title: Part I: News shorts; Part II: "A Cuban View of Cuban Culture"

description: Part I: In Peru, escalating violence in Cusco and Arequipa underscores serious unrest, fueled by a teachers' strike accused of subversion. President Juan Velasco's confrontational rhetoric heightens tensions. In Chile, Cardinal Silva Henríquez balances delicate church-state relations post-coup, adapting to shifting political dynamics. The silence from the Archbishop's palace signals a cautious approach, amid censorship challenges faced by Mensaje, the church newspaper. The Chilean military's arrest of General Alfredo Bachelet suggests internal dissent within the ranks. Concerns over press freedom persist following the deaths of journalists, amidst international efforts to support Chilean resistance. In Mexico, President Echeverría warns against foreign investment encroaching on Mexican firms, amid controversial state company privatizations aimed at economic development. Recent events also include the assassination of a Ford executive in Argentina, reflecting heightened risks for foreign business figures. The Latin American Foreign Minister's Conference in Bogota emphasized regional solidarity, sovereignty support for Panama, and calls for reorganizing US-Latin America relations. Part II: In 1961, discussions in Cuba tackled art's role and freedom of expression under the revolution. Fidel Castro stressed acceptance of diverse expression but intolerance toward counter-revolutionary sentiments. Initiatives like the National School of Cuban Art fostered socially relevant creations. Poster art became a potent tool for revolutionary messages, and architecture focused on housing and public facilities. The National Ballet of Cuba gained acclaim, and efforts promoted authentic Cuban and Latin American music. Revolutionary Cuban cinema thrived with support from an institute dedicated to film education, aiming to democratize access to film. The Cuban Film Institute aimed to dismantle film language barriers, despite economic constraints and the US blockade. Cuban cinema faced the challenge of reflecting a changing reality without solidifying experiences.

description: Rebekah Ramos used ChatGPT and Voyant Tools to generate item-level metadata for the radio program recording, then reviewed and corrected the output. To create the radio program annotation dataset, Ramos created a spreadsheet containing columns for the start and end timestamps that encapsulated each speaker segment and a corresponding transcription of the audio. She then parsed out the corrected auto-generated metadata accordingly into additional columns/categories (places, people, organizations, subjects, and media sources). Once complete, Ramos published the annotation dataset with the program's recording using AVAnnotate (see related publication). Please refer to related publication "Latin American Press Review (LAPR) Radio Program Collection: Audio Transcription Processing and Tagging Guide" for specific details. The metadata generation and annotation of these audio recordings took place between 2024 August 1 and 2025 May 31.
