for many cubans the years before 1958 were hard as in many other countries the cubans rarely owned the land they work hard to tell. life in the city sims was also -- city slums was also depressing. most of these poor cubans the proletariat -- suffered almost as if they were under fair -- unaware there was another way to live. when fidel castro was ready to come out of -- the supporters faced -- but in the middle class. ironically it is -- who performed the advanced guard revolution. when the pied piper seeks to broaden -- the poor are there to listen. many believe -- the revolution is a success. castro brother is a self- proclaimed communist and his close associate had participated in the unsuccessful revolution and guatemala. few cubans even in the middle class believe that fidel castro would ever turn communist. at first he promises free elections, he acknowledges many of the traditional rights of citizens and the established institutions of government. but the elections never take place. the government quickly becomes an instrument of coercion and the takeover is a success. >>berlin
