🇨🇺 #Cuba #Stamp El Presidio issued 1953 , 100 years after #JoseMarti birth | José Martí was a writer, poet, and independentist during times of the rebellion against Spain. His figure has been used by the Castro regime to favor their marxist agenda. Seen here, a young Martí, age 16, was a political prisoner when in 1963, his home was searched by Spanish military who found letter the boy wrote to discourage a friend from joining the Spanish army. If José Martí were alive today, he would have been a political prisoner again since he warned at such an early date of the dangers of #socialism and #marxism . Especially on a letter to his dear friend Fermín Valdés, New York, 1894 : " .. There are 2 dangerous things of the socialist idea (..) it provides foreign, confusing and incomplete arguments, hidden rage and arrogance of ambitious people, who in order to raise up in the world to have shoulders to lean on, they pretend to be avid defenders of the helpless." | José Martí en el Presidio Político cuando tenía solo 16 años por sus ideas independentistas. #sello Sin dudas el poeta hubiera estado preso en nuestros tiempos en #Cuba ya que José jamás se tragó el cuento del socialismo y el marxismo. En una carta a su amigo Fermín Valdés ( prohibida en Cuba) le escribe: " Dos peligros tiene la idea socialista, como tantas otras: el de las lecturas extranjerizas, confusas e incompletas: y el de la soberbia y rabia disimulada de los ambiciosos, que parar ir levantándose en el mundo empiezan por fingirse, para tener hombros en que alzarse, frenéticos defensores de los desamparados." New York 1894.

🇨🇺 #Cuba #KingAlfonsoXIII 1898 turn of the century. #stamp #sello #monarquia #filatelia #philatelia The Alfonso collection from this time is notorious for the stamp forgeries. In 1898, the war for independence from Spain was still raging ( The Ten Year War). A year prior, Valeriano Weiler ( Butcher Weiler) left the island after his repressive failure known as the reconcentration, where a lot of Cuban families, including mine, where confined into towns. Years later, dictator Castro would repeat the same with the Captive towns ( Pueblos Cautivos) and the Umap( forced labor camps for dissidents, religious groups and the lgtbq) | Por algún motivo, esta collección de sellos de Alfonso tiene reproducciones falsas. En 1898, Cuba aun seguía bajo la guerra de los 10 Años, independentistas vs. la corona. Un año antes el general represor Valeriano Weiler dejaba el país tras el fracaso de la reconcentración, un desplazamiento masivo de familias, incluyendo la mía, confinadas a pueblos. Años mas tarde, este tipo de práctica represiva sería continuada por el dictador #Castro con los Pueblos Cautivos y los campos de trabajo forzados #Umap.
