Woman Eats off the Street in Cuba

Tonight I got a phone call from my mom, to tell me she had ran into this video at the Cuban Forum, Secretos de Cuba.

Words can't begin to describe it. An Afro-Cuban woman is literally eating off the street. After fifty years in power the communist regime can be summed up with this video.

I left Cuba 30 years ago and I can count with the fingers on one hand, how many Cubans of African descend I have met in exile. Most of them stayed behind, for the hope of a better tomorrow, but that day never came, and this so very sad image is in the end, the real legacy of the Communist Revolution!
