Ron Dellums in a good light....
Congressman Ron Dellums was a Communist who spoke admiringly of Fidel Castro. I'm not supporting apartheid or anything but... Ron Dellums is no hero. Besides... what goes on Cuba to this very day is 10 times worse than apartheid ever was. Unless of course... the father in this film just happens to have the same name as the infamous commie congressman.
Just to give you an example.. this is an excerpt from his Wikipedia entry...
After a U.S. Marine invasion of the island, a letter from Dellums' chief of staff, Carlottia Scott to the Grenadian dictator Maurice Bishop was recovered, describing Dellums' feelings towards Bishop and, presumably, Cuban dictator Fidel Castro. (The letter is below.)
"Ron [Dellums] has become truly committed to Grenada, and has some positive political thinking to share with you…. He’s really hooked on you and Grenada and doesn’t want anything to happen to building the Revolution and making it strong. He really admires you as a person and even more so as a leader with courage and foresight, principles and integrity…. The only other person that I know of that he expresses such admiration for is Fidel."
