DRE (Directorio Revolucionario Estudiantil)

The Directorrio Revolucionario Estudiantil (DRE) was a Cuban student organization formed in the early 1960s, playing a significant role in student activism and opposing Fidel Castro's government. Composed mainly of university students, the DRE sought to promote democratic ideals and human rights in Cuba. It emerged from earlier revolutionary movements and aimed to mobilize young people against authoritarianism. The group faced repression from the Cuban government and eventually disbanded, but it is remembered for its efforts to advocate for freedom and participation in the political process.
