Carlos Alberto Montaner tells the story of how he was imprisoned by Fidel Castro's regime in Cuba, and how he fled the country for the United States and later Spain. He explains why he later became an author and how he's managed to influence the world in general and Cuba in particular through his writings. Montaner gives his thoughts on what we can learn from the Cuban dictatorship, and where the country is going in the future. Finally, he talks about the importance of universities like UFM in advancing liberty.
