Listen "Maikel"
Episode Synopsis
A licenced architect in Cuba, our friend Maikel was forced to leave in order to avoid being jailed by the Cuban state. In a perilous, many-legged journey, here he is, after planes and boats, jungles and rivers, detention centers and now free but unentitled to work until his hearing, which is scheduled for 2025. And for Cubans, this journey is relatively painless, compared to everyone else forced to migrate by circumstance. We are honored to hear Maikel share his story of Cuba and his new life here.
