To celebrate May Day in Cuba is to make the commemoration of workers a family celebration. That is why it is notorious that every time the world proletariat celebrates May Day, people take to the streets in jubilation.
Only by knowing in depth the rebellious nature and the high political culture of those who live on the island, it is possible to understand why May Day in Cuba has the nuance of a festivity.
One is rebellious against the inefficiency or failure of some policy that does not work in practice, but also against the constant siege, the economic war from abroad, the attempts to hinder development, the traps and the media war against everything that smells of Cuba.
That objective vision of the world that Cubans have, that perspective of what are the pros and cons of what is sold to them in the alternative media and subversive channels, is what allows them to understand the logic of change by force that has been tried to achieve in this Caribbean island.
So, there should be no surprises when next May Day the people once again take to the streets and offer, not a media show with the best audiovisual resources, but a demonstration of nature.
