...living as a black man in Cuba was worse than being in prison.

I don't care who you are; that, right there, is funny.

In the late 60's, a number of prominent blacks traveled to various countries in Africa, from the US.

I guess they wanted to get in touch with their "roots".

Almost all of them came back within a couple of weeks, saying, "Nope, nope, nope".

Being black in America is only bad if you don't compare it anyplace else.

I remember being in college and a student from Cuba told me she just could not understand the love for Castro and the lies about his supposed utopia heard all over campus.

One of the biggest lies is that Cuba is free of racism. Absolute crap.
