The Real Academia (Royal Academy) of Spain has declared Castilian Spanish as the the only "proper" Spanish, not the "Official" language.
Castilian refers to the region in which the official version of the Spanish language is spoken. All of Spain speaks Spanish, but with different accents and some slight difference in words or phrases. The same thing occurs with English within the British Isles and with English within the US.
Many English speakers feel that English as spoken by the English nobility is more proper than other versions. Try convincing Billy Bob in Alabama about that some time!
That declaration doesn't make it so. Languages are living, dynamic things. Who is to say what is proper and what is not? What makes these academics think they can impose their opinions on all the people around the world that speak the third most spoken language on the planet? What is proper is what gets the communicating job done between the people trying to communicate!
People from Castile feel quite free to correct other people in Spain who don't speak Castilian. What a bunch of nonsense!

Jose Marti is considered one of the great writers of the Hispanic world. His significance for the American Reader, however, stems from the universality and timelessness of his thought. Marti devoted his life to ending colonial rule in Cuba and to preventing the island from falling under the control of any country (including the United States) whose political ideologies were inimical to the principles he held. With those goals, and with the conviction that the freedom of the Caribbean was crucial to Latin American security and to the balance of power in the world, he devoted his talents to the forging of a nation. Thus, the scope of his work: he was a revolutionary, a guide, and more importantly, a mentor. His vast experience and education enabled him to move comfortably in the most diverse fields, which is what makes his teachings so rich to us indeed.
