In 2022, Cuba held a referendum for a new Families Code, a major overhaul to the country’s constitution in regard to sexuality, gender, and family life. This code greatly expands the rights of women, queer and trans people, and ultimately all Cubans.
This book documents how Cuba’s socialist revolution made this possible, with discussion about what LGBTQ+ communities can learn from Cuba’s example, at a time when capitalist governments like the U.S. are trying to erase queer and trans people and push back all gains made by working-class and oppressed people.
Join us to hear from @strugglelalucha editors Melinda Butterfield and Gregory Williams and to celebrate the launch of this important story.
