It's all documented in interviews with his former revolutionary comrades in my books Fidel; Hollywood's Favorite Tyrant and in my forthcoming Che Interestingly Miami, with its large foreign born but mostly legal population, did not have any protests. Chicano activists are bitching about it. Cuban-born Fontova holds an M.A. in history from Tulane University and in addition to his book about Fidel Castro is also the author of The Hellpig Hunt: A Hunting Adventure in the Wild Wetlands at the Mouth of the Mississippi River by Middle-Aged Lunatics Who Refuse to Grow Up and Helldivers’ Rodeo Read his previous letter to VDARE.COM on Mexicans vs. Cubans here and his column about Che on Lew Rockwell.com here.
