Fidel Castro wooed and married the most beautiful, richest girl at Uni Havana: Mirta Diaz-Balart (aunt of the Florida congressmen). The family thought she’d married beneath her station because Castro’s father was well-off, but a country bumpkin married to his maid. While the Diaz-Balarts were much more wealthy and very cosmopolitan with apts & siblings in Paris, visiting London (Waldo Diaz-Balart, whose paintings are at Moma, hung out with Picasso crowd, etc). The Diaz-Balarts treated Castro as another average member of the family at Sunday luncheons, when he was used to being the pampered child, orating to his cleaning lady mom & country dad over meals. He hated not being the center of attention, nor as rich nor as cosmopolitan as the Diaz-Balarts. And as with all communists, envy propelled him towards revolution. He kicked out the whole Diaz Balart family, kept their homes, their art, their jewels and their grandson, Mirta’s only child. All out of envy, greed, hatred of his own inferiority, his lack of cosmopolitanism (had never even traveled, spoke no foreign languages, hick parents). Enviousness & a sense of entitlement caused Castro to murder, plunder, rob and leave his son without a mother.
