CUBAN EXILES CELEBRATING THE DEATH OF A DICTATOR

At 10:30PM, friday, November 25, 2016, Raul Castro announced the death

of his brother Fidel Castro Ruz, and The City of Miami started a celebration

that still is going on 24 hours later.

talking about what Cuba means to us...

Hispanics from all Latin America joints with the Cubans at Versailles Restaurant...

USA, Colombia, Nicaragua and Cuba...

the place was a bitter/sweet gathering with people remembering lots of pain and suffering!

I love your reporting style!

History indeed, pictures loaded with emotions.

Felicidades por tu reportage

Nice shot!!! Ufa!!! Best regards. Roldao

I think the starkness of the black background makes this shot very effective and it has an appropriateness to it. It works as a fine documentary shot. The two faces also seem to relate importantly to each other, the severity of Catro's and the more soft, gently-colored face of the man holding the newspaper.

Celebrating the death...hum, pretty primitive, but since they believe they suffered under his rule very understandable!

 

Keep registering life, mi amigo!

You previously have shown on quite a few occasions that the use of a series of images helps to tell a story more effectively than a single one. Here the series documents Castro's death, but it also does much more.  It documents years of frustration and sorrow of the Cuban community, especially. Best of all, it expresses their hope for the future.

 

Viva Cuba Libre!

 

Great shot. A day to remember!

i know it doesn't seem like that in Miami, but he was a huge (largely fictional) hero in much of the world. best, jamie

A historical moment!

Very good framing!

Congratulations for your excellent documental work Jorge.

Deseo lo mejor para Cuba en general y para ti en particular. Un fuerte abrazo.

a piece of history great moment in time a new begining

It certainly has been a Historical few months. I can't imagine the mixture of feelings the Cubans in Miami and probably all over the States have felt. Good shot Jorge.
