Cuban Journalist Liz Oliva Fernández: How Biden Embraced Trump's War On Cuba

Rania Khalek and Kevin Gosztola interview Cuban journalist Liz Oliva Fernández about two documentaries that cover United States policy toward Cuba. Liz, who worked with Belly of the Beast on the films, obtained a visa to travel to the U.S. and confront the very politicians, who are behind the embargo and other measures that disproportionately impact Black Cubans. She spent time in Washington, D.C., and New Jersey, where she spoke to a number of everyday Americans about their attitudes toward Cuba. The first film, "Hardliner on the Hudson," premieres on May 13. It covers corrupt Senator Bob Menendez and his instrumental role in shaping the U.S. agenda against Cuba. The second film, "Uphill on the Hill," examines the "political interests" that have led President Joe Biden to "embrace Trump's economic war on Cuba." It premieres on May 20. Both films will be available on the Belly of the Beast's YouTube channel. *SUBSCRIBE for full episodes and early access to episodes at TheDissenter.org **BECOME a Patron at Patreon.com/UnauthorizedDisclosure for full episodes and early access to episodes
