I was in Cuba for a couple weeks at the beginning of January. Our tour included a visit to the Bay of Pigs Invasion Museum which was pretty interesting. They didn't really have a reason to spin who won, but the ideology behind the conflict was vastly different than what I had learned in a US school.

I've been convinced for a few years (and I'm older than most here), that we really need to do a lot more to understand both sides of any situation. We probably still won't agree but it will cut down on the unconditional dismissal of alternate opinions. At a minimum we might learn something.

Many people have been conditioned by politics to look at the other side of the story as "propaganda", as if a lot of what we read in major newspapers isn't also full of propaganda...
