Where's My Great Grandfather?

Where's My Great Grandfather?

Below is where my great grandfather's statue used to stand but Castro sawed him off leaving just his shoes. Why just his shoes? Did Castro have the delusion that HE could ever have filled these shoes?

Many thanks to Maria for sending me this photo of Castro's insecurity.

Tomas, they distroyed all the statues of the presidents of the Republic. ALL of them. EVERY SINGLE ONE of them. That's the true nature of castroism, hate. Hate for history, hate for the founding fathers of the nation he destroyed. By the way, the place is known in Havana as "los zapatos de Estrada Palma". That's at the bottom of the Avenida de los Presidentes or CALLE G. The building on the right is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, where the offices of Felipe Perro Roque are.

When my cousin Andrew went down to Cuba the locals said the statue was gathering dust in some warehouse. These Castro boy are a couple of real chickens. They're afraid of bronze statues and non-violent words too. These two are cowardly - certainly not real men of honor. They send gangs to beat elderly ladies and old sick folks. The Castro boys have gotten away with it in life but will be remembered for all eternity for their dastardly conduct. I'm really excited about the work Maria Werlau is doing with Cuba Archive to document the victims of these cowardly brothers. Then once it is there to see Americans should bow their heads in shame for allowing this genocide to happen 90 mile from our shores. Perhaps then the Canadians and Europeans who vacation cheaply on the backs of Cuban slave labor will rethink the morality of their conduct.
