Fidel Castro's centenary and the victims of his legacy

As the centennial of Fidel Castro's birth approaches, various political, academic, and ideological sectors across Latin America, including groups in the Dominican Republic, are organizing tributes, colloquiums, and public ceremonies to commemorate the event. These planned activities aim to honor the legacy of the former Cuban leader through formal recognition and public exaltation.

Simultaneously, the preparations have drawn attention to the perspectives of the Cuban diaspora. The discourse surrounding the centennial highlights a divide between those organizing commemorative events and those focused on the impact of Castro's governance on victims of his legacy.
