Cuba Was the Warning: What Americans Need to Know About Life Inside Totalitarianism

Cuba did not lose its freedom overnight.

It happened through promises. Through crisis. Through a charismatic leader. Through the language of justice, equality, and national renewal. Through the capture of education, media, property, labor, religion, culture, civil society, and finally, the conscience of the citizen.

In Inside Totalitarianism: Understanding Its Anatomy and Physiology from the Cuban Perspective, Salvador Subira offers a powerful Cuban diagnosis of how totalitarianism takes root and how a republic can be transformed into a system of control. Written from the experience of a Cuban who witnessed the revolution, resisted its betrayal, and carried the memory of a lost republic, this work is both a historical analysis and a warning.

Translated and carried forward by Marla Fatima Fernandez, this edition connects Cuba’s story to America’s civic moment. It asks urgent questions: What protects a free people from the concentration of power? What happens when citizens forget the institutions that defend liberty? What is the difference between compassion and control, unity and conformity, advocacy and dependency?.

Why You Should Read This Book:


This book is not only about Cuba. It is about how freedom disappears when people stop understanding what

freedom requires.

For readers concerned about history, constitutional liberty, education, faith, family, civil society, and the future of America, Inside Totalitarianism is a call to remember, reflect, and recover civic courage.

Cuba was the warning.

America must be the answer.

How to Teach Your Child to Read: A Homeschool Mother’s Guide to Phonics, Patience, and the Joy of Learning

Teach reading with confidence, patience, and a method that respects the child.

How to Teach Your Child to Read is a practical guide for parents, homeschoolers, tutors, and caregivers who want to build strong reading skills without turning reading into a battle.

Drawing from her own experience teaching her son, Marla Fatima Fernandez explains how reading develops through phonemic awareness, phonics, ear training, tongue training, eye training, word building, grammar, narration, comprehension, and daily practice. She also addresses something many reading manuals overlook: the emotional side of learning.

Some children recognize letters early but still struggle with independent reading. Some love stories but tire quickly. Some lose reading stamina when screens begin to dominate their attention. And parents can become exhausted too.

This handbook offers a slower, more humane approach: teach the fundamentals thoroughly, watch for fatigue, protect the child’s confidence, and build reading habits one step at a time. It also includes practical strategies for rebuilding attention when video games and digital entertainment begin replacing books.

Why You Should Read This Book:


Inside, readers will learn how to:

  • Develop phonemic awareness before formal phonics;

  • Connect sounds, speech, letters, and words;

  • Use short lessons, repetition, songs, games, and read-alouds;

  • Strengthen comprehension through narration and grammar;

  • Recognize when a child is tired rather than resistant;

  • Rebuild reading stamina gradually;

  • Create a home environment where books remain part of everyday life.

At its heart, this is more than a phonics guide. It is a reminder that teaching a child to read is also a relationship - built through patience, perseverance, and the willingness to begin again, one sound, one word, one sentence, and one page at a time.
