Our History Is Still Being Written: The Story of Three Chinese-Cuban Generals in the Cuban Revolution
- Used Book in Good Condition
A chapter in the chronicle of the Cuban Revolution, as told by those on the front lines of that ongoing epic.

Armando Choy, Gustavo Chui, and MoisÃ©s SÃo Wongâ€”three young rebels of Chinese-Cuban ancestryâ€”threw themselves into the great proletarian battle that defined their generation. They became combatants in the clandestine struggle and 1956â€“58 revolutionary war that brought down a U.S.-backed dictatorship and opened the door to the socialist revolution in the Americas. Each became a general in Cubaâ€™s Revolutionary Armed Forces.

Here they talk about the historic place of Chinese immigration to Cuba, as well as more than five decades of revolutionary action and internationalism, from Cuba to Angola, Nicaragua, and Venezuela. Through their stories the social and political forces that gave birth to the Cuban nation and still shape our epoch unfold. We see how millions of ordinary men and women like them changed the course of history, becoming different human beings in the process.
