I love all of Natalia’s songs, and I am so glad for this one. But I would like to make a point that I have stopped reading this paper because it acts as though only Cuba has political prisoners, whereas the United States has a much higher percentage with male Blacks being incarcerated at 25% of their population.
Another point I would like to make is that with President Trump’s more than 200 sanctions in 2016 against Cuba, the seed for emigration to the United States grew to the point that he has a lot of responsibility for perhaps a million and a half Cubans leaving the island. There were other contributors, but now, after being a partial cause of the problem, he is kicking them out. Pardon my language. He is putting the Cubans who saught refuge from lack of food, transportation, electricity, medical help back to the country where they had nothing to come back to.
My sincere apologies if I ask you a way to unsubscribe from this paper.
