Cuban Raft Voyage: Inspired By The 1994 Cuban Migrant Crisis

By Gordon England

During the summer of 1994, thousands of Cubans were allowed to leave their island on makeshift boats and rafts in hopes of migrating to the United States. These rafters, known as balseros, endured harrowing journeys across the Straits of Florida to reach freedom from tyranny. This story follows four Cubans who embark upon a raft voyage of enduring valor in a quest for freedom as they fight to survive the ocean's rugged fury, swarms of sharks, and deadly drug runners.
