New Cuban internet site addresses cultural colonization

 

Havana, Apr 6 (RHC) Casa de las Américas inaugurated the blog Sembrar ideas, a site that will gather texts on the debates around the Cuban program to combat cultural colonization, as reported today by its president Abel Prieto.

On his Twitter account, Prieto indicated that the new space on the Internet arises from the document Sowing ideas, sowing awareness, a Cuban proposal for exchange from the left.

The program was presented during the celebration of the 170th anniversary of the birth of José Martí, based on a call launched by the Cuban historical leader Fidel Castro, to respond with ideas and conscience before the aggressiveness of the United States Government towards the island.

He recalled that at the 6th Congress of the Union of Writers and Artists of Cuba, in 1998, the Commander in Chief dedicated his speech to cultural globalization.

He said that it was "the most important of all issues, the greatest threat to culture, not only ours, but that of the world," and insisted that the country had to defend itself against the "most powerful instrument of domination of imperialism”.

According to the text, in light of this severe warning, the significance of the phrase "culture is the first thing to be saved" was more fully understood, pronounced by Fidel in 1993.

Among other analyses, the website (https://sembrarideas.wordpress.com/) includes the article Decolonization as a Key to Thinking, by the Mexican political scientist Fernando Buen Abad, in which he drew attention to the heritage of Latin American thinkers. (Source: Prensa Latina)
