He took power in 1959, at the head of the joyful, raucous, and brash Cuban Revolution, which was immediately placed under siege by Washington. Castro almost outlasted 11\u00a0US presidents\u2014Eisenhower, Kennedy, LBJ, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush I, Clinton, Bush II, and passing in the waning days of Obama\u2019s last term. Perhaps he just couldn\u2019t bear the thought of President Donald Trump. Having been sanctimoniously lectured by all 11\u00a0US presidents on what constitutes proper democratic procedure, he might have thought Trump, about to take office with a\u00a0minority of the vote and with significant voter suppression, a vindication.\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>I doubt it. In recent years, since he gave up power to his brother Ra\u00fal, Castro has dedicated himself to writing lengthy thought pieces, many of them on global warming, war, the fascism of neoliberalism, poverty, and other threats to humanity. Castro was a famous optimist and an irrepressible strategist, finding ways out of the grimmest situations (such as helping to nurture the coming to power of an electoral left in Latin America, which ended Cuba\u2019s post<span>\u2013<\/span>Cold War geopolitical isolation). His good friend the late Gabriel Garc\u00eda M\u00e1rquez once said Castro was a \u201csore loser\u201d who would not rest until he was able to \u201cinvert the terms of the situation and convert defeat into a victory.\u201d But, after having dodged by some counts 639 assassination attempts by Washington, Castro is finally at rest. The nightmare of Trump might have been a US president too far.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s going to be a lot said about him in the coming days, and hopefully the recent thaw between Obama and Ra\u00fal Castro will permit a more generous assessment than what otherwise would have been on offer. A good starting place, for those wanting to go beyond the obits, would be the closest thing we have from Castro to an autobiography. About a decade ago, Castro did over a hundred hours of interviews with Ignacio Ramonet, published in English in 2008 as <em>My Life. <\/em>In it, Castro relates a story that captures his incongruities nicely: One of his earliest political memories, he tells Ramonet, is of the Spanish Civil War. His Galician father was a <em>franquista<\/em>, as were his Jesuit teachers, who prayed for Spain\u2019s martyred priests. But he also learned of the Civil War, and what was being fought over, from loyalists. When asked by his family\u2019s illiterate cook, a \u201cfire-breathing Republican,\u201d for news of the war, the 9-year-old Castro read him stories that played up loyalist success because he wanted to make him \u201cfeel better.\u201d Thus Castro\u2019s very first act of censorship was done in kindness.<\/p>\n<p>Another story has Castro, in 1939, writing FDR to practice his English, requesting \u201ca ten dollars green bill.\u201d Roosevelt replied, but didn\u2019t include the ten bucks, giving Castro a joke he\u2019d use throughout his life: If FDR had paid up, then perhaps he wouldn\u2019t have led a nationalist, anti-interventionist revolution. Nationalist resentment is sometimes built from fabricated grievances. Not in Cuba. In the late 19th\u00a0century, rebels against Spanish rule forged an antiracist and democratic nationalism, only to be preempted by the United States\u2019 1898 invasion. Over the subsequent years, the United States regularly intervened on the island\u2014the Marines occupied it in 1906<span>\u2013<\/span>09, 1912, and 1917<span>\u2013<\/span>22\u2014and just at the moment when FDR proclaimed his Good Neighbor Policy, his ambassador in Havana was openly working to oust a reformist president. Castro incarnated his generation\u2019s finely tuned sense of anticipated betrayal and disappointment, animated by the spirit of New Left volunteerism, in a belief that the course of history could be bent to his will.<\/p>\n<section>\n<div>\n<div>\n<h2>Popular<\/h2>\n<p><span><span>&#8220;swipe left below to view more authors&#8221;<\/span>Swipe \u2192<\/span>\n<\/div>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<div>\n<div>\n<h3>\n<span>Natalie Harp Is the High Priestess of the Cult of Trump<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                Natalie Harp Is the High Priestess of the Cult of Trump<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<p>\nJeet Heer <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div>\n<div>\n<h3>\n<span>Trump\u2019s Ballroom Isn\u2019t Just a Farce Anymore\u2014It\u2019s a Threat<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                Trump\u2019s Ballroom Isn\u2019t Just a Farce Anymore\u2014It\u2019s a Threat<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<p>\nElie Mystal <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div>\n<div>\n<h3>\n<span>The Machine That Came for Jason Arday<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                The Machine That Came for Jason Arday<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<p>\nJafari Sinclaire Allen <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div>\n<div>\n<h3>\n<span>Oxford and Cambridge Have  Always Been Racist<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                Oxford and Cambridge Have  Always Been Racist<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<p>\nGazelle Mba <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p>For decades now, celebrants and critics of the Cuban Revolution have played a mug\u2019s game of trying to pinpoint the moment when Castro turned to Marxism. Castro himself has long hedged on this question, downplaying his populist roots in order to claim a purer socialist pedigree, though in <em>My Life<\/em> he acknowledges equally the influence of Jos\u00e9 Mart\u00ed\u2019s \u201cethics,\u201d which for Castro meant national dignity, and Marxism-Leninism\u2019s historical \u201ccompass.\u201d He admitted favoring the moralizing Marx, whom Castro, a Jesuit-educated lawyer, admired for his \u201causterity\u201d and \u201cself-sacrifice.\u201d \u201cIf Ulysses was captivated by the songs of the sirens,\u201d Castro said, then he \u201cwas captivated by the irrefutable truths of the Marxist denunciations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a tempting analogy; after all, it is only by closing his eyes and willfully blinding himself to the ugliness of the singers that Ulysses could be seduced by their song. But explaining the Cuban Revolution\u2019s tilt toward the Soviet Union by pinpointing when its captain broke free from the course of moderation misses the obvious: If Castro had been a Cuban Communist, he probably would have been more willing to accommodate himself to the realities of Washington\u2019s power in the hemisphere; the Partido Socialista Popular\u2014as the Cuban Communist Party was called\u2014had carved out a space in national politics by entering into successive backroom deals with corrupt regimes. It was Cuban populist-nationalism that was unyielding. \u201cWe are proud of the history of our country; we learned it in school and have grown up hearing of freedom, justice and human rights,\u201d Castro said in a lengthy defense at his 1953 trial for his first failed attempt to overthrow Batista, \u201cand the island will first sink into the sea before we consent to be the slaves of anyone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There are many other arguments to be had about Castro and the Cuban Revolution, about the relationship of political to social rights, about whether, considering the fate of other social democratic experiments in Latin America\u2014in Guatemala, for example, or Chile\u2014the Cuban Revolution would have survived had Castro not shut down civil society, and if that survival was worth it. In <em>My Life, <\/em>Castro lists his country\u2019s accomplishments in education and health care, advances in science and medicine, contributions to decolonization and beating back white supremacy in Africa, ongoing humanitarian internationalism, and the audacity of having survived \u201cthousands of acts of sabotage and terrorists attacks organized by the government of the United States.\u201d \u201cWhat,\u201d he asks, \u201cis Cuba blamed for?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The list is long, and over the decades the defense of the Cuban state has been, for many, deeply dehumanizing. And since Castro himself has repeatedly emphasized the importance of the individual in history\u2014a \u201cman\u2019s personality can become an objective factor,\u201d he once said\u2014he will be held to account for the high cost involved in the revolution\u2019s survival. And the most damning criticism leveled at the Cuban Revolution is not that it is repressive but that its repression was for naught, with all the old problems that plagued Cuba prior to the revolution having returned, including sex tourism, race-based economic inequality, and corruption\u2014problems that will worsen if rapprochement is allowed to proceed.<\/p>\n<p>In all his goodness and badness, Castro was a full man of the Enlightenment. It\u2019s fitting, though depressing, that\u2019s he\u2019s left us on the cusp of a new darkness. But as he once said, the ideals of \u201cLiberty, Fraternity, and Equality,\u201d though routinely trampled, \u201cwill always sprout anew, everywhere.\u201d\n\t<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/atlaslivingmedia.com\/?p=913\">Oxford and Cambridge Have Always Been Racist<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/atlaslivingmedia.com\/?p=914\">Oxford and Cambridge Have Always Been Racist<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<footer>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>                Submit a correction<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>                Send a letter to the editor<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>                Reprints &amp; permissions<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div>\n<p><span> Gazelle Mba<\/span>Gazelle Mba is a writer, researcher, and editor.
