Join the Institute for Policy Studies for a screening and conversation with independent media outlet Belly of the Beast’s award-winning Cuban journalist, Liz Oliva Fernández. Liz is on a national tour of the U.S. and Puerto Rico this Fall to present two new documentaries that expose what’s driving U.S. policy toward Cuba under the Biden Administration, filmed in New Jersey and Washington D.C. this year. These are the first films in which a Black Cuban journalist confronts mostly white Cuban-American politicians and leaders about U.S. policies that disproportionately impact Black Cubans on the island. This event provides an opportunity for audiences to learn more about the forces shaping the United States’ ongoing economic war against Cuba, as well as to engage in dialogue with Liz about her experience reporting in both the U.S. and Cuba.
