NUEVA GERONA, November 1 - (Carlos Serpa Maceira, UPECI / www.cubanet.org) -
The administration of government Radio Caribe, in the Isle of Youth, south of
Havana, fired the program director of a popular music segment because he
programed rap music banned by the Cuban Institute of Radio and Television.
Carlos Ramón Casallanas, the director of "Qué programa"
(What a program!) a show with wide appeal among the young, played a Cuban rap
number called "Respuesta a la tiza" (A response to the chalk) actually
a sequel to an earlier number called "La tiza" (The chalk), but
critical of social problems.
"The program administrator at Radio Caribe told me the number was
banned because of ‘ideological deviation’ but they never showed me
the bulletin issued by the Institute," said Casallanas.
