Omnye wabemi abaninzi baseCuba ngaphandle kweCuba uhlala kwalapha eNew Jersey. Kukho imiba ebalulekileyo eNew Jersey ekufuneka urhulumente waseCuba ayilungise. -Umfazi weNdibano uHolly Schepisi (R-Bergen.) (Cherry Hill, NJ) -Iinki eninzi ichithwe kuhambo lwakutsha nje oluya eCuba ngabaphathiswa bezomthetho abali-10 baseNew Jersey. Ayothusi le nto kuba imiba embalwa ye-geo-politiki igcwele njengobudlelwane base-US-Cuba. Ngamafutshane, sinommelwane wesiqithi nje e-Key West esingcwabe naye iintloko kule minyaka ingama-5 idlulileyo egameni lezopolitiko ezibandayo. Nokuba ucinga ukuba i-Cuba ekhokelwa yi-US e-Cuba ngumbono olungileyo okanye hayi, nantsi ke, emva kweminyaka engama-50 + sisabambelele kuyo. Abanye bethu basabambelele kuyo..Xa u-Barack Obama wayeqala ukuba ngumongameli wayengenantloni malunga nento enokwenzeka uxolelwaniso neCuba. Ingqiqo: ukuvinjelwa kwethu yinto ebuhlungu, ephelelwe lixesha yimbambano nesizwe esingasekhoyo (iSoviet Union.) Ke kutheni emhlabeni siqhubeka sisenza kwa loo nto ingazange isebenze kwasekuqaleni? Abantu abaninzi baseMelika, ngokwenene uninzi lwabantu baseMelika baseCuba bavotele u-Obama kuba Umnqweno wakhe ovakalisiweyo wokuyeka ukungahoyi izizwe kunye neentloko zamazwe esinokwahluka okukhulu kuzo. ICuba ngumzekelo ogqibeleleyo. Ewe sinako, u-Obama usixelele. Ithemba notshintsho. Khumbula?.Kodwa iCuba ingqina ukuba utshintsho alululanga, ngakumbi kwi-pro-embargo hard-liners osapho lwabo lwenzakaliswa ngokwenyani ngurhulumente wengcinezelo waseCuba. Ke xa iqela le-bipartisan lama-mthetho e-NJ lahamba laya eCuba ngasekupheleni kwenyanga ephelileyo kwakuza kubakho impendulo eyomeleleyo, ngakumbi kumlindi wakudala (kubandakanya isenator ephezulu yaseNew Jersey uBob Menendez kunye nesithethi sendibano yethu uVinnie Prieto bobabini abantu baseCuba-baseMelika abanezinto ezingaginyisi mathe. kunye neembono ezizodwa [nangona zenziwe umhla].).Ilungu leNdlu yeeNgwevu UMenendez Kuzo zonke iindawo ehlabathini ukuzama ukudala ubudlelwane obuhle kunye namathuba oshishino, iCuba ayisiyiyo enye ngeli xesha kuba unolawulo olungaguqukiyo, olungafuni ukuvula, olungafuni ukuvumela amalungelo oluntu kunye nentando yesininzi, kwaye enye ukuba ufuna ukwenza ishishini nayo, uza kwenza ishishini ngolawulo olucinezelayo..Kodwa yiloo nto kanye, ngokutsho kweNdibano yeNdibano u-Reed Gusciora (D-Mercer) owenza olu hambo kwaye kamva waxelela i-PolitickerNJ, iminyaka engamashumi amahlanu yokubahlukanisa ayenzanga nto! UBob Menendez kuya kufuneka ayokwenza apho kwaye ajongane nala magosa ombutho wobukomanisi eyeball-to-eyeball! Endaweni yokuba, umntu uthatha, etyhala isakhelo esidala sokudinwa. Ngaphandle koqhankqalazo lukaMenendez, amaqhina eshishini phakathi kweCuba neMelika sele ethatha ingcambu. Umzekelo, i-IDT yinkampani yeefowuni esekwe eNewark eyayinebhunga lezomthetho eliyintloko elisuka eCuba laya kwi-NJ kwaye alizange liyibone usapho lwayo amashumi eminyaka. Ngoku i-IDT ibekwe ngokugqibeleleyo ukunceda iMelika iphinde iseke ubudlelwane bayo kunye nommelwane wethu wesiqithi. Olu tshintsho Ngaba yenzeke. Akufanelekanga ukuba iNew Jersey, ikhaya labaninzi abahlala eCuba, ikhokele? Lezo yayiziintlobo zemibuzo ezazidibene namalungu endibano yethu phaya ezantsi. Ndiyayazi le nto. Bandixelele njalo..ICuba ngumba onomdla kakhulu kuninzi lwabantu baseCuba-Amerika, uninzi lwabo olubalekayo eCuba nehempe emqolo zingaze zibuye, utshilo uMfazi u-Schepisi uxelele iPolitickerNJ. Kodwa ngathi ayisiyethu, sikwiimbali apho uMongameli u-Obama wakwazi ukuthambisa (amashumi eminyaka)..USchepisi wabonisa ukuba inkxaso yehlabathi yokupheliswa kokuvalwa iphantse yabakho jikelele. Yathi, ngumzamo oxhaswe ngamalungu ali-188 ali-192 eZizwe eziManyeneyo..Impendulo evela kubasebenzi abasebenza nzima bakaMenendez yeza ngokukhawuleza: Andiqondi ukuba banokwazi ngokwaneleyo malunga nokuqhubeka eCuba, Utshilo u-Albio Sires , Ilungu leCongress elingelokuzalwa eCuba eline-Hudson County yesithili etyebise uluntu olukhulu lwaseCuba naseMelika. Into kukuba basemthethweni urhulumente kwaye, ngokunyanisekileyo, uqoqosho, iipesenti ezingama-85 zoqoqosho ziqhutywa ngumkhosi eCuba..Lonke oluhambo beluyinto elusizi kakhulu, usodolophu waseNtshona New York uFelix Roque uxelele NJ101.5. Bafana neeBoy Scouts ezingena zize zilwe edabini. Babengazi ukuba bangena ntoni. Kwaye ulawulo lukaCastro lunomatshini olungileyo wepropaganda. Kwaye bacatshulwa gwenxa. Ndiva kakubi ngabo. Lonke uhambo belungonwabisi..Okokuqala, qaphela iiSires kunye neRoque zenza inqaku lokuqaqambisa ukuba abanye bethu bangamaqhuqhuva nje. Okwesibini, kutheni ii-liners ezibonakala ngathi zikholelwa ukuba kuphela ngabathinjwa baseCuba abavunyelwe ukuba nezimvo ezomeleleyo malunga noku? Mhlawumbi ayisiyiyo le ndlela iyiyo, kodwa xa umamele uMenendez kunye ne-ilk yakhe, ngokuqinisekileyo kubonakala ngathi..USomlomo uPereto, naye elubhacweni lwaseCuba, wayejonge kakhulu kuyo yonke le nto: Andizukubagunyazisa ukuba bahambe [njengabathunywa] kodwa andinakuthetha nto ngabo behamba njengabemi base U.S. Leyo yenye yenkululeko esinayo apha engafumanekiyo kubantu baseCuba eCuba..Ngokuphathelene nomcimbi onameva wokubulala umntu owayekhe wabulala uJoanne Chesimard ngokubuyela kwi-NJ ukujongana nomthetho? Yayikhuliswa rhoqo, uSchepisi uxelele iPolitickerNJ..Rhoqo. Kwintlanganiso nganye ebesinayo, wongeza uGusciora, kubandakanya ukuhlala phantsi noJosefina Vidal, usekela-Mphathiswa Wezangaphandle waseCuba.Izinto ezifunwa ngurhulumente waseCuba zichazwe ngothando ngurhulumente waseCuba-ephelisa isithintelo, evala iGuantanamo, utshilo uSchepisi. Kodwa andivanga okuninzi, kwaye ndifuna ukuva, malunga nokufumana i-US. Ngokukodwa, urhulumente waseCuba uceba njani ukubuyisela ubudlelwane nabantu baseMelika baseCuba?.Ukuphilisa amanxeba phakathi kweentlanga zethu akuyi kukhawuleza okanye kube lula. Kukho izikhalazo ezikrakra ezilungileyo kuwo omabini amacala. Ke, nawaphi na amanyathelo athathwe ngamalungu endibano yethu kolu hambo, ekujongeni, aya kumakisha amanyathelo okuqala omntwana kwindlela ende eya kuyo nantoni na enjengobudlelwane obuqhelekileyo neCuba. Kodwa ubuncinci obunethemba lomthetho omnye waseNew Jersey..Uyazi ukuba yintoni ezakutshintsha iCuba ibe ngcono? ubuze u-Assemblyman Gusciora ngendlela ehlekisayo, ngaphambi kokuba aphendule owakhe umbuzo. Izitabane! Banemali kwaye bayakuthanda ukuhamba! Olo hlobo lonxibelelwano lomntu nolomntu, luyayifudumeza intliziyo ukwenza olu nxibelelwano!.Kodwa okokuqala iCuba kufuneka iphucule unyango lwayo yeyakho Uluntu lwe-LGBT.
