Cuba's Ladies in White denounce the violence of the Castro dictatorship
Marta Diaz Rondon, Gertrudis Ojeda Suarez and Miladis Rosa are three Ladies in White and pro-democracy activists that have been beaten, dragged, arrested, and kept under surveillance for the simple act of paying tribute to their deceased brothers in struggle, for peacefully and publicly opposing the tyranny, and for trying to assist religious mass.
Fulgencio Batista served as president of Cuba from 1940 to 1944. He returned eight years later and ruled as a brutal dictator until 1958.
