On this episode we dig into the centrepiece of Cuba’s revolution — the Agrarian Reform Act of 1959. We break down exactly what the law said, why even the Cuban Communist Party thought Castro was moving too fast, and how ordinary Cubans from all walks of life started pooling their own money to make it happen. And we set up the moment one wealthy, well-connected American walked into Eisenhower’s office and arguably shaped US-Cuba policy for the next 75 years.
