Hunger Strikes Are an Effective Method with a Clear Objective(s) / Anddy
Sierra Alvarez
The 21st century. A country called Cuba, where it citizens fight for a
transparent democracy and for the freedoms that this encompasses. There
are very few resources to achieve the power of the people in a country
tossed into the abyss 53 years ago.
The Cuban counterrevolution, the opposition or the fighters for human
rights in Cuba; whatever you want to call them, they have exhausted
almost all their resources. The only one left is the most drastic
option, the HUNGER STRIKE.
The opposition in Cuba has always tried to come to an agreement with the
government, but it has always avoided any change and its governmental ideal.
Thus, the hunger strike has become a weapon against the Castro tyranny.
Despite the fact that it is a weapon that destroys human being who
undertakes it.
In reality the government has no interest in the deaths that could
happen with this desperate measure. They are only focused on not losing
their totalitarian power and avoiding democracy on the island. Space
But with a clear objective and a well defined goal, this weapon has
become the Achilles tendon of the Castros.
