Gotta get the police out of my head

A report about Cuba

By: Erik Jennische

In the spring of 2003, 75 Cuban democracy activists were sentenced to long prison sentences. The government’s goal was to instill fear in the population, but ten years after the trials, the movement is stronger than ever. Gorki Aguila plays punk on the balcony, Joani Sánches tweets via SMS, Ricardo Gonzales writes that freedom is a realistic miracle.

“On the carpet in front of the stereo, I realize that the power of the Castro brothers would slowly but surely crack if Cubans were allowed to see and play more punk. And I understand that Gorki Aguila and has realized it.”

Erik Jennische is a journalist. He writes for Axess, Omvärlden and UNT, among others. He has lived in Cuba and followed the Cuban democracy movement since the 1990s.
