The renowned Cuban journalist Javier Díaz shared a deep reflection on the meaning of freedom on his social media this Monday, comparing his life before and after leaving the Caribbean nation.
On Facebook, Díaz shared a photo of the Parthenon in Greece and expressed that the true understanding of what it means to live in freedom comes when one can experience life outside the limitations imposed by the Cuban regime.
In addition, he thanked for the opportunity he has had outside the island to experience a different reality by visiting historical places that he had only known through photos or books.
"Living in freedom is about being able to do so many things with your life that until you leave Cuba, you don't really understand it," Díaz reflected, highlighting the contrast between life in his homeland and the opportunities he has found abroad.
Recently, Díaz shared the profound emotion he felt when voting for the first time in a democratic election, a right he had never been able to exercise while living in Cuba.
In a post made on Facebook, Díaz expressed his enthusiasm for participating in the local elections in Miami, highlighting the importance of this democratic act.
The Cuban journalist residing in Miami stated in May that being born and living in Cuba is like being locked in a cage.
Currently, Díaz replaced Mario Vallejo as a news anchor at Univisión, a fact he considered "a great opportunity as a professional and a challenge at the same time."
Díaz explained on that social network that Vallejo "will now host the prime-time edition at 11:00 p.m. from Monday to Friday," while he will begin to present the news on Sundays at 6:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m., in addition to working as a journalist from Monday to Thursday in the television network.
