CGiii Comment

¡Quba! follows a diverse group of LGBTQ+ activists as they advocate for enshrining the family code (marriage equality) into the Cuban constitution. Ramon Silverio and Adela Hernandez, who have been working in this movement for over 40 years, join with younger activists, Las Isabellas, in Santiago de Cuba, as well as Ulises Suarez and Cenesex director Mariela Castro in Havana. After decades, Cubans were able to create a bridge between the Cuban government (Cenesex) and the population despite the vitriol of the evangelical Methodist church and the ever-present machismo embedded in Cuban culture. Activists both inside and outside the government creatively move the country to be more inclusive, more tolerant, and more aware that LGBTQ+ equality is an essential component of the revolution. This story of love uses music (Los Zafiros!) and performance to stimulate joy and justice along the way to Cuba becoming the first Communist government in the world to include LGBTQ+ human rights.
