The Lawrence Herbert School Of Communication, Department of Economics and the Hofstra Cultural Center presents:
¡Basta ya! Why the U.S. Blockade Against Cuba Must End
In this roundtable discussion, we will hear back from the Hofstra students and faculty members who participated in the Hofstra Study Abroad Program to Havana in January 2025. We will explore the long history of the U.S. strategy of regime change in Cuba since the triumph of the revolution in 1959, and provide a systematic overview of the economic, political, and information stranglehold that both Republican and Democratic administrations have applied to Cuba, resulting in an ever-expanding crisis for the people on the island.
With the participation of several student members of the Hofstra in Cuba trip, alongside Hofstra University professors Mario A. Murillo, vice dean of the Lawrence Herbert School of Communication, and Dr. Conrad Herold, professor of Economics.
Organized by the Center for Civic Engagement, as part of Global Justice Day, in collaboration with the Latin American and Caribbean Studies Program
Location: Guthart Cultural Center Theater, Joan and Donald E. Axinn Library, First Floor, South Campus
This event is FREE and open to the public. Advance registration is required.
