Cuban Stories: Episode 32 - A Cuban Thanksgiving Story

Cuban Stories: Episode 32 - A Cuban Thanksgiving Story

A dual-language episode. First narrated in English and then in Spanish. The Spanish portion starts midway in the recording. As mentioned in the previous episode, Thanksgiving Day is around the corner. So what better way to share our immigrant experiences of adopting a holiday we never celebrated in Cuba? Margarita, Natalia, and Dr. Florencio Nadal Jr. share with us a story that reflects the Cuban spirit in exile. The episode includes so many aspects previously included in other Green Plantain podcasts, but never in one where it gives a complete portrait of the family tribulations and successes. Experiences ranging from political imprisonment to sending children alone with Operation Pedro Pan and almost starting from scratch professionally to make their way in exile and build a strong family. A family which has become an integral part of the infrastructure in our adopted country. ___________ Como se mencionó en el episodio anterior, el Día de Acción de Gracias está a la vuelta de la esquina. Entonces, ¿qué mejor manera de compartir nuestras experiencias de inmigrantes al adoptar un día festivo que nunca celebramos en Cuba? Margarita, Natalia y el Dr. Florencio Nadal Jr. comparten con nosotros una historia que refleja el espíritu cubano en el exilio. El episodio incluye muchos aspectos previamente incluidos en otros podcasts de Green Plantain, pero nunca en uno donde da un retrato completo de las tribulaciones y éxitos familiares. Experiencias que van desde el encarcelamiento político hasta el envío de niños a solas con la Operación Pedro Pan y casi empezar de cero profesionalmente para abrirse camino en el exilio y criar una familia fuerte. Una familia que se ha convertido en parte integral de la infraestructura en nuestro país adoptivo.
