Handout: The Situation in Cuba
Don José Julián Martí y Pérez was born in Havana in 1853, and sentenced to prison as a teenager for expressing his support for the revolution (during the Ten-Year War). After his sentence he traveled to Spain, where he received degrees in law and philosophy before returning to Cuba. He was banished again for supporting the idea of Cuban independence and traveled to Paris and Venezuela, before settling in New York in 1881, earning a living as a writer and teacher.
José Martí was one of the great writers of the Hispanic world. His written works include poems, children stories, plays, articles and commentaries.
In 1892 Martí dedicated himself exclusively to planning and organizing what became Cuba’s second war of independence. Aside from enlisting the support of Ten-Year War veterans Antonio Maceo, Maximo Gomez and others, he started the Cuban Revolutionary Party, which raised funds for the war and established a Cuban government that would take over when the war was over.
By March 1894, Martí began to push for immediate revolutionary action. Historian Philip Foner sheds light on his urgency: “Martí’s impatience to start the revolution for independence was affected by his growing fear that the imperialist forces in the United States would succeed in annexing Cuba before the revolution could liberate the island from Spain. Martí noticed with alarm the movement to annex Hawaii, viewing it as establishing a pattern for Cuba …”
Martí died in battle shortly after the war began. He is known in Cuba as the father of the Cuban Revolution.

Answer:
Know Your Feelings
It's easier to talk about your feelings if you know how you feel and why. Try these easy steps:
Think of the name for how you feel. (Let's say you feel nervous.)
Think of why you feel that way. (Let's say you are nervous because you have a spelling test tomorrow.)
Put them together into words. (Say to yourself, "I feel nervous about my spelling test tomorrow.")
If you don't know why you feel a certain way, you can still talk about it. You can say, "I feel upset, but I don't know why."
Pick Someone to Talk to
A parent, grandparent, or a friend can be a good person to talk to. It's easier than you think. You can start by going to the person and saying, "Can we talk for a minute?" Then say how you feel and why.
Let the other person listen. Maybe they will give you advice. Or say something kind. Maybe they will help you laugh, or give you a hug. Or say, "Don't worry, I'll help you study your spelling words." Just saying how you feel and why helps you start to feel better. It helps to know you are not alone with a problem or worry.
Talk About Feelings Any Time
You don't have to wait for a big problem to talk about your feelings. You can say how you feel any time. It's a good thing to practice.
Talking about feelings doesn't have to be a big talk. You can make a short and simple comment. Like this:
"Dad, I'm really glad we're having pizza tonight! Thanks!"
"I'm excited about the game tonight. I think the coach will let me start."
"I'm so relieved because I did really well on my math test!"
"I felt so awkward when I asked Kyle to the dance, and I was so happy when he said yes!"
You don't have to talk about every feeling you have. But noticing your feelings and saying how you feel and why is good practice. The more you do it, the easier it gets. Talking about your feelings is a healthy way to express them. And when you have difficult feelings you need to talk over, you'll be ready
