Back from a recent trip to Cuba, Netfa Freeman, an analyst at the Institute for Policy Studies and coordinating committee member with the Black Alliance for Peace joins "By Any Means Necessary" to discuss conditions on the ground in Cuba with the announcement of rationing in the country due to US sanctions, how the US government and media skews the reality of what happens in Cuba and how the sanctions tie in with US foreign policy in Latin America
