miami-cuba

WOULD YOU GO BACK?
What started out as a personal photographic project shooting aspects of Cuban culture in Miami, FL soon became something much bigger. In trying to establish where the center of modern Cuban culture is today, in Miami or in Cuba, the exploration went beyond still photography. Cuban Americans are asked if they would ever go back to Cuba - even if it is just for a visit. This is what they had to say. (New version with new title design as of 3/2/10)

Ok. Affirmative action was targeted to assist BLACK americans in getting employed. The cubans who are in miami were either already educated in cuba before coming to the us or got their education here and racked up high student loans like everyone else. The vast majority of cubans in the us NEVER had welfare because we worked for a living, Wetback is a term used for mexicans, you stupid asshole. BTW my parents came here in 1959..so fuck you fucking faggot tard.

@lolacastellano13 Yea, it's called "affirmative action" ! We have to give them a job because their country of origin as apposed to giving the job to the best suited person. Believe me...we had all of the aforementioned professions before you started rafting it to out once beautiful S. Florida!!!! Go collect your welfare wetback!!!

@MegaRaidersrule racist shit? U mean white cubans feel like the anglo americans dont like them? Dont hold your breath. i think youre confusing cubans with puerto ricans or blacks. Youre sorely mistaken.

@167Cactus You seem to have forgotten how many surgeons, politicians, police officers, teachers, scientists and business owners are cuban too. Fuck you. Cubans are awesome!

Lets talk about how many Americans these scumbags killed, raped and robbed. Miami was once a beautiful place to visit. Now, these low-life's have made it the second most violent city in the NATION! You can't turn the news on without seeing how one of these scumbags negatively affected the community. I wish the gulf stream flowed in the opposite direction so the scum would have washed up on another countries shore. But, to their credit, they have perfected medicare FRAUD!
