I Would Like To Add I'm Innocent.

I Had A Lot Of Time And The First Year I Was In Prison, I Tried To Get The Party To Stop The Shooting, To Stop The Talk About The Gun Thing.

When I Founded The Party In 1966, I Had Just Turned 24.and Each Year, No, Not Each Year, Each Day I Live I've Gained New Experiences. Now The Criticism Is Not To Say The Party Did Not Play A Positive Part In Those Times, But, In Order To Be Objective, We Did Not Accomplish The Things We Set Out To Accomplish.

I Would Like To Say That Racial Attitude And Prejudice Are Probably Here...it Is Very Difficult To Act This Out - Discrimination - Discrimination Is An Act. After You Have The Prejudices, The Disciminations Come Out, If There Is An Institution For It But The Cubans Have Attempted To Create Institutions Free Of Discrimination.

I'm Not Ruling. I Never Ruled. I Have One Vote And I'm The Leader Of The Party. I've Always Had A Vote On The Central Committee. I Always Had More Influence Than That One Vote. I'll Admit That.

We Felt That The Police Needed A Label, A Label Other Than That Fear Image That They Carried In The Community. So We Used The Pig As The Rather Low-lifed Animal In Order To Identify The Police. And It Worked.
