FIDEL CASTRO SPEECH TO WO~tu1 t S CONGRESS
Havana in Spanish to the Americas 0451. GMT 16 January 1963--E
(Live speech by Fidel Castro at the closing of the Congress of Women of
the Americas)
(Text) Women of America; fraternal delegates--be patient--fraternal
delegates--can you hear?--of the countries of Europe., Asia, and Africa who
are visiting us. In the first place, I want to make clear--.as I have
already told some of the lady comrades of the congress-.-that if this
function began a little late, it was not my fault. (Laughter) Because
this year is the year of organization (laughter)o I was in the theater
at 2057 (laughter), and we intend during this year of organization to be
punctual. What happened was that the comrades: the comrades of the
congress talked a lot. I think they were speaking till eight or nine
more or less, until eight and then some (laughter): and that is why this
function began a little late. I only want to make it clear that it was
not my fault. (Laughter)
It has been a very great honor for us: for our country: that Cuba is the
site of this congress. We understand that it has been a very positive
event: a serious event. We have tried to keep ourselves informed, to
read the material of the various reports presented to the congress, and
our impression is really that all of them have great value because of their
seriousness, the correct focusing of the problems: the enormous amount of
data they contribute about the realities of our continent.
Naturally, the topics of the congress were restricted to those sections
that relate to the interests of women, but what, really: does not interest
woman in modern society? What does not interest the Latin American woman:
the American woman regarding our social problems? When discussions are
held about the rights of women: of their aspirations: we see that there
cannot be rights of women in our America or rights of children, mothers,
or wives if there is no revolution. (Applause) The fact is that in the
world in which the American woman lives, the woman must necessarily be
revolutionary. (Applause) Why must she be revolutionary? Because
woman, who constitutes an essential part of every people: is, in the
first place: exploited as a worker and discriminated against as a
woman.

And who are the revolutionaries in the society of man? Who were they
throughout history? In sisal; le terms, the exploited and the discriminated.
Because woman is not only exploited as a worker when she works for an
exploiting; nonopoly, for a society of...exploiting classes, but even as a
worker she is the most exploited worker, with the lowest salaries, the
worst conditions, with a series of contradictions among her social
functions-P-her condition as a woman and the exploitation to which she
is subjected!
Thus, logically, women are revolutionary, and on a continent like this,
':hey must be revolutionary; That is why in our country women are
"revolutionary. (Applause) In our country many women were exploited.
They were exploited as workers who worked to enrich a class, and were
also discriminated against as worker. Many women did not even have
access to work, to the opportunity to work.
In Comrade Vilmats report, there appears a report on the activities of
the Cuban woman within the revolution and the benefits the Cuban woman
has received through the revolution. The report was long, but even so it
is possible that the report has some ommissions, because the revolutions
has done even more for woman. It does not believe it has done it all, not
in the least, but it intends to continue to work for the woman. And, in
our country, the woman, like the 1/egro, is no longer discriminated against.
In reality, the revolution has meant much to the Cuban woman. Within the
revolution, the revolutionary leadership makes efforts to make available
more and more opportunities to the woman. As an example we can cite the
fact that when the medium and large shoe, clothing, and hardware sales
enterprises were nationalized, the Ministry of internal Trade was
instructed to select women as administrators of those firms. (Applause)
Some 1i-,000 administrators--(Castro now corrects himself--Ed.) that is,
administrators for some 4,000 centers--90 percent or more are presently
administered by women.
There is another statistic, for example, that did not appear in the report
of the comrade president of the federation--and it is very illustrative--
about the increase of the participation of the woman in activities that
were practically closed to her: It is the fact that, for example, in
some professions, such as the medical profession, the number of women
'ho entered that university school was, possibly, less than 10 percent.
At this time, in the institute of basic medical sciences, that is to
s, the first year of medical schools, about 50 percent are women.
(Applause)

Those facts of evidence of how, in four years of revolution, the woman has
been incorporated into social life, the life of her country, the life
of the circle" in which she lives and develops. For examrole, women also
paraded along with our soldiers on 2 Janua.?y in contingents of women's
military battalions. In our army there are a series of.functions in
which women work and perform services,, The bourgeois concept. -of
'womanhood is.disappearing in our country. The concepts of stigma,
concepts" of discrimination, have really been disappearing in our
country, and the masses of women have realized this.
Prejudice--.is being replaced by a new concept in which the qualities
of the woman are valued for a series of social activities, in some
of which they demonstrate exceptional virtues. A broad field of
action has been opened..to there. If you compare the report of the
Cuban delegation with the reports of the delegations of Latin America,
-see the great differences. The problems here now
you will be able to
are, for example, how to free the woman from domestic slavery, how to
create conditions that would, permit her to participate as much as
possible in production, from which the woman and the. revolution both
profit.
Within a society like the capitalist society--one of unemployment,
millions of men without work--it is logical that women are many times
relegated to restricted, economic activities. Within a Society like
ours, in which, because of the complete development of all the resources
of the nation and our planned economy, more and more labor is needed
for production, it is logical that the revolution concern itself with
creating those conditions. And. so today the revolution is concerned
with the establishment of the largest possible number of children's
centers, student dining halls, and with the creation of those
circumstances that will enable the women not to be a slave of the
kitchen; and with the establishment of laundries.
It is clear that the increase of certain of those institutions, such as
ch.ild.ren's centers, is restricted by the resources we may have under
certain circumstances. This year emphasis is being placed on the
establishment of workers' dining balls in the principal factories
of the country, and next year the accent will be placed on the
establishment of students' dining halls. The deveJ.opraent of those
jnstitutions will enable the woman to participate more in work,
"production, and the life of her country--not, only economic activities,
but pol_ii ica.7. and srx~iq"7 nx-.-r.3vj.ti.es as well. (App.1ause~

Today those are our concerns, because the women in our country are able
to be concerned with these solutions. The Cuban delegation has also
spoken of the gigantic effort made by the revolution on the education
front. There is hardly any need to speak; it is sufficient to see it.
This movement can be seen. It is a movement that is forging a great
future for this country; it is a movement that demonstrates the
objectives of the revolution projected, above all, toward the future.
It has permitted the duplication of the number of children in the
schools, the duplication of the number of students in secondary and
superior schools, the eradication of illiteracy, and it can enable this
country to march forward in forging a uiagnificient youth destined to
inherit the conditions the revolution is creating for that youth.
Our problem now is not how to win the right to do that, but how to
do it as perfectly as possible: There is a difference between the
situation of the women of America represented in this congress and
the representation of the Cuban women: Cuban women have the opportunity
to do all that, and the American women need that opportunity. Our
problems are different in the sense that it now is how we will do it
and how best we can do it. For us it is no longer a matter of the
chance to have, let us say, nearly 100,000 youths studying under state
scholarships, but rather how to organize them, now to see to it that
the schools where they study are more efficient, how to train cadres
of teachers, and how to do that task well.
That does not mean that we do not have much work. On the contrary,
there is more and more work all the time in the revolution. But the
revolution is creating resources and more resources along the march.
An example of how those resources are created is the fact that it
recently was necessary to receive in our capital nearly 10,000 young
peasant girls from Oriente Province. (Applause) Whom" to give that
task to? The federation of women had been in charge of that work, but
the federation of women had the work of attending to all the boarding
houses of 'the scholarship students. It did not have enough cadres,
but there was a teachers' school that was organized by a group of
brigadist girls who participated in 1961 in the great literacy campaign,
a school of 1,100 young girls who were studying to be teachers. It
is a good school.
The comrade who is in charge of that school, and who is a great pedagogue
because she knows how to teach, Comrade Elena .Gi:L, had begun with a group
of 300 revolutionary instructors--that is, 300 female teachers formed
from groups of youths who volunteered to teach in the mountains. She
began by training 300 revolutionary instructors for the night schools
for girls who work in domestic service. This was the first school.
First there were 300. With those 300 girls, the night schools were
organized.

Then there were another 300, and their nunT. .r reached 600. With the
help of these girls, the A!tacarense T:r v ' E,! c institute was organized.
That trained 1,100 of whom 300 were selected for spec.al courses, w3:th
those 300 the. rest of the girls, the school.s for the 2.0,00") peasant girls
who arrived were organized. (App.ae
We already had cadres--girls from the literacy who had
already studied one year, girls who already have discipline, a sense of
responsibility. It is really impressive to cross one of these avenues
where mil,l,ionaries once lived and find groups of girls in uniforms,
peasant girls going from,one place to another--,possibly to eat
or to class. With them, in her scholarship student uniform, a girl
who was in some cases younger than the peasant girls themsieves, but
they were (as heard) the leaders. They were in charge of the group:
they were in charge_of the house in which they live and were, in
addition, their teachers. They work and study.
Consider how those girls are being trained, already receiving that
responsibility, already getting serious tasks, fulfilling them. They
have a system, and they combine study with works This indicates that
the number of persons trained will be greater all the time. Nov we
must organize another teachers 8 school. The revolution changed the method
of selecting teachers, because teachers used to be selocted exclusively
from persons from the city. The revolution charged that procedure. It
established a system of selection and opportunity for all girls and
boys who want to become teachers, and the system begins in the mountains.
(App ::fuse )
That is why we now have 5,000 youths in the mountains who are
entering their first year of studies for the teaching profession.
Later they will go to school for two more years. Then they will
go to a higher institute where they will stay for another two years.
Many of those ferule teachers will be'of peasant extraction, girls
familiar with the mountains, with the rural areas.
At the same time, we are organizing pre-university courses for
peasant girls who are in the fourth and fifth grades and want to
begin studying to be teachers. From those same 10,000 peasant girls
we will select those with the greatest vocational (appitude-.Ed.
and prepare them to enter those schools. Within a per,od of time we
will have our higher institute for teachers with 6,000 students, v-orn
we can mobilize so )that they in turn can teach, combining studies with
work. This is being carried out with the great effort of a certain number
of persons who work on that front.

Are there. many persons who are perfectly competent for.that. task? Iti'o,
u brttnate1;,~, there are not But when there is a competent person
in cha_ge of any of those activities, he creates what we can call a
school; that is, a system of work. We do not have many Elesas. now, but
in the future we will have hundredS.of Elesas, because they will be the
girls she trained. Every day there will be more schools, superior schools,
and we need many cadres in education to organize and take charge of those
schoolc. Thus advances the revolution with its youth. It can do it.. We
have won the opportunity to begin to do all that.
The comrades of Latin America present a realistic picture of the situation
of the continent. It is really frightening. We believe that all those
reports should be published in a pamphlet to be distributed here and
outside (applause) in Latin America. Those figures are really depressing-
the statistics about the number of children without schools or teachers;
undernourished; the shameful figures of the percentage of children who
reach the sixth grade, the percentage of those who can undertake secondary
studies,, and the percentage of those who can undertake university studies;
the figures on infant mortality, the consequence of the unhealthy
conditions in which they live, the undernourishment,, the lack of medical
programs.
To day. this is not our situation. Today, we can say that not a single
child is crippled by poliomyelitis; we can say that tens of thousands of
children are saved as a result of medical assistance. More and more
-national public health programs continue to develop. The number of
beds in our hospitals has practically tripled. The resources assigned to
public health have been quintupled. Today those are not our problems,
but they are the problem-of an entire continent.
Our Problem is how to create eve hin, we need to satify so
to overcome the Poverty which im eria ist ex oitatlon eft us. That is
our problem. Our ;so is big, hard, difficult! And ]. is no easy to
have to carry out that task with the threatening claws of imperialism
hanging over us, with the ceaseless hostility of the most powerful and
aggressive imperialist nation of the world. How to carry out that work
is our problem. How to defend the revolution and the sovereignty of
this country while at the same time advancing, that is our problem.
But that, American women, is not your problem. Your problem, and that
of the peoples you represent, is how to win the opportunity to do this,
which we are doing.'(Applause) We are certain we will advance--in some.
Nears -more, in some years less.

highly industrialized and exploiting countries.

We must be very clear on these controversial and subtle questions.
We must be clear on them. If it is said that we are here, that" is,
that we have not been destroyed because of the solidarity of
the socialist camp, it is the truth. But if it said that we are

They murdered an 11-year old in San Antonio de Las Vegas. They

The policy of subversion declared by the imperialists. What did we

isolate our country and pressure all shipping lines and airlines in
