Alternative Title: Defund the Cuban Police

One more “data point.” Another cruel indignity. This time at the hands of the Cuban State Police. I just found out that an officer working for Cuba’s National Revolutionary Police shot and killed an unarmed black man in the back, Hansel Ernesto Hernández Galiano (pictured above), and that since this incident, which occurred on June 24, state “security” agents from Cuba’s Interior Ministry have detained or arrested dozens of people for the political crime of protesting Hansel’s untimely death. Here is the Cuban Government’s official version of the story, where they destroy the victim’s character after having murdered him, and here is the truth (via Human Rights Watch). #JusticiaParaHansel #LibertadParaCuba
