Okay, the media failed supremely in not realizing Americans could elect an empty-headed, knee-jerk liar as President. But, still, I say the greatest media shortcoming of the past half century was not recognizing that Fidel Castro was the most dedicated and powerful proponent of racial justice the world has ever known.

A white leader of a country with a 71% black majority is a champion of racial equality? Where are the blacks in his government?
Oh, I dunno.
Fidel was for all races being equal....
All equally slaves to their communist state.
“I got my job through the NY Times “- Fidel Castro.
Duh Phuket you say?
I have a friend from Cuba, Black as coal and one of the nicest guys you could ever meet.
He told me how segregated Cuba is and how blacks are are part of a caste society in Cuba.
There is literally no racial homogeny in Cuba, with blacks living only with other blacks.
This article is fiction.
Castro was an equal opportunity tyrant. You might be white or black, but you are equal in terms of misery. BS article.

“Batista was born in the town of Veguita, located in the municipality of Banes, Cuba, province of Holguín, in 1901, to Belisario Batista Palermo and Carmela Zaldívar González, who had fought in the Cuban War of Independence. He was of Spanish, African and Chinese descent.”
I confess I never knew Batista was a high mulatte
Sort of a Chavez
I knew Fidel was I think Galician ethnic
A Spanish celt
I can tell anyone cares the whites mostly left Cuba
No doubt of that
