In Doral, Florida – nicknamed 'Little Venezuela' – anxiety hangs thick in the air as residents grapple with how escalating U.S. military pressure on Venezuela could reshape their lives thousands of miles away. 🏙️
Over cafecitos and arepas, families debate whether tougher sanctions or potential conflict might cut ties with relatives back home or disrupt remittances that keep kitchens stocked. 'We left chaos to build stability here,' says one bakery owner, 'but now Washington’s moves make us relive old fears.'
With over 52% of Doral’s population claiming Venezuelan heritage, the city has become a political microcosm. Some support stronger U.S. action against Maduro’s government, while others warn of unintended consequences. 'This isn’t just about Caracas,' notes a local student organizer. 'It’s about whether our community becomes collateral damage.'
