   This article examines the ways black and mulato Cubans in the late 1960s and early 1970s continued to fight against racial discrimination despite the official end of the 1959 revolution's antidiscrimination campaign and announcement that racism no longer existed in Cuba. By focusing on the work of Sara Gómez (1943–1974), the first black woman filmmaker at the National Cuban Film Institute (ICAIC), the article shows how Gómez highlighted the experiences of Afro-Cubans and encouraged the revolution to live up to its antiracist and feminist goals. Gómez explored themes related to class divisions, racial discrimination, and gender inequalities and used the lens of her camera and ethnographic techniques to narrate histories about everyday lives in revolutionary Cuba. The article analyzes three of Gomez's lesser-known documentaries to reevaluate how censorship, antiracism, and feminism worked in Cuba in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Read less

   This article examines four poems published by Cuban author Virgilio Piñera (1912–1979) in the official Revolutionary literary journal Casa de las Américas in 1961. The poems illustrate the depth of Piñera’s optimism about the freedom of personal and artistic self-expression he believed Cuba’s new government would allow. This attitude is evident in the fact that the texts dramatize personal acts of transcendence in the face of social repression. The speakers of the poems evidence a faith in the power of theatricality to allow the apprehension and revelation of an authentic self. The timing of the texts’ publication is of poignant significance, given that later the same year, Piñera found himself the victim of the Revolution’s intention to suppress both sexual and intellectual individuality.

   Discussion: The meaning of Cuban journalistic professionalism seems to be more associated with the ideals of social justice, citizen participation, political commitment, and national sovereignty, and with a formative model of a humanist and critical journalist, than the autonomy or the consistency of the media system rules. Among the most used factors to explain this behavior, are the ideology and the Sovietization of the press model in the 1970s (Garcia, 2013; Garcia, 2017), censorship practices, the economic organization of the media (Elizalde, 2014; Franco, 2016; Terrero, 2018), the historical tradition (Arencibia, 2017; Salazar, 2017), the communicative inflection of the US political conflict against Cuba whose effects have been associated with the notion of "state of siege" (González, 2017; Vidal, 2017), the quality of university education, the socializing role of politics (Estrada, 1996) and associationism (Oller et al., 2016), generational differences (Natvig, 2019), the accumulation of unfulfilled expectations concerning the transformation of the media system (Garcia, 2013), among others. Journalistic professionalism is an interconnected process, among other elements, "with the constitution of a particular conception of what the public really is" (Hallin and Mancini, 2012, p. 292); and with competitive values such as freedom of the press, national security, privacy, stability, consensus, among others. [...]the meaning of "professionalism" differs between societies (Hallin and Mancini, 2012, p. 290), in practice, and perceptions (Roudakova, 2012). [...]the nature, social structure, dynamics, and duration over time of the political conflicts in society shape the pluralism and political action of the media (Hallin and Mancini, 2008; Voltmer, 2013), which in the Cuban context goes through taking into account the US conflict against the country, and associated with it, migration and transnational information flows (Cearns, 2021).
