HAVANA – July is a month of anniversaries in Cuba: Fidel Castro’s assault on the Moncada Barracks, which started the revolution, in 1953; the killing of the revolutionary general Arnaldo Ochoa, which shocked many Cubans, in 1989; and the sinking of a tugboat with dozens of people on board in the summer of 1994, at the height of the rafters’ exodus. To these historical dates we must add the moment in which the Cubans resumed the streets, our streets.
