Cuban Cuisine
[ send me this paper ]
12 pages in length. Cuban cuisine is world renown for its vibrant flavors and unique combination of ingredients to produce some of the most exquisite tastes known to man. Leading the culinary community with innovative and trendsetting cooking techniques, Cuba has long been revered for its delicious contributions. One must harken back, however, to the days before Castro's revolution to truly understand and appreciate the extent to which food reflected the very foundation of Cuban existence. Since the revolution, Cuban cuisine has changed to reflect a decidedly less creative approach, inasmuch as the government has effectively squelched any and all possible inventiveness by taking control of the restaurant market.

Hernandez/Buena Vista Social Club
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page essay that examines an essay on an aspect of Latino culture. In 1997, Warner Music produced an album, the Buena Vista Social Club (BVSC), which won a Grammy in 1998 and ultimately become one of the best-selling albums of all time--worldwide. Subsequently, in 1999, a documentary, by the same name, was produced that gave all of the credit for the BVSC album, regarding its impetus and production, to North American guitarist Ry Cooder (Hernandez 62). In her essay on this topic, Tanya Hernandez makes a number of intriguing points concerning the relationship between popular culture and the legacy of imperialism. Two of these points are that Ry Cooder's glorified role regarding the album is a continuation of the "discoverer/conqueror" mythos and, secondly, that the BVSC's glorification of prerevolutionary Cuba ignores the social realities of that era.
