Cuban Apartheid caught on tape

In this video a Spanish tourist attempts to check into the famous Havana Hilton Hotel with his girlfriend. The problem is that she's a Cuban citizen and therefore forbidden from staying there. The clerk explains that they need a marriage license or she would need to be a permanent resident of another country. The issue is not that they are not married. If the girl were Spaniard or even Cuban with Spanish residency she there would be no problem. Spanish hoteliers that do business in Cuba agree to enforce the government's disgusting apartheid practices.

End Cuban Apartheid!

Thanks to Dr. Darsi Ferrer Ramirez for getting us this damning video. They don't talk about Cuban apartheid in the tourist guides do they? This ridiculous discrimination must be a result of the evil embargo, no?

CAMBIO!
