| CORRECTION |
| |
| In a recent
report on the mood of the country
we quoted this Los Angeles Times
portrait of a local woman:
"Despite growing despair she
senses no critical mass of
indignation . . . People are
paralyzed and impotent,
collectively resigned to the
regime’s failures,
corruption and stranglehold on
all economic levers." In
fact, the woman was in Havana,
the country she was describing
was Cuba. We apologize for any
confusion caused by our mistake. |
