Fidel+Castro

Feidel Castro was born in 1926. Castro led a revolution because of the massive amount of American influence. He was expelled July 26, 1953 after a failed attack on a military barracks. When he came back he founded the 26th of July movement and overthrew the corrupt government using guerilla tactics and propaganda. He searched for US support after his successful overthrow but did not receive it. In response to this he joined with the Soviet Union. He also initiated many land reforms and social reforms making the government more like a communist government. The US government tried to overthrow Fidel using Cuban exiles during The Bay of Pigs. Fidel Catro has handed power over to his brother and fellow revolutionary Raul Castro.
