- www.democracynow.org - In 1991, Nelson Mandela traveled to Cuba to meet with then president Fidel Castro on one of his first international trips after being freed from prison. Mandela called the Cuban Revolution, "a source of inspiration to all freedom-loving people" and thanked Cuba for supporting the African National Congress at a time when it was banned in South Africa and condemned by the United States. "Who trained our people, who gave us resources, who helped so many of our soldiers, our doctors?" Mandela said to Castro. "You have not come to our country -- when are you coming?"
Earlier today, Cuban President Raúl Castro spoke at the Mandela memorial in South Africa. Watch part of his speech at www.democracynow.org/2013/12/1...

This is a historic fact: Fidel Castro fought together with the africans against colonialism and aginst the racist apartheid regime in South Africa.
and south america, but socialist movements where oppressed by the us by impocing dictatorships across south america
And so did Gadaffi ! Another sick-o!
Kettle to pot, eh!

The same South Africans who voted yes in the referendum on 17 March 1992 to end apartheid
Lesson: Don't learn history from the government
Yeah, don't learn it from communist governments.
don't learn history from anyone on the internet with a yarn to spin either. at least there is some communjty oversight with public schools.
@@imnotyourfriendbuddy1883 "at least there is some community oversight with public schools." - that shit is ALMOST funny. Everyday is fuckin' political today. True lesson: educate you and family on your own.
@@sbradshaw1886
Can you elaboate? Funny how your comment all over this channel seem to parrot the russian governent. take your own advice and don't listen to your government. Good luck mr russian
Dude
Nelson Mandela in 1991, when asked about the critics of his friendship with Fidel: "We are now being advised about Cuba by people who have supported the apartheid regime these last 40 years. No honorable man or woman could ever accept advice from people who never cared for us at the most difficult times."
It's the satanic behavior of America, Britain and Israel, they had power unmatched in the 1990s and early 2000s. China rose to power and Russia got it's vibe back and countries like Iran and North Korea are no longer willing to fold hands and let these children of the devil tell them what to do.
And then once they're f orced to (pr etend to) care, the US cIaims that it has always been f ighting for freedom alongside the opp ressed South Africans.

I'm not sure I should be laughing at this but I am
XD
Now that is what I call a powerful moment in history.
Powerful and seems so real. As in not set up or scripted conversation
@@toshinori7263 it’s not scripted when everything that Mandela said thanking castro is true and has actual meaning and humanity in his struggle and the struggle against the oppression they dealt with.

I'm neither South African nor Cuban, and I have tears in my eyes. Why can't humanity be like this? We're all at each other's throats.
Do you know how many Cubans were murdered by Castro?
We never ever in Africa have had sufficiently appropriate words or deeds to thank Fidel Castro without whom it would have taken us centuries to be what we're today!
That has to be the stupidest thing I've ever heard. All the communists ever brought to Africa was death and misery.
BULLSHIT !
@@carlosramos5256 pumbu zako you bumpkin for 🐌
What's that? Corrupt, inept, £%#£ hole?
You can that again ❤
What the hell? I was never told or educated about *any* of this growing up
They didn't want you to know that Mandela was a Communist.
@@edwardpeterson1634 yup, you're never shown pictures of Mandela arm in arm with the South African communist party leaders. Despite these pictures existing and hopefully proliferating
DUH, the éducation system is filtered by the government and the persons on the top so of course they won’t let a communist be well represented and they want to make you see mandela only as a symbol of peace
@Cruiser Well stop thinking you know everything about them because your hypothesis work lol
@Cruiser You sheeps always react the same It’s so récurrent and ignorant
He said "Homeland"❤😩
His highness Mr. Fidel Castro calls South Africa his homeland for a good and valid reason, remember that Cubans are made out of Africans who were enslaved by the Spanish, Spanish and indigenous peoples. So, he has the right to claim Africa as a home land for him because the likelihood of his grandfather or grandmother being from Africa is extremely high, which is why the fight against apartheid was very person for his highness Mr Fidel Castro.

Fidel Castro's father, Ángel Castro y Argiz, was born in Spain. He was born on December 5, 1875, in Láncara, a town in the province of Lugo, in the region of Galicia, Spain.
Fidel Castro's paternal grandfather, whose name was also Ángel Castro, was also born in Spain. He was born in the early 19th century in the same region of Galicia, Spain.
Fidel Castro's mother, Lina Ruz González, was born in Cuba. She was born on April 23, 1909, in the small town of El Cobre, near Santiago de Cuba.
Fidel Castro's paternal grandmother, Maria Argota y Reyes, was also born in Cuba. However, the exact location and date of her birth are not as widely documented as other aspects of Castro's family history.
He said "patria", which imo is much more akin to "fatherland", which makes it even more profound.
0:31 cartro shakes both legs, castro’s body language tells , he was so happy after he hear invited to South Africa .
What a answer: my homeland Africa . All human comes from Africa
spr: Right. He thought: "I fooled all these idiots"
I was confused when he said that at first. Now i understand thanks lol
Another reason to love my Cuban cigar. 🇿🇦
Try our African cigar
South Africa's blood is our blood, Namibia's blood is our blood, Humanity's blood is our blood. Comrade Fidel Castro
+Daryl Richardson why so much blood? cant u thing about normal life?
I guess you missed what the commrad meant. He was referring to the blood spilled around the world was all of our blood and therefore we all have to act against the bloodshed. Hope that cleared that up. It has nothing to do with us spilling blood but acting against those who do.
Daryl Richardson Is Putin spilling blood?
+Daryl Richardson Hello I'm from Ireland Commrad & I want to express solidarity with the people of Africa & Cuba & their great leaders Mandela & Castro. We fought our own struggle against British imperialism & our great leader of that struggle was Bobby Sands who won a great victory against the brutal Fascist supporter & imperialist Margret Thatcher.
Working class people from all over the world have to unite to smash imperialism & capitalism which causes suffering for 100's of Millions of people for good.
+martmart1 If he is he has a hard task ahead of him to spill as much as the British Empire did & the American Empire is
Those who object to Mandela being buddies with Castro, supposedly supporting a Communist dictatorship, miss the essential question, which is: why was Fidel's "dictatorship" on the right side of history vis-a-vis apartheid and why was the "democratic" United States, which for far too long practiced "constructive engagement" with (i.e., appeasement of) the apartheid regime, on the wrong side of history?
heinrichvon oh shut up you commie
Garry Combine shut up you dummy he is stating the truth.
@@Garry_Combine Shut up you lobotomised zombie!!
I was more opposed to Mandela’s horrendous human rights record, and how he treated his own people, than him being buddies with another dictator with a horrendous human rights record. Yeah they both overturned disgusting regime’s like apartheid and Bautista, but does that mean we just forget the thousands of innocent lives they tortured, and murdered. Stalin defeated Hitler, does that make him a saint? Does that mean we ignore all the heinous crimes he committed?
@@Garry_Combine Thank you.
This video made me realize that Obama and team modeled his public persona and image after Mandela. His vocal cadence and gestures are quite the same. Smart move.
Damn. I just realised it after reading your comment. His cadence has been imitated by Obama.
Ojalá también hubiese copiado sus políticas de paz
Trevor Noah (from the daily show) did a bit about it a few years ago
Obama first language is not English. He was raised Indonesian. He put on a fake accent the whole time. He slipped up in a video with Greta Thornburg after his presidency when his real Indonesian ends came out then he fixed it.

Edit: TIL
Fidel Castro and Cuba played big role to fight apartheid in South Africa - Thank you.
ANGOLA and CUBA ;)
@Ludd Zarko Do you go on to every video about Castro just to tell people what they can and can't believe?
@Ludd Zarko I didn't ask if you were Fidel, considering how he is dead. And who are you to dictate what the truth is?
@Ludd Zarko I think I know that Castro was a controversial figure. He wasn't all good or all bad. There are people like you who hate Castro for having to live during his time in Cuba, and there are many other Cubans who were immensely sad when Castro passed away. How can I simply believe the opinion of one person on the internet over the opinions of hundreds of thousands of other Cubans who lived during Castros time and loved him?
@Ludd Zarko It simply isnt, they fled to the country who oppressed theirs and others. Do you know how many sanctions had been placed against Cuba by the United States? Do you know how many times they trued to assassinate him? Do you know what aid he provided to other countries like Jamaica?
Do you know that Cuba today has some of the best doctors simply because of his policies? I could go on.
we need more of these videos , they teach us more about Africanization, Afrocentrism, solidarity and collaboration in attempting to redress constitutionalised oppressions infringed to a certain group of people.
kwan: In that case, you want to delude yourselves with lies from the comunists, the ones that respond
kwane: If you wish to read lies from the comunists, I can reproduce them. I spent 40 years listening to that !
@Nura Husakovic Good question ! The answer I hope it will be even better.
It has allowed them to live in peace and quiet. Not bothering them nor forcing them to do this or to do that, because THE LEADER wants it. You can have your house, your property without being bothered. You can say whatever you want without fear of being arrested and put in jail. You can go to other places if you want to. You are not forced to belong to organizations you don't want to belong to.
In a word: YOU ARE FREE !
Well, it was three words, sorry.
Americans supported Apartheid.
The didn't
South Africa was trying to establish a puppet regime in Angola during the Angolan civil war. The c ia was secretly funding and arming two rebel groups UNITA and FNLA that were on the side of SA. Savimbi the head of UNITA was SA's pick for their puppet. US and Is rael were supporting the South Africans to the very end of Apartheid

I swear, Comrade Fidel Castro has been absolved a hundred times.
All that remains is the manifestation of this quote.
"For I know that after my death, a pile of rubbish will be heaped on my grave but the winds of history will sooner or later sweep them away without mercy".

LMAO! IGNORANCE is a disease. Viva El Comandante por siempre!
Two of the greatest men of the last 100 years.
Castro? Really?
Castro without a doubt. Liberated Cuba, he was the first leader mandala visited after he was freed that speaks volumes.
That's a really poor argument, and no, that doesn't speak anything.
Castro was a corrupted president, he oppressed his people and literally abolished liberty in Cuba. What a great man.
Why do most south American countries model them selves on Cuba.I will admit they should have gone to the people with the vote in the last few years but they are under constant threat from the biggest super power the world has ever seen.remember on average people live longer in Cuba than the u.s.
It is not about how much they live there, it's about their quality of life.
With statements like "the state must limit the freedoms of individuals in order to protect the rights of the collective populace" I must say he knows the way of controling people.
I'm amazed that Fidel Castro say he love south Africa as his own I'm from the island of Puerto Rico my parents are but I always felt a connection with the African it's in my blood you guys are my people God's chosen people
I don't think that God choose evil!!!
@@LuisFernandez-kl4me What do you mean?
Huh
Puerto rico has alot of african origins due to the slaves brought there to work in the sugar cane plantations
“America stands for freedom” has to be the biggest joke told in history
Viva la Revolution 🚩
Le america bad.
No matter what system of government you want in Cuba at least under Castro every one is guaranteed a roof food free health care you think under capitalism they would get that. You would get 1to 3%rich and the rest would be dirt poor. Good debate.
Idiot?
That's your argument one word. Glad to see education working for you.if u don't agree with the statement aleast use more than one word.
***** I've been to Cuba twice in the last few years and I never seen people hungry and most the people were happy.
mark guest say what you want about cuba, but they where the usa`s brothel and now they are a respectable country with out hunger or analphabetism.
im not saying its a perfect government, i think its really outdated, but you cant ignore the progress that castro has done all over the world, from cuba to south america and africa.
he created a social movement on the third world that was being exploited by the two blocks in the cold war
mark guest Cuba has a better medical system than the US, which is shameful for the United States.
Fidel and Mandela, two great anti-imperalist leaders ✊🏽🇨🇺🇿🇦
Want Fidel Castro a dictator
Viva Castro e viva Madiba!
@@axel665 That is the problem. You see everything black-white. It isn't as simple. I don't like Castro at all, but that doesn't make him an all-bad leader. He also did good things, like in this case fighting against ths colonialism.
2 leaders that only created more poberty ...
@@elfrank333 Indeed in the beginning the poverty rate of south africa got higher, but after he set the trend for a lower poverty rate, and like that its now a lot lower. Under Castro the poverty rate got high, but a lot of things in Cuba are free so you can't really speak of poverty. So your statement isn't right if you look at it closely. Whether they are good leaders is another question, but lets get the facts straight
And this comes in my recommendation 12 years later.
that's fuckin overused
and

Rest in Peace madiba...

The reality is that Cuba was instrumental in ending apartheid, they supported de-colonization more than any other nation in the world outside Africa. Hundreds of thousands of Cubans served in conflicts against colonial forces in Africa. The Sans-culottes know history, check out our channel for real, informed news commentary from a working class, youth perspective.

Our channel has 4 videos. We started two this about one week ago. Give us some time, we will be putting out several videos every week. More as we have more experience and interest.

Cuba, an African odyssey. probably the only documentary out there where the hole Cuban participation in Africa is detailed, from Che in the Congo in 1965 until the battle of cuito cuanavale and the liberation of Namibia in 1990. The evidence is irrefutable, because of the testimony of the major players from the Cuban, US, Angola factions and South Africans apartheid politicians and soldiers.
Thank you very much for the information.
I never knew about this, they don’t teach this at school. I am currently a 12 th History student and learning about the Cuban Missiles and I discover this video. My word

The last point is so important about how the USA werê totally complicit in ensuring Nelson Mandela was arrested
Nothing has changed about this country and the Western world. The US is only showing interest in Africa now because Russia and China is way ahead in taking resources. (although all of the world needs to get the f*** out). Also, because many Africa countries refuse to condemn Russia or China - no way when Russia or China is the source of many funds coming into the country.

He said Cuba trained his people not him
Hi There. I am trying to understand why a channel called `democracy now` is putting up this video.. Democracy (A bunch of very wealthy people using their resources to influence politics in the way I see it) is not what Fidel Castro, or Nelson Mandela stands for, is it? I am not responding to cause any bad feelings, just interested!
Wow. The title stood out me considering that the corporate American media would never show good relations with nations associated with communism.
i feel like crying
These are our Allies. LEGENDS NEVER DIE!!
Am I missing something? In a video of 1959, Fidel Castro spoke fluent English, how come they are using an interpreter in this clip?
Well, remember Mandela was a soldier and another revolutionary individual. We got many picturesque characters in history...
Mandela was a lawyer.
Sounds about right that info wasn't shocking
Wow... Thank you so much for releasing this video. No one would have ever imagined these two iconic figures had met.
Wow, just wow😱
Greetings to the Democracy Now! team. I collaborate with an alternative platform in Mexico, and we want to use a part of this video on our social media. We'll give you the credits for the video in case you accept.

You do Knowles it is the USA who have out up at no-travel policy, not Cuba, any other nation Arne very much free to go there, i have several friends WHO have had the pleasure of Traveling there. It is only now recently that Obama finally have begun talking about having the Ban removed. It is not Cuba who
It is the USA who have issued the travel-ban, not Cuba. Any other nation except the US have any problems at all with travels to Cuba. Just take the recent debate about cuba, who speaks about removing trade embargos and bans? The US because they are the only one who have issued them, cuba has protested them ever since the start.

Abdi Ismail yes they are
what are "cupans"?
Jack Grimaldi: Lmao ... Abdi meant Cubans ... Follow-up my man ... lol ...
Abdi Ismail you guys are crazy. There is no medication, basic medical equipment. No bandages. Cuba is a third world country at best. People have no electric or running water. How can doctors learn when there is no medical equipment. Cancer treatment is 20 years behind the rest of the world. Communism sucks
Maggie M no electricity or running water lol😂😂😂😂...omg ur so dumb I swear
Two of the coolest cats in politics.
And the recently departed Harry Belafonte was good friends with both of them.
This brings me immense joy to see Fidel and Mandela disgusting and showing true love and appreciation for individuals that believe in equality, and stand up and want to fight in order to get that dream achieved. My only concern with Manolo is always been why he didn’t go further with Getting reparations for the black South Africans in regards to land may can get a leveling balance, Plainfield, considering now there’s still a lot of black South Africans are living in poverty, and that in a quality was due to apartheid, keeping people accountable and allowing the healing process and forgiveness that’s great. They’re also needs to be a balance in regards to the resources and wealth of the country.
This is a part of history. It was a beautiful thing that Castro helped South Africa and allowed them in the medical field....Africans were and are a huge part of Cuba. They were brought to Cuba as slaves and they influenced the music, food, etc....So they are tied in a beautiful way....
