so the uss maine explode in havana harbor and there are several months of intensive raid over the whether the united states should intervene in the cuban war of independence. and the result is that indeed, on april in late april of 1888, the united states declares war against spain, and it does so with the pretext of helping cubans shed or liberate themselves from the spanish colonial yoke. it's very interesting that the first battle of the war of 1888, or the so-called spanish-american war does not happen in cuba. however, it happens in manila bay. in the philippines. the philippines was also a possession of of spain and the united states thought that it was important to defeat spain, not just in cuba, but along its crumbling empire. so assistant secretary of the navy theodore roosevelt, gives the order to commodore george dewey, who is in charge of the asiatic squadron in hong kong, to move his ships to manila. and then he defeats the spanish flotilla. so here in this painting that we have behind us, we see the as yet the the asiatic squadron defeating the spanish flotilla, which is all

now you do some cherry picking of your data when focus on places like little havana and little saigon, because those are obviously populations that have had recent experience with social ism and have fled it. and you can make the arguments that hispanics decided the election both in 2016 and in 2020 with the cuban vote in florida being a decisive vote and the mexican vote, mexican-american vote in and some other southwestern states being decisive. so when we dig in, as you just suggested at the end of your question into this minority vote, what don't liberal democrats get about the shifting vote of hispanic voters? latino latina voters in america? yeah. so, i mean, i feel like to me the research i've done on it and i think this is something both parties don't understand. the research i've done on it really suggests i think there's a common, particularly on the right, that, you know, these people are religious and conservative and have very tradition conservative values. and i think to an extent that is true, but the real you know, i went down to the rio grande valley for my book and y

there were five sailors who were arrested in havana, 1838, and they claim to be a native american heritage. and in this instance, the captain general of cuba allowed these native american sailors to stay onboard their vessel. but the captain general then told the u.s. consul, nicholas trist, that there would be no such exemptions in the future if anybody comes into cuba. so the captain, general, whoever the arresting officer is, their word about who is what race that is, what's going to stand up in court. and that's how it's going to be applied. now, again, we don't know how often people successfully passed because there wouldn't be a there wouldn't be a record of that. right. but certainly, again, there's anecdotal evidence that this happened on occasion. and at the very least, status. and again, this is one of those sort of fascinating elements of the archive. there were three adolescents that i found in the record who were arrested at the age of 12 and 13 and in two instances, the arresting officer allowed them to be sort of the two, to have the captain sort of as a as a custodian. but
