Cuba who still carries a totalitarian communist government. These Ideologies that would be passed down to cuban citizens through word of mouth or their very own eyes will prove to be a challenge to the cuban regime. The people of Cuba could move from a survivalist state to a progressive state and ultimately

Elian Gonzalez’s case changed the United states. At the time many Cubans were coming to the United States and they were allowed to stay because of a policy called the wet foot, dry foot policy which said that if Cubans reached United States soil they would be allowed to stay but if they were found in the water they would be

informed that “Political links with revolutionaries throughout the Caribbean before 1959 influenced Cuba’s subsequent role in the region” (Hernandez, 2010). Although communist the national eye was set on the revolutions that proceeded the Cuban revolution, thus The Cuban ideology transitioned (Hernandez, 2010). We also find that the USSR did not contain the effective alliances in the region as much as the use of militias. Due to the similarities in common with the other island nations, many listed in

Sociology of the University of Michigan, in her research stated that the Cuban migration have been analyzed through the years, with emphasis on how Cubans, as immigrants, incorporate their traditions in American society, in comparison to other immigrant groups in the United States. In addition, she emphasized that Cuban migration waves are a revolution result, not only political and economic, but also cognitive and emotive. Today, the Cuban community in the United States is particularly heterogeneous, with
