My View by Silvio Canto, Jr.

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free." - President Ronald Reagan

My chat about Moncada 1953 with Jorge Ponce

Image result for moncada 1953 images
A few years ago, we discussed Moncada 1953 with Jorge Ponce, Cuban American writer and contributor to Babalu Blog.  

Jorge and I came to the US in the 1960's with our parents.  

You can hear the show here.
