This is a picture of the business card of Fidel Castro after he graduated as an attorney from the University of Havana.
After General Fulgencio Batista executed his famous coup d'etat on March 10, 1952, Fidel Castro went before the Cuban Supreme Court, asking it to declare the coup illegal and as a violation of the 1940 Cuban Constitution.
The Yankee imperialists ruled Cuba back then. They applied pressure and the Cuban Supreme Court looked the other way, and who knows, maybe even money changed hands.
After all legal avenues were closed to him, Fidel Castro and his considerable following in the Ortodoxo Party started to conspire clandestinely against the Yankee supported puppet.
The 26th of July attack on the Moncada Barrracks took place in 1953.
THE REST IS HISTORY!
