Granma 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 (from Spanish: "Revolution") and Hoy ("Today").^[1] Publication of the newspaper began in February 1966.^[2] 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.^[3] The newspaper has been a way for the Cuban Communist Party to communicate their ideology to the world, especially regarding the United States.^[4] Marta Rojas worked for the paper since its founding.
