Videos posted on social media show Cubans young and old calling for “liberty,” and chanting “Down with the dictatorship” and “Down with communism.” There’s a reason they’re not crying out things more like, “We hate the America” and “U.S. sucks.” You would have to attend a BLM rally for that.

“Cuba has historically demonstrated solidarity with oppressed peoples of African descent,” the group wrote — praising it for “protecting black revolutionaries” like Assata Shakur, the former Black Panther who fled prison in 1979 while serving life for the execution-style murder of a New Jersey state trooper.
