Winters drafts a step-by-step playbook, taking you on a historical journey to transform your thoughts on how to interact and embrace Cuban culture and accelerate your path to commercial success on the island. American Po' Boy En Cuba examines the "so what" of the Cuba opening; then answers "what's next!" Bottom line, both the governments and their citizens, whether juridical or natural, in the United States and Cuba need to exhibit patience, understanding, respect, and continued engagement. Chapter compares Cuba's human rights to its hemispheric neighbors. Whether the nations under evaluation are the United States, the Latin American region, or the island neighbor of Cuba, these rights must be viewed as international human rights. The development of these rights tends to grow with national progress, while ebbing and flowing with new globally accepted norms.
