¿Por que es Cubano propaganda escrito en Ingles?
That thought struck me when I first saw it. Cuba was America's playground in the 1950s up until the missile crisis era. There were many American businesses operating there as well as robust American tourism. I decided this propaganda was probably targeted at Americans in order to not alarm them before the communists were in position to nationalize their businesses.
I have no hard proof this picture is accurate. I ran it through tineye and it first showed up in 2018 IIRC.
My paternal grandfather was a professor and grandmother a collegiate librarian. They had some upper caste Cuban friends who were also professors at the university. They had to flee when Fidel and his army of troglodytes marched out of the Sierra Maestra and shooed Batista to Portugal. An educated, erudite, lovely couple who I witnessed get passionately spun the fuck up (in English and Español) when the high balls flowed freely and talk turned to the evils, perils and pitfalls of communism.
We could all benefit from their tales if they were still alive and posting on POAL. I'd find their experiences very interesting.
