There has been much ado following Jay-Z’s and Beyonce’s recent trip to Cuba. Conservative right wing Republicans have jumped into the fray and have asked for an investigation which is ridiculous in my opinion. Apparently, Jay-Z agrees and released a new song to address this Cuban conundrum! It’s called ‘Open Letter’. Cuban-American superstar Pitbull also showed his support by dropping ‘An Open Letter’ as well!
An Open Letter of support to Jay-Z and Beyonce was also issued by a group of persons and groups in support of the couple and travel to Cuba which I hear is absolutely beautiful!.
We, the undersigned, Americans, Cuban Americans, and organization representing millions of citizens, wholeheartedly support and endorse your recent trip to Cuba. We apologize in advance for certain Cuban American lawmakers, who in their obsession to maintain failed policies with our island neighbor attacked you and the rationale for your trip, which they always knew was legal. You discovered certain things that we know, that the Cuban people and island are a beautiful one, rich with culture, art, and music, yearning to share that with us who are in America. Our citizens are denied that experience freely. While Cuba has its problems and we look forward to becoming a positive influence and friend to our neighbor, we also know travel restrictions on our own people make no sense and yield no results other than aggravation and misery. We ask and hope that you will do the following:
Tell President Obama about your trip and your experience. Let him know if he should open more travel to Cuba. Encourage all your friends in the world of arts and entertainment and sports to make the trip to Cuba too. Join us to become active participants in the campaign to end all the travel restrictions once and for all.
