Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Plea for Cuba: Addressed to the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States, Urging Immediate Action in Aid of the Struggle for Independence Now Going on in That Island The President's message has chilled the hearts of those who hoped that our Government would be disposed to help the struggling patriots of Cuba. There was evidently a great struggle in the Executive mind (or minds) in preparing this morceau for the public taste. "The United States, the freest of all nations" - alas, how is the sacred name of freedom degraded! "Its people sympathise with all peoples struggling for liberty and self government" - sympathy is cheap! "We should abstain from enforcing our views upon unwilling nations without invitation." Old Spain has not invited us to act against her interests in regard to Cuba; therefore we must stifle our "warm feelings and sympathies" for our near neighbors "struggling for independence and freedom." "This nation must be its own judge when to accord the rights of belligerents." But we think the Cuban patriots have nut suffered enough - there has not yet been a sufficient number of martyrs in this holy cause of liberty; not enough Cuban women and children have been sacrificed, not brave men enough have been shot in cold blood or butchered like beasts. The Cubans only hold more than half the territory of the island; they have only sustained their independent government for more than a year against the combined naval and land forces of Spain; Spain, which, though contending against itself, is yet united in holding Cuba in bondage. So we think that Cuba, has not yet done and suffered enough, for us to do more than say, we are sorry for her.

Download or read book The Free Flag of Cuba written by Orville Vernon Burton and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2002-10-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wife of South Carolina secessionist governor Francis W. Pickens and known as the “Queen of the Confederacy,” Lucy Holcombe Pickens (1832–1899) was during her lifetime one of the most famous women in the South. Rumor was that in her youth she published a novel under a pseudonym. Recently discovered as The Free Flag of Cuba; or, The Martyrdom of Lopez: A Tale of the Liberating Expedition of 1851, her 1854 book is a romanticized account of the 1851 filibustering expedition to Cuba by Narciso López. With this new edition, Orville Vernon Burton and Georganne B. Burton resurrect Holcombe’s lost work and prove it to be a window on many pressing nineteenth-century issues. A not-so-subtle plea for U.S. support for Cuban independence from Spain, Holcombe’s novel vindicates López and his men—who were officially regarded as mercenaries—and declares them to be martyred heroes. The tale clearly reflects the values southern aristocratic women expected in men, even if preserving those values meant death and defeat—a harbinger of ardent support for the Confederacy by women like Lucy. With an illuminating introduction detailing the life of Lucy Petway Holcombe Pickens and the historical context of her novel, this new edition of The Free Flag of Cuba is a welcome glimpse into the mind and value system of the southern belle who would become a southern icon.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Cuba, internationally renowned artists, philosophers, and writers reflect on the idea of a nation displaced. Featuring contributions from Isabel Alvarez Borland, Antonio Benítez-Rojo, María Cristina García, William Navarrete, Eliana Rivero, Rafael Rojas, and Carlos Victoria, as well as many others, Cuba is a rich collection of essays, testimonials, and interviews that reveal the complex, often antagonistic cultural and political debates coexisting within the Cuban exile population. As a multivoiced text, Cuba formulates a deeper understanding of diasporic identity, and broadens the discussion of the manner in which Cuban cultural identity and nationhood have been constructed, negotiated, and transformed by physical and cultural displacement.
