  1. This documentary is amazing. I love reading up on the history of Miami, and I have NEVER heard 90% of this stuff before. Incredible history, and the documentary is very well made. I WANT TO BUY IT. Also, it’s great to see that, as in The Lost City, we get to hear and see history beyond 1958. Cuba was a much better place than it is now, but it wasn’t without corruption and oppression. Fidel is just another of a long line of opportunists. The only difference is, as my dad says, he’s the only one who entered into the homes of the Cuban people and divided the families. But we not only had a long line of opportunists. We also have a rich heritage of people who stood against the oppressors, and defended justice and freedom. And that, among other things (family, mojo, sofrito, arroz con frijoles, cigars, etc…), makes me proud of my heritage.

  2. I loved it and learned a lot. Thanks for posting it Val and thanks and congratulations to those who put it together. On a personal note, the last time I was at the Stadium Pink Floyd’ s pig sprung a leak and was flapping wildly in the wind over the crowd.

  3. Great documentary. I remember going to the stadium to see the old timer’s games with my uncle.

    Cuba Indoctrinates; the Left listens; and the Right helps them « Life Through the Lens of Bryan
    bryanjohnsonblog.com
    In 2010, pressure, both domestic and international, has been exerted upon Cuba’s government to stop its perpetual abuse of the Human Rights of its citizens. From my observations, the nascent blogger movement has created an outlet of information that heretofore was not available. … Y YO SEGUIR CONTESTANDOLE A ESTE TAL MR JOHNSON QUE ES EL QUE ESTA DAñANDO EL POTENCIAL DE LA LIBERTAD DE CUBA Y HABLANDO MAL DE BABALU BLOG!

  6. I knew it Maria Alina I knew it, I freaking knew,

    I could smell that Bryan Johnson character from where was coming from the very first moment he started posting on Babalu.

    I knew he had a hidden agenda from the very first moment he posted by the way he expressed himself.

    That why I immediately jumped on his ass, and surely he didn’t like it and he sort of kept it hidden in his posts because he did not wanted to fully reveal himself or his agenda to us.

    Gosh, I’m so glad to be proven that my instincts did not betray me.

    Thanks Maria Alina, thanks a lot.

    Val/George,

    I just visited Brian’s website, and confirmed what Maria Alina just informed us (please read it for yourself). Look at all the attacks he took on Babalu and George and look why he was trying to insert the gay agenda in the other post.

    And Brian if you’re reading this post your hypocritical two face bastard.

    Go fuck yourself you asshole, MARICON, PENDEJO.

    Please Val, ban this Brian asshole from Babalu, he surely earned it, THANKS.

    “Maria, el unico agenda q tengo es derechos humanos por todos humanos(incluyendog ente LGBT), sin discriminacion. Ud. puede no estar de acuerdo con lo que escribi, pero tengo el derecho para decirlo. ”

    Thanks again for bringing it to our attention.
