Last month, through our Cuba Program Director, Felipe Preciado, we had the honor of participating in the 7th Edition of the Political Training School for Social Movements, organized by the Martin Luther King Memorial Center. The school is part of the training program of ALBA Movements and the International Assembly of Peoples. In this edition, the central theme was: “The dispute over revolutionary and decolonizing subjectivity: the role of popular movements.” This discussion takes place in the context of the advance of fascism throughout our America, where “we are debating how contemporary imperialism is showing new faces in its extremist phase, developing a multidimensional offensive to rebuild its dominance” (CMLK, 2025). Listen to some of Felipe's reflections and those of other participants on what they have learned at the School of Political Training for Social Movements. Thank you for letting us be part of this moment of political education. Photos and video: CMLK Media Team

WFP delegates reflect on their trip to Cuba focused on art, healthcare, senior living, and agroecology. The report back is focused on the triumph of the Revolution and how Cubans have spent over six decades building a socialist society. Delegates also discuss the effects of recent changes in US-Cuba relations including the longstanding ilegal U.S. Blockade on Cuba.

Some delegates reflect on their experience in Cuba, the lessons learned from their visit to the island and the urgency of ending the US blockade against the Cuban people.
