Education in Cuba
The communist education in Cuba is inspired by the desire of changing the
mentality of the new generations and in that way to create: "the new man". A
man which is prohibited to see past communist ideals imposed by the
government of the country, even if parents are in disagreement with this
type of education. The Code of the Childhood and the effective Youth hood in
the Republic of Cuba, corroborate with this reality when they say:
"Article 3: The Communist formation of the young generation is an
aspiration of the one State, the family, the educators, the political
organizations and of the masses that act so that they aris and they are
developed within youth, the ideological values of Communism.
Article 5: The society and the State overlook the people that are linked to
the children and young adults in the educational process which constitute an
example for the formation of their communist personality.
Article 8: The society and the State work for the effective protection of
the youth before all influence contrary to their communist formation.
Article 18: The educators have a high mission in the formation of their
communist personality."
The student in Cuba is subordinated to the strongest controls of the maximum
political addresse of the island. For this purpose, not only are these
communist youth organizations and pioneers detailed in the government's
section and political organizations, but rather The Scholar's Accumulative
File which is an official document that has been created and must accompany
the student through of all the levels of the general education such as
primary, secondary, and pre-university education. In such file, all
information concerning to the student is filed, from the academic beginning
until its political and communist position. In this sense, the child in
question lives under the perennial threat of always having to display a
communist and revolutionary attitude in all moments of his/her life and must
reject all others who think or manifests a position contrary to the official
doctrine or communist ideology that they receive in their schools. That
student who is surprised expressing publicly a thought that differs from the
official one, not only is reprimanded strongly by the school office, but can
also be expelled dishonorably and have their academic filed tainted. This
taint in the file, will influence negatively in the student's further
studies and it would inhibit the student of pursuing the university career
that he/she may desire.
The Education in Cuba is atheist, the youth ignore the love to God and thy
neighbor. The only love that they know is to the Socialism and Fidel above
the family and friends. This means that all the children and young adults,
can be forced to denounce any individual that is projected against the
system, even their own parents. There is not God, there is nothing.
Among the officials watchwords that you/they should repeat in the school, we
can find the following ones:
"Pioneers for the Communism, we will be as Che"
"Commander in Chief, Order!
order over this earth,
that we will make the war,
if the imperialism comes"
"Hate and Death to the North American Imperialism!"
"Hatred as a factor of struggle; unconditional hatred towards your enemy,
which drives you further than human limitations and converts you into an
effective, violent, selective and cold killing machine."
Ernesto Che Guevara. 1967
The national program of the school at the fields, forces all the children at
he age of 12 to work in the fields. This is an effective resource so that
the child works from sunrise to sunset and at the same time is good to
alienate the child from his/her parents. This process of agricultural work
is continued year after year and it is an existent procedure in Cuba since
the decade of the sixties.
The system of interns maintain the children and the young adults alienated
from their homes and friends. For ten months, the young adults have to
remain in the field school and are allowed to come home one night per week.
The indoctrination every single morning, afternoon and nights is really
monstrous and it should be denounced.
The Cuban education that looks to form the "new man", constitutes the most
cruel and merciless ever seen before in any civilized country. The family,
conduced to a second place, suffers this pain, suffers and remain silent
when seeing its transformed son/daughter, atheist, where its native imperium
on them, has been snatched in the name of the law. |
