LOL. Knowing a few people means nothing. I mean there were some black people that voted for Trump and like him. That doesn't mean that most black people support Trump or like him. 90% of black people voted for Hillary Clinton and despise Donald Trump.

And in that same fashion you might know a few black Cubans that dislike Castro. That is not true for the overwhelming majority.

Here is a BBC interview featuring a black Cuban poet living in London talking about how he remembers Fidel Castro: https://vimeo.com/193317955

He says basically what I said. Before Fidel, Cuba was a racist apartheid state. After Fidel, black people were given more opportunity. De Jure racial discrimination was officially ended. Black people were given the right to free education and healthcare. Life improved dramatically. Was it perfect? No. Is there still alot of racism in the country? Yes. But all in all, life under Castro was an incredible improvement for black people in Cuba.

1. Is that 90% of all black people or 90% of the black people who voted? I ask because Trump got something like 14% or more of the black vote.

2. If Cuba is such a great place for black people why did that poet leave?

Hey, Castro might have outlawed racism and leveled the playing field for blacks but he did so by making everyone poor and enslaving them to the state.

That's the liberal mindset here. They don't raise people up, they want to lower everyone in the name of equality.

Its interesting. Statistically, the overwhelming amount of charitable support for blacks in this country and the issues they face come from white, conservative donors. Join the revolution.

Its also interesting, statistically, the overwhelming amount of violent death blacks in this country and the issues they face comes from blacks killing and robbing blacks. Yet, instead of Black Lives Matter being made something every person of every color in America can get behind to help stop thousands more killings than those killed by police. But noooo, instead, it's just one more militant fringe black group.

Please, ALL Lives Matter. Every single one.

Only 8% of black people voted got Trump. Stop trying to inflate that racist's vote count. http://www.cnn.com/election/results/exit-polls

And that 8% is in line with the amount that typically vote Republicans. This is the group typically referred to as "coons" by the greater black community.

Probably the same reason alot of Cubans left the island after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Better economic opportunity. Thanks to the United States economic blockade against Cuba, life for Cubans took a turn for the worst after the collapse of their big brother the Soviet Union.

And FYI I would rather be poor and treated with respect in my country than be poor and treated like a second class citizen. Regardless of how much you want to blame everything wrong with Cuba on Castro, life got better for black Cubans after Castro than before. PERIOD. And that is a fact.

89% of African Americans did not vote for Clinton. Low turnout.

You really think there are black people that didn't vote that support Trump? LOL.

Most black that don't vote hate Trump more than those who voted. They're in that Colin Karpernick class. They don't think either party cares about black issues.

You think it's impossible for a black man to be as knowledge and eloquent about world affairs as I am?

Well then go right ahead. This only exposes your latent racism.

Black on black violence is the result of poverty and inequality in this country.

Police violence on black bodies is state sanctioned violence.

Two completely different things. You can't appeal to poor people in desperate situations to not be poor anymore or be desperate. That is a problem the government must solve by improving the living conditions of black people in this country.

But we can appeal to our government to not kill us anymore. That is why black lives matter exists. To stop the government from killing it's own citizens.

Black Lives matter is a domestic terrorist organization whose sole purpose is to spread hate and violence. Do you really think BLM wants to help black people?

Yes. Most black people feel the same way I do about Castro, Trump, and whatever other racial topic we've discussed.

Only about 10% of the black community is in the self-hating fox news right wing camp.

This explains just about every problem in the black community.

What the hell are you talking about? All I'm saying is that black america was not such a boon to the democrat party this year. I don't know about you, but I consider it a good sign. It just sucks that it took someone as bad as HRC and that it came against someone as useless as Trump.

There are poor whites. Actually more poor whites than there are poor blacks

If poverty is directly related to violence, why is there not more whites killed by gun violence than blacks?

Or could it be a result of a breakdown in the family unit within the black community?

Could it be directly related to two generations who have decided that belonging to a gang and protecting drug and gang turf is more important than somebodies life?
