Juan Angel Cardi is born

Throughout his professional life he came to stand out as an outstanding humorist writer and also as the creator of other literary works. After the triumph of the Revolution he began to write for radio and television programs and collaborated with different publications, among others, Zig-Zag, El Pitirre, Dedeté, Verde Olivo, Bohemia and Palante.

Zig-Zag

It was a humorous tabloid weekly that contained some fixed sections, articles, reports, advertisements and above all illustrations with social themes and political criticism. It ceased publication in 1960.

 El Pitirre

It was a publication that in 1960 initiated a radical renovation within the Cuban caricature. Its appearance constituted a rupture with the conventions that had developed in caricature in the country since its appearance in the 19th century, and which remained similar throughout the first half of the 20th century. The publication united the aesthetic revolution of caricature with the political revolution developed in the country after 1959.

Dedeté 

It was a humorous supplement of the Juventud Rebelde newspaper. It appeared on February 25, 1969.

Verde Olivo

It is the magazine of the Revolutionary Armed Forces and one of the first publications founded after the revolutionary triumph in 1959. In this publication Comandante Ernesto Che Guevara published experiences of the insurrectional struggle, which later became the book Passages of the Revolutionary War. Che also wrote for the magazine the section Advice to the Combatant and a column signed with the pseudonym The Sniper.

Palante

It is a humorous Cuban weekly that is today the oldest satirical newspaper published in Cuba and Latin America. It was founded on October 16, 1961 with the aim of cultivating the best expressions of general humor, costumbrismo and political satire. Its name comes from a slogan that existed at that time: Somos socialistas, pa'lante y pa'lante. The publication has been a faithful exponent of solidarity with the peoples in their struggle for a better world, of the battles for peace, equality, independence and sovereignty of nations, ecology and Latin American unity.
