Actually Existing Socialism

Cuba's Socialist Democracy vs. America's Capitalist "Democracy" w/ Calla Walsh


Listen Later

Calla Walsh, anti-imperialist writer and organizer, joins the show to discuss her article published in Multipolarista titled "Abortion in Cuba vs US shows which country is truly democratic".   We cover her organizing experiences and her recent visit to Cuba as a member of a her local Cuba solidarity group. In our in-depth discussion we compare the reality of Cuba's thriving socialist democracy to that of the illusory capitalist democracy of the United States through examining protections and status of abortion rights in the two countries.  Calla can be found on twitter: @CallaWalsh   To learn more about the National Network on Cuba check out: nnoc.info   The article and more information regarding our discussion can be found on the patreon posting of this episode: https://www.patreon.com/posts/69206196/
