About this listen

Around her 10th birthday, Silvia Lopez's world underwent a significant change. Her family left their native Cuba for Florida. It was the early 1960s, and Fidel Castro had joined forces with what was the USSR. Silvia shares her story of immigration to the USA, speaking little English during a time when Cubans weren't welcome. She discusses the struggle her parents had, her perspective on assimilating into a new culture, and how she keeps her Cuban roots alive today.
