The photographer who took these photos in Cuba back in 1994 is trying to see if he can get in touch with any of these people. This was during the "Balsero" era when thousands of Cubans took off in makeshift rafts for the US. Many didn't make it. Some died at sea. Others reached the southern tip of Florida while a good portion of them were intercepted by US coast guards to be sent back to the Guantanamo base.


First link numbers the subjects in the photos.

If you don't like the topic consider skip it.

The OP said some of these people died. These were human beings, somebody's children, and all you can say is that is revolting because they were Cubans? Do you realize how cruel that comment sounds?

Your hate for Cubans is even making you a heartless person. They are no longer human beings for you, you express yourself as if their lives were worthless.
