Lillian Guerra, presentation at UFAuthors@UF: Lillian Guerra
TODAY @ 3:00 p.m. in the Latin American Collection Reference Room, 4th floor Smathers Library (East)
Lillian Guerra, Department of History, will discuss her book Visions of Power in Cuba: Revolution, Redemption, and Resistance. In the tumultuous first decade of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro and other leaders saturated the media with altruistic images of themselves in a campaign to win the hearts of Cuba’s six million citizens. In Visions of Power in Cuba, Guerra argues that these visual representations explained rapidly occurring events and encouraged radical change and mutual self-sacrifice.
Refreshments will be provided.
