Categorías:

In Cuba in the 1960s an 1970s gay men could be sent to work camps for "re-education".  Hostilities and discrimination against the gay community were widespread in the 1980s and 1990s as well.  However, today Cuba has one of the most progressive approaches to LGBTQ+ rights in the Americas.   In this podcast Dr Bob Huish talks with Dr. Emily Kirk to discuss how attitudes and policies changed in Cuba from being incredibly repressive to forwardly progressive.    Dr. Emily Kirk is a Research Fellow in the Department of International Development Studies at Dalhousie University, Canada. She is author of Cuba’s Gay Revolution, and co-editor of Cuba’s Forgotten Decade. Dr. Kirk continues to research the impact of the health-based approach to development within Cuba.
