[Xmca-l] Re: "15 La era está pariendo un corazón - Omara portuondo y Martín Rojas"

[David Preiss]

Hi Henry,
This may not sound popular here, but I got tired of the double standard in
the left regarding Cuba, which is an ominous family dictatorship. Silvio
was inspiring back then in the 80s, when we were fighting Pinochet's
dictatorship here, but not now anymore, at least for me. I also happen to
know Cuban nationals, which were severely mistreated by the Cuban
government. I still enjoy listening to Silvio's music but it is hard for me
to do so without a bad taste in my mouth since he never spoke out against
the human right violations in his own country and which can't be blamed in
the USA embargo (persecution against LGTB is one example of that).
