Easily my favorite page from a graphic memoir FILLED w/amazing, harrowing scenes & images of a family fleeing communism for freedom in America!
It's unfortunate that this refugee from communism has to keep teaching this willfully ignorant man what REAL communism is all about!

Historic visit to Cuba for @POTUS. Glad his visit paves the way to opening markets for agricultural trade. (1/2)
