SOS Cuba: DeLand Florida rally shows solidarity with protesters

DELAND Iranis De La Torre remembers the hunger she felt at 5 years old when she and her family fled Cuba during the Mariel boatlift in 1980. It s a feeling she can t help but reflect on as an unprecedented number of people in Cuba have taken to the streets in protest of the oppressive government amid shortages of food, medical supplies and other basic necessities. They’re saying Cubans are so hungry that they ate their fear and now they’re fearless, De La Torre said. The 46-year-old was one of more than two dozen people who came out at 5 p.m. Wednesday to Chicas Cuban Cafe, 215 S. Woodland Blvd., in a show of solidarity with those suffering back on the island.

Patria Y Vida and Libertad become anthems of Florida, Cuba protests

View Comments If you listen closely to protesters in Cuba and Florida, you can hear people chanting patria y vida, translating to homeland and life. The chants reclaim a popular slogan from the Cuban revolution, homeland or death.  Protests in Cuba have been ongoing for years but reemerged last week when thousands of Cubans marched to protest food and medicine shortages, power outages and some even calling for political change.  But where did the slogan patria y vida come from? Cuban reggaetón musicians Alexander Delgado and Randy Malcom of the duo Gente De Zona; Yotuel Romero, member of the Cuban band Orishas; and singer-songwriter Descemer Bueno.

How Patria y Vida became the anthem of Cuban anti-government protests

Now, the familiar saying has been repurposed for the protest anthem “Patria y Vida,” or “homeland and life,” a subversive song by some of Cuba’s most popular musicians that rails against social repression and a severe economic crisis in their home country. “Now let us not shout ‘homeland and death’ but rather ‘homeland and life, ” sing artists Yotuel, Descemer Bueno and reggaeton duo Gente de Zona, among others. “May no more blood flow for desiring to think differently. Who told you that Cuba is yours if Cuba belongs to all my people?”
