Castro and the Cuban Revolution
Description
This program tracks the Cuban Revolution from its roots in the dictatorship of Batista, the guerilla war under the leadership of Castro and Che Guevara, their triumph-and then the switch in economic policy which turned the U.S. into an enemy. The program follows the subsequent changes in policy which turned a "good" revolution into a totalitarian one, and Cuba from a client state of the United States into a client of the Soviet Union, which resulted in the missile confrontation with the U.S. in 1962 and the Bay of Pigs, and left Cuba-unable to export sugar to the U.S.-to export revolution around the world.
