If kids can't learn enough in 8 hours of staring into space in a "traditional" (aka worthless) learning environment, such that they need to do all their learning at home at the end of the day, MAYBE you should ❓ whether the whole model has it backwards. But no get the pitchforks & tiki torches!

New York City has a new mayor — Zohran Mamdani — and everyone 's talking about it. But how do people thousands of miles away in Cuba see this political moment? We asked Cubans what they know about the election and how U.S. politics echo across the Caribbean. #cuba #cubanews #zohranmamdani

The U.S. says it’s coordinating the delivery of $3 million in humanitarian aid through the Catholic Church to Cubans impacted by Hurricane Melissa. While it will help people in Eastern Cuba get back on their feet, recovery efforts are significantly hindered by U.S. sanctions.

Francisco Pichón, the UN coordinator in Cuba, said after Hurricane Melissa that U.S. sanctions “exclude Cuba from international financial institutions,” which makes financing the disaster response “extremely difficult.” Read the full article: www.bellyofthebeastcuba.com/news/us-offe...

Ukraine’s Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha announced on Oct. 29 that his country had decided to close its embassy in Havana and “downgrade our diplomatic ties,” just hours after its vote against Cuba’s UN resolution to condemn the U.S. embargo.

This marks a huge shift, which cuts against decades of solidarity between the two countries. Thousands of Ukrainian children affected by the 1986 Chernobyl explosion received free treatment in Cuba.

The program “Children of Chernobyl” began in 1990 and survived Ukrainian independence. By 2011, more than 20,000 Chernobyl kids – and their children – had received treatment in Cuba. Read the full article:

The UN announced its plan to support the Cuban government's recovery efforts following Hurricane Melissa, pledging $74 million to aid recovery efforts focused on water, sanitation, shelter, education and health. $11 million has already been released.

OCHA, the UN relief coordination office, said Tuesday that the scale of damage after Melissa is much higher than initially estimated: 90,000 homes and over 600 health facilities have been affected by the storm, and more than 54,000 people in Cuba are still displaced.

Nine-year-old girls throughout Cuba have started receiving HPV vaccinations to prevent cervical cancer.

More than 140 countries include HPV vaccinations in their national immunization programs. Most vaccines administered in Cuba are locally produced. The HPV vaccine being used in Cuba is Chinese.

Cuba’s national vaccination program begins at birth and is completely free and universal. The pilot HPV vaccination campaign targets more than 68,000 girls in Cuba, with the aim of aligning with PAHO and the WHO’s goal of vaccinating 90 percent of girls by 2030.

Are you ready for the next Belly of the Beast documentary? This time we follow seven young African medical students studying at Cuba’s ELAM—skipping vacation to serve in Guinea-Bissau. Stay tuned — something beautiful is coming.

Hurricane Melissa left a trail of destruction in eastern Cuba. But it also unleashed a wave of solidarity across the island. Cubans are donating to help those in need. This video was made in collaboration with the production company Caminos at the Martin Luther King Memorial Center in Havana.

Dr. Luther Castillo, the Honduran Minister of Science, Technology, and Innovation who graduated from Cuba’s Latin American School of Medicine, Cuba’s universal, free healthcare system is precious says: nobody swipes your credit card if you need heart surgery.
