not seen since before the 1959 Revolution, Cuban Americans are challenging the view that the demonstrations are just about economic frustration.— many of the chants throughout the island called for political change and included expressions such as “libertad” , “We want change” and “Down with the dictatorship.
Many Cuban Americans have grown up hearing calls for “libertad” for Cuba in the streets of Miami and other U.S. cities, but it’s seldom heard in Cuba. Some Cuban Americans said it was emotional to hear the word being shouted by so many on the island. “It doesn’t matter if you’re a Republican or a Democrat. We all recognize what these protests are about,” said Sopo, adding that the chants called for “libertad.”
