Cuban revolution in America : Havana and the making of a United States Left, 1968-1992 / Havana and the making of a United States Left, 1968-1992 Teishan A.

Includes bibliographies and index.
Cuban revolution in America -- Venceremos means "we will win": the Venceremos Brigades, Cuba, and the U.S. Left -- Missiles, in human form: Cuba and the specter of foreign subversion in America -- Revolution in the air: hijacking, political protest, and U.S.-Cuba relations -- Joven Cuba inside the colossus: the Antonio Maceo Brigade and the making of a Cuban American Left -- Assata is welcome here: black radicalism, political asylum, and U.S.-Cuba diplomacy -- Unfinished revolutions.
When a popular revolution prevailed on America's doorstep in 1959, it provoked the wrath of the American political establishment but fueled intense interest within the multiracial American Left. In this groundbreaking work, Teishan Latner contends that as Americans studied Cuba's achievements, Havana in turn looked to the US Left as a collaborator in the global battle against inequality and imperialism.
