I hope someone can see the irony of a piece honoring Fidel Castro for his work on “freedom,” while in practice he never once held free and fair elections, created a one state party and jailed or killed people who wouldn’t fall in line. That’s quite a brand of freedom you got there.

Also, the Cuban government got whiter since he took power. And look it up: the most prominent Cuban dissidents are black. Your burning need to praise him as a visionary undermines the lifelong struggle of the very people you claim that he already saved.
