Caribbean Cuba: Past, Present and Future
Professors Caballero and Green
Cuba is an idyllic, sun-drenched Caribbean island with beautiful beaches and warm, friendly people. Yet, after visualizing Cuba solely in terms of Fidel Castro and the Cuban revolution for the past 50 years, the United States is currently opening itself to Cuba. Now is the perfect time to experience the “real” Cuba, exploring Cuba’s Past, its Present, and its Future.
Our 16-day study abroad will take us from the capital of Havana to the blue water beaches of Cayo Las Brujas to French-colonial Cienfuegos, and, finally, to the countryside of Viñales. We will discover Cuba’s Past with activities such as a walking tour of Old Havana and a visit to the Museum of the Revolution; its Present with a session on race and gender in Cuba followed by dinner with Cuban university students; and its Future with a forum on U.S.-Cuba relations.
