Fidel Castro

Castro volunteered to deliver a Speech

Sunday Nov 13, 1949
Cuba

Castro volunteered to deliver a speech for the Movement on 13 November, exposing the government's secret deals with the gangs and identifying key members. Attracting the attention of the national press, the speech angered the gangs and Castro fled into hiding, first in the countryside and then in the United States.
