Hating the opression of Fulgencio Batista's government, Almeida joined Fidel Castro, encouraging his brother to do the same. Esteban did so, but only out of loyalty and the promise of a monopoly on organised crime. Ramon remained unaware of this until after the revolution, and following this the two became estranged.

When the revolution succeeded, Ramon was awarded a position in Castro's new cabinet after he is joined Almeida crime family in 1950.
