"Undoubtedly, I have suffered more than the rest of the exiles because nowhere along the Straits of Florida do they give me respite and few are those who understand the paradox of my life," she wrote. "For those in Cuba I am a deserter because I left and denounced the regime in place. For many in Miami I am 'persona non grata' because I am the sister of Fidel and Raul."

    maybe-later-kiddo Oh sweety did you want to use your familys power to grift and enrich yourself at the expense of the Cuban population? And you are so persecuted just because of your name.

    maybe-later-honey Best I can do is a book deal and a defense stink tank minor speaking role....on occasion. (Idk just seems standard yeonmi-park stuff.

    Didn't know Fidel had a Gusano sister. Fucking wild that siblings can turn out so incredibly different despite the same family upbringings.

    Hope she was miserable.

    Damn, who would have thought the descendants of plantation owners would be so predisposed towards judging people by their family background?

      I never knew Fidel and Raúl redistributed their own farm. I knew Fidel was a glorious class traitor but I didn’t realize to that extent.

      Unlimited respect.
