      “When they control the information, they can bend it all they want.” Anger is the most naive and manipulatable emotion, people don’t seem to understand that a liar can pretend to be angry if he thinks he is taking followers along with him/her.

      I felt the same way! I felt it in my soul that it was not telling the truth nor the full stories.
      I have been doing research for the past 10 years on world history. Yes, we were lied to about the history of the Americas and the world. We have been lied to about our identity. Lies on top of lies based on racism. It brought all kinds of emotions at first that I'm still dealing with.

    This battle upsets me as a German American Granddaughter, if I made an exhibit on Volksmusik in both Eastern Europe and the Americas I would not eliminate the topic of xenophobia, the Music Industry complex, and conflicts like World Wars One and Two, the Iron Curtain, and the Red Scare because all these experiences belong to German and German-speaking Americans and other Eastern Europen immigrants and migrants. I would not only tell the story of my family fleeing the Thrid Riche but other families, famous musicians, and the conflicts they had to deal with because of their heritage and identity. In Ken Burns's Jazz, Brandon Marcelis stresses that we can't talk about Jazz without talking about slavery, racism, and white privilege. All German Americans should fight for all immigrant and migrant stories to be told accurately not like a Disney Cartoon.

    Always remember, there really are no "Latinos" outside of the US. This is a reductive demographic term in its modern iteration, invented, like "hispanic", by the US govt. There are Mexicans, Nicaraguans, Colombians, Cubans, Bolivians, etc. They are bound by linguistic commonality and other shared/similar cultural features. Consider how (if and) when the media references events in Kenya, Nigeria, Gabon it uses "Africans", which is also reductive.

    I have noticed that history is changing. Maybe its Hollywoods version of history that is affecting our view of history. Foe example, Disney made a movie about the Jamestown Colony and in the movie it shows Captain John Smith falling madly in love with Pocahontas. Which is a lie. But the children who watch this movie won't know that. Pocahontas was baptized Rebecca' and married John Roulf they had a son named Tom. Captain John Smith was an older man who had a wife and 10 children in England. The message is that we can no longer believe everything we learn from movies or anything on the internet, unless it's a reliable source of information... like Wikipedia or?

    3:25 - This actually is more accurate since Fidel _did_ kick out the Batista's surrounding colonial oligarchy/mafia/plantation owners ie the excesses of the capitalist class, the unstated implication of course is that this "dictatorship" was somehow bad/unpopular or whatever which is not the case for the vast majority of the population. This was famously called the "golden exile" for precisely this reason. To the extent that "economic hardships" - also implied to be a universal result of the revolution - plagues the country, it can easily be linked to the grotesque US sanctions still in effect to this day (despite the approval of only 2 nation-states at the annual UN vote to condemn such sanctions - usually veto'd by only the US and Israel, shocker...).
    The state department memo justifying the goals for the initial embargo approved in 1960, continued under sanction policy today lays this out in no uncertain terms:
    _"Salient considerations respecting the life of the present Government of Cuba are:_
    *_1._*_ The majority of Cubans support Castro (the lowest estimate I have seen is 50 percent)._
    *_2._*_ There is no effective political opposition._
    *_3._*_ Fidel Castro and other members of the Cuban Government espouse or condone communist influence._
    *_4._*_ Communist influence is pervading the Government and the body politic at an amazingly fast rate._
    *_5._*_ Militant opposition to Castro from without Cuba would only serve his and the communist cause._
    *_6._*_ The only foreseeable means of alienating internal support is through disenchantment and disaffection based on economic dissatisfaction and hardship._
    _If the above are accepted or cannot be successfully countered, it follows that every possible means should be undertaken promptly to weaken the economic life of Cuba. If such a policy is adopted, it should be the result of a positive decision which would call forth a line of action which, while as adroit and inconspicuous as possible, makes the greatest inroads in denying money and supplies to Cuba, to decrease monetary and real wages, to bring about hunger, desperation and overthrow of government."_

    The history of so many countries are altered in favor of the conquerors that invaded them. The very terminology used to describe to atrocities of these invaders soften the true wickness conquerors are guilty of. Apartheid is a word used to softened the concept of isolating the original people of south africa from the invaders who took their country from them. Ethnic cleansing is a term used to soften and lessen the degree of wickedness that is more accurately described as the barbaric act of the cold blooded
    mass murder of millions of innocent people by barbarian attackers out to dehumanize a people and steal their land and natural resources. Colonization sounds like the act of building a city on vacant land with no owner, when in fact it the act of stealing land from its owners and forcing them off their land so invaders can build their own society and force the indigenous people to accept rule by a group of heathenistic barbarians. But Almighty God sees these things as what they are. outrageous sins against Him and all nations. He will punish those who are guilty of such wickedness who refuse to repent and reconcile with their victims.
    Remember the scriptures say God punishes to the third and fourth generation those who defy him.Exodus 34:7, Exodus 20:13,
    Exodus 20:15, Nahum 1:3. And if you desire forgiveness consider reparations, for mercy covers a multitude of sins 1Peter 4:8.

      Latino refers to people from Latin America and Hispanic refers to people who speak Spanish. These terms don't have anything to do with race or ethnicity, they're umbrella terms. It's mostly Americans that see them as racial categories.
      From your other comment, Aboriginal (capitalized) refers to indigenous Australians.

    I went to this exhibit a little less than a year ago. I was curious about how much of the Leftist movements would be covered. There was good stuff there, and I recommend people see it. But I saw that Cuba section, and immediately thought this exhibit was heavily propagandized.
    How much of Black history should be covered was also hotly contested when the National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC) was being developed. Those curators and historians eventually decided that if we don’t tell the full story of African Americans in this country, we are not telling the full story. NMAAHC is now one of the most popular museums on the National Mall. The fully story of Latinos should be told. We share a common history of cooption, appropriation, dilution of our Leftist politics, and erasure. Stand up for the truth and let people decide for themselves.

      ​@@Jose-sy1je well i share his skepticism as a white complexioned Puerto Rican. By the few shots of the display dealing with PR, it is glaringly clear the presentation has an outsized Afro-Caribbean centering narrative. Colorism in the Caribbean and rest of Spanish speaking Americas is a well known dynamic, as is the history of Africans in Puerto Rican Island culture (which is distinct from the african american aligning one of the diaspora puerto ricans). but it hardly encompasses the totality of the history.
      This presentation isn't inclusive in the least, so it's not surprising it's getting pushback. Afro Caribbeans have a legit grievance, but don't hijack the narrative by claiming speaking license for the entire Hispanic experience. I think that's what the exhibit misses the mark on. Chastising me and concocting some accusation of enjoying so called "privilege" of being Anglo passing in the states is not gonna win you any allies among us white Hispanics. We belong too, and will push right back at ya for insinuating that insufferably banal true scot fallacy that the only real Latino is a mestizo or mulato complexioned, and by implication whitey-opressed, latino.
