Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

De Jesús a Fidel: Faith in Revolutionary Cuba traces the resilient spirit of a nation through its faith, from the revolutionary fervor of 1959 to today's hopes for democracy. Exploring the shift from "This is your house, Jesus" plaques to "This is your house, Fidel," this book delves into how Christianity and Santería endured repression, flourished in the margins, and inspired resistance. From the Christian Liberation Movement led by Oswaldo Payá to the "Patria y Vida" protests, faith has fueled Cuba's fight for freedom. Written by Andres Mambuca Jr., a Cuban-American who arrived in the U.S. in 1999, this poignant narrative blends history, philosophy, and spirituality to ask: Can faith topple tyranny? With vivid testimonies and reflections, it's a tribute to the Cuban people's unyielding hope. Perfect for readers of Latin American history, religion, and political change.
