Romans, we begin this morning with an extraordinary sight in cuba. Thousands of ordinary cubans taking to the streets demanding more food, medicine and relief in the midst of a pandemic driven economic crash there. White house officials have expressed support. Patrick oppmann has the latest from havana. Thousands of protesters took to the streets here in havana and across cuba on sunday demanding change.

Lesson 12 years before there is irreparable damage done to this country. Steve:
