Join our hosts, Camila Orocio and Rocio Amador, as we take you back to the Cuban Revolution’s key moments. We’ll break down his bold reforms, including land redistribution, free education, and healthcare, that won over many Cubans—but also why these reforms came with a hefty price.

We'll also discuss Castro’s darker side: the abolition of political parties, the imprisonment of dissenters like Huber Matos, and the rise of propaganda and surveillance through neighborhood committees.

This episode is perfect for IB History students prepping for their exams—or anyone curious about how one man’s vision reshaped a nation and defied a superpower. Tune in, take notes, and prepare to ace your next essay on Castro's rise and consolidation of power!
