You can say higher, but not clearer. The Cuban self-employed Diasniurka Salcedo Verdecia, tired of being called a 'worm', has sent a strong message to her harassers: "Let's see, Claris, what do I do. All those who think like me, I am ready for anything and it is now "he wrote on his Facebook wall.
Diasniurka Salcedo is a graduate of Accounting and Finance and Cultural Promotion. She has also received English classes, taught emerging courses, studied Hairdressing and Beauty, been a child educator and has had six babies in her care. On the farm where he lives he raises pigs, chickens and grows fruit. In addition, she works as a hairdresser. "I have worked like a mule with a disabled hand and in the end, what?" he complains in the post that has received 2,400 likes, more than 1,400 comments and has been shared 806 times.
Despite working hard and making so much sacrifice, Diasniurka Salcedo assures that she cannot take her son to Varadero, she does not have a car to get around, she cannot eat what she wants or enjoy a good hotel. He also does not receive respected medical care nor can he go to the new stores. "Everything is I don't have and I can't. If I eat, I don't see and if I see, I don't eat. So what, Clarias? I'm an entrepreneur and it's of no use to me. If I raise, now they confiscate everything," she wrote.
On top of that, due to the pandemic, she is not allowed to keep the hair salon open or take care of babies. "Let's see, Claris, what do I do," he asks himself again.
Diasniurka Salcedo also states that she has left her studies to care for the land. "And I can't even sell my fruits because it's a crime," he complains.
To those who call her 'worm' she answers: "If by telling the truth I am a worm, then with my truth I am and will be a worm. Long live Cuba! I will change the system and I will show that Cubans do a lot with little."
It also disgraces the Government of Cuba by not experiencing the miseries of the people. "While I suffer and fight with so many limitations, the leaders live and enjoy what many deserve. That is why I will not get tired and shout: Long live Cuba!"
And to those who believe she will emigrate, Diasniurka Salcedo tells them that they will be looking forward to seeing her leave. "I will not leave. Cuba is not for those who call themselves revolutionaries and are a scourge, who only want American dollars, but for Cubans who respect each other. I will continue here with a fixed idea and waiting for change. All those who think like me, I am ready for whatever it is and it is now," she concluded.
The Cuban Government continues its harassment of entrepreneurs. In Placetas (Villa Clara), the Cuban-American businessman was arrested at the beginning of this month of August. Raúl Gómez, owner of the La Casona hostel, accused of buying liquid soap.
This fence also closes around the peasants. This is the case of Osniel Fernández, a farmer and rancher from the Isle of Youth from whom the Cuban Government has confiscated the lands that belonged to his father and grandfather since before 1959.. In this case, they accuse him of not selling his products to a state cooperative.
