Elizabeth Rodriguez, at a tender age of 21, isn’t much into government—here in the U.S. or in Cuba, where her parents emigrated from. She hadn’t heard about the news today that Fidel Castro had stepped down, a move that has Cubans there and here abuzz.

The La Teresita hostess says she has relatives in Cuba still and she keeps in touch with them. She was born here and is a U.S. citizen.

“I think it’s good” that Castro has abdicated, she says. “But I don’t really follow politics.”
