Article

Granma ( Spanish pronunciation: [ˈɡɾamma]) is the official newspaper of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba. It was formed in 1965 by the merger of two previous papers, Revolución (IPA: [reboluˈsjon]; lit. 'Revolution') and Hoy (IPA: [ˈoi]; lit. 'Today'). Publication of the newspaper began in February 1966. Its name comes from the yacht Granma that carried Fidel Castro and 81 other rebels to Cuba's shores in 1956, launching the Cuban Revolution. The newspaper has been a way for the Cuban Communist Party to communicate their ideology to the world, especially regarding the United States. Marta Rojas worked for the paper since its founding.
