The acclaimed Cuban singer Aymée Nuviola shared a heartfelt message on her social media, reflecting on the current situation in Venezuela and addressing her fellow Cubans. "I made a video some time ago where I mentioned that people were criticizing me or demanding that I say the intolerable phrase Díaz-Canel... (expletive), to show my opposition to the Cuban dictatorship. I simply said that I wasn't going to use such foul language," Nuviola began in her video shared on Instagram.
The purpose of her introduction was to highlight the situation in Venezuela and ask, "When have you ever seen María Corina Machado and the people around her use foul language?"
Nuviola emphasized that such language has not been used by Venezuelan opposition leaders facing Maduro, not even to gain leadership, prestige, or public support for their calls to protest.
A Call for Respectful Protest
The artist continued to highlight the qualities that make these opposition leaders an example for the world, especially for Cubans, urging them to follow the example of the Venezuelan people.
"People from all social strata, all types of education, are united in their goal: to remove the Maduro dictatorship and be free," she noted.
In her message, Nuviola stressed that although not everyone thinks the same way, they all understand that the main objective is to remove Maduro and that Venezuela must be free.
Nuviola's words come after attending an event last Saturday in support of electoral legitimacy in Venezuela, violated by the fraudulent Nicolás Maduro, held at Bayfront Park in Miami. The event was attended not only by Venezuelans but also by people from other countries residing in the United States.
"They're motivated to support them because they see an entire nation in the streets of Venezuela, demanding their rights in a dignified and brave manner. There have been people who disappeared, who were murdered, kidnapped, but the people are there, without using foul language or disrespect," she pointed out.
Addressing Cubans directly, she said, "Think before you speak. The tongue is like the rudder of a ship, steering it where it wants to go, as the Bible says. When we start using it like a whip, speaking nonsense and vulgarities, who will take us seriously in the world?"
"The world now supports Venezuela because they see the example of a brave and respectful people," Nuviola affirmed.
The video has received widespread support for Aymée's statement, a beloved and award-winning artist within the Cuban community in the United States. "I hope my point is clear and that Cubans learn from it because we need it," she concluded.
