MIAMI, Florida – There’s growing unrest in Cuba as the communist government struggles to deal with island-wide blackouts and a collapsing economy. As President Donald Trump alludes to change on the island, the Cuban community in Miami is left wondering what is next.
The island has experienced 67 years of authoritarian rule where the Communist Party of Cuba is the only legal party. Last week, protesters attacked a Communist Party headquarters on the island overnight, ransacking the building and attempting to set it on fire, according to local reports.
"The protesters are more brave today than before," said Jose Collazo, a Cuban migrant who left the island in the 1960’s. "But if you remember four years ago when they came out, they were brutally repressed."
