The United States like other colonized countries: Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa and all of Latin America from Mexico to Tierra del Fuego, do not have a good record of treating the Native people they found in the New World when they arrived here fleeing FAMINE and terror of Persecution.(much like what is happening across the Mediterranean sea and the Rio Bravo/Grande border with Mexico).
The United States of America or Mexico or Brasil were inhabited by nations from time immemorial and certainly longer than their ancestors had inhabited their territories. Did you know that Spanish is only 1800 years old ? So far they have found archeological ruins as old as 36 000 years ...
So it was with great satisfaction that I read how Fidel Castro, during his struggle against the tyranny of Batista and then the success of the Cuban Revolution, helped a small tribe, left destitute by the uncaring attitudes and disdain of the American people of Florida and Washington who had taken over their land.
