Rights
It's good to live in the United States, but not
without decorousness!
The greatest irony in the United States is that a microchip be implanted into
an eye of an anti-communist refugee, tracked, monitored and persecuted.
Moreover, when this person is an American citizen who is professor, a designer
and a poet/writer.
When someone is frequently under electronic, cyber or under any other sort of
surveillance, it's because he's considered an enemy or a subject who poses a
risk to the community.
I came to this country as refugee 20 years ago, and I haven't visited my
country yet because the reasons I left Cuba as refugee still exist, and worse.
So, if I am considered a person non grata or an enemy combatant, I am rather
willing to be sent to Guantanamo Prison. Thus, you wouldn't be concerned about
me anymore.
When I came to this country as refugee on January 11, 2001, under The United
Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), I had already worked as a
professor
for about 30 years, the last 15 as a language professor at the Agricultural
University of Havana. Within this university, I taught English and French to
students of the School of Veterinary and the School of Agricultural
Engineering. I also taught French to graduates who worked as professors or as
researchers at the university.
Before being a university professor, I was a French teacher at Havana Language Schools.
But before being a French teacher and a university language professor, I was 5
years in the Cuban army until 1965.
Before the Cuban Revolution, when I was 14 years old, I was a clandestine within
a revolutionary cell.
Beside my military function, I was a basic instruction teacher as most of my
contemporary fellow soldiers were almost illiterates. By 1964, after having
received some teaching instructions, I became officially the instruction
teacher of my fellow soldiers, and that was my last function in the army.
During my five year in service in the Cuban army, I was twice in a military
prison where I also taught basic education instructions to fellow soldier inmates.
How much I contributed to the education and professional instruction of
hundreds of fellow Cubans during my lifetime in Cuba.
I have two bachelor's degree as I had graduated from the School of Philology of
Havana University, and from the School of Foreign Languages of the Higher
Pedagogical Institute of Havana. I also had attended other studies such as
Russian, Italian, English, and basic didactic instruction within the army, and
so on.
Professionally, I reached my dream in Cuba because I worked as university
professor, but by political and literary reasons, and to allow my sons to reach
their American dream, I fled the country focused on keeping teaching French
through my own method in my own facility. Just after my arrival to the refugee
shelter in Fulton, MA, in an interview for a local newspaper with supposed
journalist Abigail Zequenza, among other things, I told her that my intension
was to create my own French Language Academy. I had already told the same thing
of my teaching and cultural project to an American "diplomat" in Cuba
before fleeing the Country.
The entire newspaper edition, where appeared the interview of Abigail on me,
was removed after the 9/11/2001 terrorist attack in the US soil.
At to that time when I came to the United States, no university professor with
two bachelor's degree had had the authorization to leave the country, but I had
become a leader of the opposition. That's why the Cuban government had no
choice, and reluctantly allowed me to flee the country with my sons in 2001. We
had been settled in Massachusetts sponsored by the Catholic Charities' Agency.
Do you think the Cuban regime would remain indifferent that I could succeed in
accomplishing my cultural and teaching project in the United States after
having studied two university careers and worked in a university for fifteen
years? Absolutely not!
In Boston, I worked in a hotel for seven years until 2007, and I taught French
language at Cambridge Center for Adult Education in 2003 and 2004. Meanwhile, I
attended studies of psychology, sociology, anthropology, journalism, music and
English writing at Bunker Hill Community College of Boston.
I lived in Lynn, MA, where I finished my books of poetry in French language
"The Kid and the Beast, Woman, and a text book to learn French Language.
All are deposited at Washington Copyright Office.
In 2007, a year after I became US citizen, I moved to Miami, mainly to begin a
Master's degree in French language. Beside my two Bachelor’s degree, I had 52
academic college credits with an outstanding GPA of 3.8.
When I enrolled in Florida International University to attend graduate studies,
everything was easy, and I was told to submit the transcript from Bunker Hill
Community College. But suddenly, things became hard as I was told to submit the
transcripts of Cuban universities, what was hard for a person having come to
this country as a refugee after having been one of the leaders of the
opposition at that time.
And despite being US citizen and having submitted my transcript from Bunker
Hill Community College, I was compelled to do two admission tests, the GRE
(Graduate Record Examinations) and the TOEFL (Test as a Foreign Language), what
surprised me because I did not expect to pass this test (GRE). Regarding the TOEFL,
I couldn’t complete the test because on April 2012, I was under the torture caused
by the microchip into the eye, which didn’t permit me to concentrate. The perforation
on the left eye, through which the microchip was injected, remained still opened.
It's funny how the government goes out of his way to help illegal immigrants
reach their dreams finishing their university careers while I was denied help
to continue my career in Visual Art at Miami International University after I had
been granted a scholarship. I had to withdraw from the university owing a debt
of almost $ 6.000. I did not ask for money to South Florida Work Force
but for a job to pay the career tuition..
Both, my enrollment in Florida International University and in Miami
International University were part of my cultural and educational project I had
begun, when I was still a university language professor at the Agricultural
University of Havana. Also, the enrollment in these two universities were
important for my profession and the plot of two of my books as cinematography is
taught at the Institute of Arts and Designs of Miami International University. Moreover,
as you can learn ceramics at that institute of artists, painters, designers, photographers
and film makers, I had embraced the idea of working in ceramics with my more than
2 thousands colored designs. That’s funny!
The Master's Degree in French at FIU would be significantly important with my
possible job in high school as I had obtained the Letter of the Official Statement of Status of
Eligibility as I was eligible for a Florida Educator's Certificate to teach
French and English in high school. People in the shadow have made me a loser. My
enrollment in graduate studies in French language in FIU, and the Status
of Eligibility to apply for a post of French
teacher were really important to me because I had created a book to develop
French Language through poetry and music (©). That's why I had attended music
classes at Bunker Hill Community College in Boston.
My Career at Miami International University, Institute of Art and Design was
not a chimeras as I was officially registered to attend the first year, paying
the tuition fees with the money I received as unemployment compensation because
I was jobless.
I did not come illegally to this country. To enter here, I submitted my
criminal records with no felonies. I submitted also my medical information and
employment records from the Agricultural University of Havana. Previously, I
had presented my cultural and educational project and my desire to American diplomats
in Havana to implement it in the United States.
If the US government considered me as a person not grata, why it allowed me to
settle here?
If the US government did not permit me to begin a master's degree in French
Language in FIU; and did not help me continue my career in Art and design at
MIU, why it was permitted I entered to
this country under the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, and
sponsored by Catholic Charities' Agency?
It's a crime for a legal refugee to apply for a post as language professor
(French and English) in High School after having received the Letter indicating
my Status of Eligibility? It's a crime for a legal refugee to try to enroll in
university careers? It's a crime for a legal refugee to have his books
published?
In 2011, my first book of poetry in French language was published and one copy
of it was sent to the Library of Alexandria, in Egypt. Thus, officially, I
became a naturalized American poet/writer.
Absurdly, however, by that time, I lost my two jobs in Downtown Miami, and a
microchip was implanted unlawfully in my left eye, an electronic device which
has nothing to do with any human health conditions, as it's a device for
tracking and spying no matter I am US citizen with no criminal records.
Since 2012, the microchip has been lying into my left eye, poisoning it, and my
face which is darkening.
How come a country with a significant amount of Nobel Prize Awards in Medicine
and in other sciences allows that an electronic device intended for
communication through electronic waves be implanted into an aqueous environment
so important and sensitive as the human eye is!
I've just had a mini stroke on January 11, and was hospitalized a couple of
days. And there is consequences for having the microchip inside the eye. Just
keep in mind that the eye is a prolongation of the brain through its optic
nerve. The eye is the only part of the brain that can be seen directly. My left
eye is disturbed and part of my face is darkening due to the microchip's
toxicity.
Since 2011, I've been explaining about the atrocity of putting a non medical
electronic device in my left eye. Many people have been hearing about this
issue through my blogs in Facebook, Twitter, Google. I'm aware people know I am
a tracked man under surveillance. And then, somebody, aware I am defenseless,
is taking the royalties of the selling of my books in several online bookstores.
At least, my books can be bought online, but sadly, oppression and
discrimination have been prevented me from receiving the royalties of my books,
which are my property.
And also my French text book has disappeared, been stolen from my blog "Le
Français par la Poésie et la Musique". The same title I deposited this book
at US Copyright Office of the Library of Congress, which is a French Text Book
I created for French learning.
The link of this blog, "La Lyre Enchantée" (www.aralmagro-newpoetry.com), along with other
links ("Papillonjoli" and "Angelangelo") remain inside the
blog "La Fleur Rouge du Papillon". However, the content of "La
Lyre Enchantée", the title of which is "Le Français par la Poésie et
la Musique", was stolen or sold!
My profile pictures show I am a colored person. Within Google, Chrome and Blogger
people are accountable of my French Text Book's disappearance or selling.
When you click on the link, appears www.aralmagro-newpoetry.com...but the text
book composed by 8 lessons doesn't show up. This is a copyrighted property.
In addition, through Google, people can buy any of my more than 2000 colored
designs of my Blogs "Le Français par la Poésie et la Musique",
et "Le Français par les Gravures” (designs). Both blog's content is disappeared.
Nevertheless, my colored designs remain in Google's photos from which anybody
can buy any of my designs, but the money goes to someone else! Usurpation!
When you are defenseless, other people enjoy from your belongings or property.
I said I had begun the creation of the French text.
book at the Agricultural University of Havana for my French didactics and
methodology. Hence, my interest in a Master's degree in FIU to work on my
teaching profession.
The fact is that it's not common that a colored person be able to create such a
magnificent French Teaching Method, and to write a great literary
creation in French language. For certain people, my skin is too dark, my face
too ugly and my hair too curly to be considered a magnanimous professor, a good
designer of more than 2000 colored designs and a genuine literary creator!
My property copyrighted is being stolen, including the royalties for the
selling of my books, and everybody is happy.
Twice I went to the Agency of the Department of Justice charged for issues I
considered high profile. I was told I have to deal with physicians. Since 2012,
when the microchip was implanted into my eye, I have dealt with physicians
regarding my visual health. However, physicians have nothing to do with
electronic surveillance, citizen’s right violation, refugee programs, and the
copyright infringement of a poetic and French teaching literary creation.
For 20 years, I've been living cornered, mainly after September 11, 2001 when I
worked in Boston. Now I wonder why January 11, 2001 was selected for my fly to
Boston from Miami, Cancun, Havana. By the way, I think, the plane had an
emergency landing that night at Logan Airport.
It's enough to be tracked with impunity without reasons while my cultural and
literary creation are being stolen. II am not a terrorist, a bank robber, a
drug or weapon dealer, a sexual offender or a communist. I am a catholic who
has been a professor and a writer for almost all my life. I didn't come to this
country to commit crime, nor to improvise a cultural and teaching project. I came
with all my writings from Cuba.
I am sure I was the first colored Cuban
immigrant who has taught French language in Harvard Square, in the city of
Cambridge, MA. I am sure I am the first colored Cuban Immigrant who has had his
books published in the United States by a Canadian Publishing House.
When I had worked in Cuba as a professor for about 30 years, and when it was my
time of labor retirement, being then quasi 60 years old, and after having
contributed to the instruction and education of hundreds of Cuban fellows, I decided
to come to this country enthusiastically with my cultural and teaching project done
under the arm.
As I am an educated and respectful person, a Christian, I repeat I am rather
willing to go to Guantanamo Prison, or to another third country, but keeping my
Cuban and American citizenship, this latter obtained lawfully, after having
settled in this country lawfully in 2001.
I am not a criminal, a felon, but a victim.
Thanks for reading
Expecting further actions from authorities, and
looking forward to doing the rights solutions,
