The Cuban people are hurting. Food is in short supply and some are on the verge of starvation. The virus is rampant and there is a severe shortage of syringes to administer vaccines. Pharmacies are virtually empty. The people are innocent victims, and are being held hostage by cruel and cynical forces over which they have no control.
When I watch the demonstrations in Miami, I ask myself: Where is this all headed? Is harming the Cuban people a way to bring about positive change or does it just lead to greater suffering.
