Just found out the fantastic Sharon Jones of the Dap Kings died earlier this week after long and brave battle with cancer, great band, helluva soul songstress.



Listening to the Dap Kings makes your life better, 'tis scientific fact like.

I find capitalism repugnant. It is filthy, it is gross, it is alienating... because it causes war, hypocrisy and competition.
Fidel Castro

To some he will be a hero, an icon next to Che Guevara, to others he will be remembered as that cigar chomping commie beardface. But he stood up to America and stood by his people and was true to his beliefs.
R.I.P.

And he removed a disgustingly brutal regime, one that US supported no doubt, I wonder how successful his regime could have been without the US attempts to destroy their economy

A revolution is not a trail of roses.… A revolution is a fight to the death between the future and the past.
RIP Fidel.
 
I wonder how he will be remembered? Can't wait for trumps tweet on the matter

As a great reformer who stood up to American imperialism.

As an aside, people characterise Cuba as some sort of basket case, but their children are light years ahead of ours in terms of numeracy and literacy.

Cuba does okay for a country without huge reserves of oil or gas and a minuscule population.
