O-10:
You are wasting time trying to reason with The Wikiman. My Grandmother, bless her heart, used to always say,"there is such a thing as too much education". Or maybe 'education' that was not properly understood.
This man puts his faith in wiki writers, when as a pro, he should know better.
Maybe if I posted a few 'authoritative' clippings from Castro's newspaper he would get the point.
All this reminds me of Hank Arron and Babe Ruth. Ruth the greatest player of all time. Hit 714 home runs. WOW!! The along comes Arron. As he closed in on the Babe, the media was going crazy. Will he, can he??
The day after Arron broke the Babe, for the first time in my life I begin to hear the media talk about a Japanese player, last name was OH. He had 900 or some such number of home runs in the Japanese leagues.
WTF??? Who the hell, is OH? Where did he come from? Well, according to the 'authoritative media', he is actually the REAL home run king of pro baseball.
Moral: It can be ANYONE except black Americans. This was very important to a large number of people of that era. Can't be over stated.
Back in the 20's when white folks claimed they created Jazz, there was no mention of Africa then.
If every thing that has happened in Jazz. I mean EVERYTHING had happened just as it did, down to each note ever played, with one exception: All the people were white, we would not be having any talk of Africa. The racists view is that we carry everything around in our genes.
If the wiki site goes down, The Wiki-man will be speechless and thoughtless.
Cheers
