Re “Obama lifts all limits on relatives’ Cuba visits,” April 14
I thought the Supreme Court’s decision in Brown vs. Board of Education determined that separate is not equal -- yet the Obama administration orders that some American citizens can visit Cuba whenever they wish and spend whatever money they wish to while there, but the rest of us will continue to be treated as unsophisticated children who may be beguiled by all the evil boogeymen in Cuba.
Yet we supposedly want the Cubans to have more freedom.
John Hope Franklin, the recently deceased historian, said that understanding the American habit of fighting for liberty abroad while continuing to restrict it at home was a “struggle” for him.
Not for me. It is hypocrisy, plain and clear.
