The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People plans to open an office in Havana.
"Cuba likes the idea of an NAACP chapter established there, and we are very open to it," said Hilary Shelton, director of the NAACP's Washington office. "We have no timeline on this and haven't set a date to open the office."

Castro foes both here and in Cuba have urged black leaders to consider the enormous number of black Cuban dissidents.There's considerable prejudice against black Cubans, but of course the NAACP is there to support Communism and trash the U.S., and to hell with actual black people. Words fail me!

The office has always been there but is now comng out of the closet. The Cuba office was the foreign end of the Marxist underground railroad.

"I have never heard of Kweisi Mfume trying to improve the lives of blacks under the Castro regime." I have never heard of Queasy Foomey trying to improve the lives of black people anywhere!

"No matter what the census says, Cuba is a black majority nation."
Well damn, whoever will the NAACP blame the plight of blacks in Cuba on if they are the majority? I'm sure somehow it will be white Americans who are to blame for Cuban blacks plight. Coudn't have anything to do with the LATINO COMMUNIST dictator.
