Alina Fernandez, the daughter of Cuban President Fidel Castro
Please join us for this special program sponsored by The Office of Multicultural Affairs & SGA, HACC Lancaster Campus and the High Companies: In recognition of Hispanic Heritage Month, we are fortunate to present a special guest, Alina Fernandez, the daughter of Cuban President Fidel Castro. Fernandez will share with us her experience growing up as the child of one of the world’s most infamous leaders and the events that eventually led her to renounce his reign. As she grew older, the political practices she witnessed under her father’s regime and the neglect she experienced drove her to leave her homeland and to seek refuge in the United States. We hope you are able to join us in the celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month. The extraordinary story of Fernandez experiences growing up under the shadow of Fidel Castro will be one with strength, emotion, and courage. Light refreshments will be served.
