[edit] Absolutely terrible article
Did the CIA write this article? It is utterly lacking in neutrality, and not surprisingly is written from a very biased pro-capitalist, pro USA perspective. Not surprisingly it is locked, so anybody well informed on the topic cannot correct the propaganda on this shit article. This is a great example of why Wikipedia is a piece of shit when it comes to unbiased, honest research and writing. This article must be written by all the Cuban exiles squatting, angrily in Miami since they got kicked off the island they ran like a slave labor camp, an oligarchy. Absolutely awful article here, really reflects poorly on Wikipedia that this shit is passed of like encyclopaedic information. I doubt anyone from Cuba has written anything here. Again, right wing Americans and neo-cons wrote this rubbbish article.
- Wake up. Cubans from Cuba have no chance to write anything here, as the illegal communist terror "government" based in Havana doesnt allow them to access Wikipedia. --maxval (talk) 16:19, 5 February 2012 (UTC)
[edit] French Haiti's Slave Revolt and the affect on Cuba
In 1804 black slaves gained there freedom in a sucessful revolt in haiti, many wealthy french plantation owners fled to cuba in the years following. There had been few african slaves in cuba before 1804 and it was many former owners of plantations in haiti whom began to popularise the slave trade in cuba. The plantation owners also began to grow sugar in cuba.The Spanish when first settling cuba planned for vinyards however the humidity meant grapes would strugle to grow with the sugar plantations started by the french rum (rum is made from boiling sugar) became a large industry in Cuba, and still is today however little sugar is grown in cuba because during the second half of the last century the were bad harvests, so most cuban rum is made from imported sugar. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rhinnodanny1 (talk • contribs) 20:33, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
[edit] List of Cubans
Under "See Also" there is a link titled "List of Cubans". Reading that gives the impression it lists all Cubans. Should the link be changed to something more like "List of notable and well-known Cubans", as is seen in the linked article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.222.139.90 (talk) 04:29, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
