Cuban writers adhere to the revolution
In Havana a visiting reporter tours La Bodeguita del Medio with Cuban officials Ernesto Dum Pierre and Jose A. Tabares del Real. They discuss writing within the revolution, the role of the writers union, and the limits on dissent, noting Castro's dictum that inside the revolution everything, outside nothing. The piece contrasts Cuban censorship with freer press norms back home.
