The interview was aired by Cuban television on Tuesday in the International Round Table program. From the Hall of Fame of the capital’s Hotel Nacional de Cuba, journalist Arleen Rodriguez presented her interviewee, who was in Havana to participate in the First Meeting of African and Caribbean Filmmakers.
   During their conversation, Glover made reference to his three visits to Gerardo Hernandez in prison, one of the five Cuban antiterrorists serving long sentences in his country.  He asserted that every time he comes out of Gerardo’s prison he wishes what the Cuban wishes, that is, that Gerardo can be free some day and that people see Cuba as it actually is.
   The US actor also highlighted the role of the Caribbean as the biggest representative of African descendants in Latin America, and stated that this region, with its popular processes of change, is establishing guidelines of what should happen in the world, and that this has given him hope.
   “Americans have to understand, and above all respect, that the exceptional is not in the United States, but in what is happening un Latin America, which is the key to restore humanity and peace,” emphasized Glover.  
   The mere election of a president, like in the case of Barack Obama in the United States, is not going to bring the solutions demanded by the peoples. These changes should come precisely from popular roots, concluded the US artist.
