ELA CALVO Y LA ORQUESTA ARAGON | CUBA, QUE LINDA ES CUBA

Oye, tú que dices que tu patria no es tan linda
Oye, tú que dices que lo tuyo no es tan bello
yo te invito a que busques por el mundo,
otro cielo tan azul como tu cielo.
Una luna tan brillante como aquella,
que se infiltra en la dulzura de la caña
Un Fidel que vibra en la montaña.
Un rubí cinco franjas y una estrella

Cuba que linda es cuba
quien la defiende la quiere más

Quien te defiende mi cuba bella
ahora sin yanquis te quiero más

Cuba que linda es cuba
quien la defiende la quiere más

Qué linda es cuba!
Ahora el guajiro vive contento, vive feliz en comunidad

Cuba que linda es cuba
quien la defiende la quiere más

Qué linda es cuba!
Cuba que linda es cuba
ahora sin yanquis te quiero más

Qué linda es cuba!
Un fidel que vibra en la montaña
un rubí, cinco franjas y una estrella

comandante de mi corazon

Hugo Chavez habla en la Universidad de La Habana en 1994, con una presentacion publica de su proyecto bolivariano.

Hugo Chavez speaks at the University of Havana in 1994, with a public presentation of his Bolivarian project and his goals for Venezuela and Latin America.

If you speak Spanish and have any interest in the Bolivarian Revolution, this is an excellent articulation by Chavez of his strategy and vision, and can help contextualize some of the decisions and policies of the Venezuela’s revolutionary government. Keep in mind that this is over 10 years before he openly declared himself to be a socialist, but it’s rather incredible to see how closely the Bolivarian Revolution has followed the path he lays out here, and it shows a remarkable dedication—over a very tumultuous 18 years—to the original principles of the project.

Unpopular Opinion #1

Fidel is way cooler than Che. Better politician, better speaker, better beard, better hat. Che may be a romantic revolutionary who we like to put on t-shirts and pretend could do no wrong (something which, by the way, I am totally fine with!), but he never had to make the difficult choices that Fidel did and, as a result, has never incurred the wrath of judgmental liberals.

So yes: Fidel > Che. Let’s not lionize our fallen heroes only to forget about our living ones.
