“The young men and women sitting around a living room somewhere in Havana laughed and talked as if they were guests at a party.But what they were telling their counterparts in South Florida was serious business. They railed against ”tyranny,” the persistent ”repression,” the potential for a ‘’social explosion,” rumors of a new rafter exodus and their annoyance that the media is not recognizing the efforts of younger dissidents.

Witnessed by reporters in Miami, via Internet video phone, the Havana living-room chat with five University of Miami students opened a window into a little-known dimension of post-Fidel Castro Cuba. Last week’s exchange occurred as Cuban officials and Cuban émigrés friendly to the regime met on the island to discuss easing rules restricting travel.”*
