And add visual ? What do you think teacher do man. You are saying nothing.

Because he was the first from Europe to find it. Discovery doesn't mean to be the very first person to find something. It means to find something unexpectedly, which he did. What bothers me is when explorers discover an inhabited island and then rename it and claim it as theirs.

I think he meant to say *claimed*

He never claimed he "discovered" the island....he claimed it for Spain.

A population of 30% slaves no way they brought all those people there lol they were already there

Because he was a piece of shit

I guess the only thing you need to know about Batista is that he apparently banned the Communist party. That's all you need to know about his significance and why he was removed.

Yup

lol you call Batista oppressive? How about the other guy that ruled like a king for 32 years.

Who’s trying to overthrow the current Cuban government?

gelasio88 I’d totally call the guy that permitted slavery under his watch oppressive. They were both pieces of shit. You can’t go around trashing Castro without also mentioning the piece of garbage that ruled before him.

Fun fact: Castro was a murderer who would in-prison people for 10 years just for disagreeing with him. He also practically starved of the whole country. Also, Nelson Mandela was a communist.

Mandela is was another fool did don,t know that Fidel Castro have in Cuba the worse apartheid that soun África with the black population. See how retarder the black América are they don't know the Cuba the racism is institucional agaen to the Black population. Black in Cuba are are forbidden to Walk in the street, they can not enter to the bars, Hotels, restaurant, Beach, and Hospital only for tourist. More 100.000 afrocubans ara slaves cuting marabú in 229 Prison of maximal seguriti, and 5,000 concentration camps, that mean They are the bigger plantation of the black Slave population in the world. See how fool you are black Américan that become the supor the most racist people in the World.

I thought he was a time traveller

@MarioRodriguez-pd6lp They were father and son.

from the wikipedia page. i just read it and in some parts its word for word

Ramirez is a Spanish last name...so is Rojas. There are no more pure blooded natives in Cuba, and very few of their actual traditions remain.

Ramírez is a Spanish-language patronymic surname of Germanic origin, meaning "son of Ramiro". Its correct spelling in Spanish is with an acute accent on the i, which is often omitted in English writing. It is the 28th most common surname in Spain.

Rojas Surname Definition: One with red or rust-colored hair. Ancient surname found in Burgos and Andalusia, and originating in Santander. Name of village near Burgos. Equivalent to name Roxas, derived from latin "russus," meaning red, ruby color, reddish, as referring to complexion

I'd believe it.

That's because there's a lot of we the Cuban people outside of Cuba hoping to liberate it from Communism and one day return to our stolen homeland where for 62 years dreams die before they have a chance to be born.

Youll noever hear about it but viva la revolution

Reforms were made because the people of cuba are getting fed up of the government. The cuban government is utterly corrupt, more information via the internet is getting into cuba and people there can finally see what its like everywhere else. I lived there for 11 years, tourists get a very warped view of what it means to be cuban.

and just so you know those sanctions came after castro STOLE all private property from the people of cuba and others who had invested there

​@@Quebolayque venture capitalists are evil and contribute to colonialism why would the leader of a counry subject the people to that. Batista did under a U.S. backed dictatorship which clearly created poor living conditions for everyone but white american investors and the bourgeoisie class.

How would allowing wage theft under capitalism and allowing imperialists to run the country be just in comparison to reallocation of money towards government-run programs and subsidies

Hatuey (/ɑːˈtweɪ/), also Hatüey (/ˌɑːtuˈeɪ/; died February 2, 1512), was a Taíno cacique (chief) originally from the island of Hispaniola, who lived in the early sixteenth century and fled to Cuba during the Spanish conquest. He has attained legendary status for leading a group of natives in a fight against the invading Spaniards, and thus becoming one of the first fighters against colonialism in the New World.

His son I believe.

💀

The thing is is that Cuba was already a country before it became a country. When Cespedes, freed his slaves and initiated the cause of his revolution. He created something known as “la republica en armas” or the republic in arms. Which basically had its presidents and leaders and even had its own constitution; which many Cubans followed and joined so basically, Tomas Palma was never really Cuba “first” president.

they do...but all in this videos were lies from the government

Not surprising since they also barely even teach American history in American schools anymore. It's constantly being rewritten and whitewashed to teach a narrative version of history. They might as will call it Woke History instead of American History.

This info is shit anyway. Batista was a literal fascist and a nazi sympathizer. They also make Cuba seem as if it’s an impoverished malnourished and uneducated wasteland when cuba has an export on medical professionals, has some of the best medical education globally, is number one in Latin America interns of education, has some of the best and totally free healthcare, and has almost completely eradicated illiteracy. But this video only talks about the negatives.

@@gggfightklub8449 Batista was a fascist but he was right winged. There is no comparison whatsoever to the left wing NAZI's (German Socialist Worker's Party.) Batista did not seek to exterminate any group of people. He just didn't want leftists communists taking over the Cuban government. Cuba is an impoverished, malnourished, uneducated (unless indoctrination counts as an education these days), wasteland. I was born there, I have been back since leaving. It's even worse now than what it was then. As impossible as that was to believe until I saw it for myself. Cuba produces nothing. The doctors it trains don't have the tools they need, often you can't fill any of your prescriptions at state run pharmacies you have to buy them off people on the streets on the black market. And hope you are getting what they say. Everything failing is blamed on the embargo. I have to things to say to that. First, almost everything we buy in the US comes from China. It's hard to find products actually made in the US or Europe. China could care less about the embargo. Why isn't Cuba purchasing their supplies from China like everyone else? Huh..... Second, if Cuba's future and economy depended on capitalism from the US, then it was doomed from the start. What was the point of a communist revolution that whines about it's failures by blaming it on not having access to capitalist trappings. They should be happy to be free of our capitalist trappings. Huh.... Remember Castro failed in his first attempt to overthrow the Cuban government in 1953, he was tried and sentenced. If Batista had been a Nazi like minded individual, or anything like the murderous Castro brothers, Castro would have never left prison alive to try to overthrow the government again. He would have never seen the light of day again. It's a shame that he did live. It's sad how easily people show their ignorance and lack of knowledge and understanding of history and events. Cuba's free healthcare and educational system pre-dates the communist revolution by a lot. It was not communism that brought free education and free healthcare to the Cuban people. But it was communism that has destroyed it where what we have left is an educational system of leftist indoctrination camps and a healthcare system where most of our facilities for the average person are dilapidated and unsanitary. Where modern medical equipment often is unavailable or broken, where filling a simple antibiotic prescription at a pharmacy is a near impossibility and you have a better chance of buying it at much higher prices on the black market or going without it and die. Where did you indoctrinate your rosy fictional fantasy of Cuba that you described? I was born there, I lived it, I have been back since and seen it actually worsen. Your rosy fantasy is a complete fabrication and a lie. It is Cuban communist propaganda. The very few comforts, luxuries and perks that exist are for the people high up in the government, for foreign dignitaries, for tourists with USD, EUROS, CADS to spend, and for Cuban exiles returning to visit their families with USD, EUROS, CADS in their pockets who can enjoy comforts that no average Cuban living on the island can afford.

@It ́s not what you think Unfortunately these indoctrinated automatons are everywhere. They are like locusts and they destroy everything, everywhere they go. They build nothing, they produce nothing, but they think they are entitled to everything that successful hard working citizens have worked and earned for themselves. I fear that what has become of Cuba is doomed to be the future of the US as well.

@@GrothendiecksWishguajiro Is a Arawak word.

@Gabby Bennett You really don’t seem to have dived deep into history, because if you had you probably wouldn’t be making the statements you are. A lot of people just like to label all “black” people as African when that’s not the case. Also do you know where the people who were slaves were prior, they were in Europe and prior to that do you know. If you did it would make more sense to you. Also if you have two people groups who know nothing about a crop or how to farm that crop because it’s not known to either the slave or the kidnappers as it wasn’t their crop either how do you know the agronomy of how to get that crop to thrive. How do you know the soil or acidity or any other thing such as how much water etc. You wouldn’t take two people groups from foreign places to plant a crop that both are unfamiliar with. It’s common sense, but sometimes common sense isn’t always common.

Little to late for that.
