Chargers Will Greet Kaepernick and 49er’s With Most Patriotic Pregame in History

[Janelle2002 3,865]

Yeah the Castro shirt didn't make much sense. If you're protesting people being oppressed, I think Castro would be the last guy you'd want on your t-shirt. I've heard on sports radio that he's got a new girlfriend who is an activist and might be the reason why he's decided to do this. Today he showed up at the 49ers practice wearing socks with pigs dressed as cops. I don't necessarily agree with the socks, but as far as protests go, it is on the tame side.

Many don't like Castro, due to one sided history lessons given by the U.S. although Castro oppressed the people of Cuba one must give him credit for the things he did do. The U.S.'s puppet president pimped the women of Cuba out to various political figures and presidents around the world. Yuck. None of the companies were Cuban owned and the Cubans were exploited for their labor even after slavery was so called abolished. Castro ended this, made some of the companies Cuban owned, offered much needed health care to those who'd been neglected. Let's not forget when the U.S.'s puppet president left, he left with millions, maybe billions leaving the government and people of Cuba with nothing. Because the U.S. was mad at Castro an embargo was imposed and many countries dared not touch Cuba furthering their suffering. Castro stood up to bullies, I applaud him.

Very good read. I'd forgotten about Castro's visit with Malcolm X

yeah, i found this interesting. certainly makes me think of how easy it was back then for the dog to get good and wagged.

It was the Fair Play for Cuba Committee that gave the reception for the Cubans at the Theresa on Oct. 2, 1961, not Malcolm X. My friend Berta arranged that, too.

That night, thousands of people lined the streets around the Hotel Theresa hoping to get a look at Fidel. We were on the 7th floor, and every time anyone went near the window, thousands of people on the ground would cheer.

We refused to allow any cops or reporters onto the floor. We had guards at every elevator and exit. At about nine o’clock I was told to go wait outside the Hotel for the caterer’s delivery truck. They were bringing refreshments and food. I was also told not to speak to any of the press.

As I went outside, the photo bulbs began to flash, and reporters started asking me what was going on upstairs. I just kept saying, “No comprendo.”

The next day, there it was in the headlines: “One hundred-dollar call girl at Castro reception says she ‘no comprende.’” I was astounded to be called a one-hundred-dollar call girl. I did not deserve it.

So the story in the People’s Weekly World that it was Malcolm X who arranged for the Cubans to go to the Hotel Theresa and who gave a reception for Fidel Castro and Che Guevara was untrue. I have no idea where it came from. In fact, neither Malcolm X nor Che Guevara attended the reception.

However, it was true that Malcolm X took the initiative to return the Cubans’ solidarity gesture. It was widely reported in the news media that Malcolm went to the Hotel Theresa and met with Fidel Castro. I do not know what went on, but Malcolm X was then a leader of the Nation of Islam, and it is highly unlikely that he was swayed towards socialism at that time.

However, the fact that Malcolm X did visit Fidel Castro at the Theresa had an enormous effect on the Black community of Harlem.

At any rate, Malcolm X does not need the Communist Party to make up fairy tales about him. They would do well to read Malcolm X speeches, review his real life—and acknowledge where they were wrong about Black nationalism and Malcolm X.

Why do you stay in such a despicable place

Cause it's my country. When u get mad at your child is it no longer your child? I can recognize my country's fault instead of being a blind idiot believing the u.s. can do no wrong.

If America is so bad, why do we have such a massive amount of people risking their life to try and come here.

The answer is I don't know. People do what they want.

did you forget that you were arguing that because Trump wants to make America great again that it was implied that is was not as good as it could be? The statement above now belongs to the Democrats ( at least for this cycle)
