Ladies in White

Ladies in White is a Cuban human rights organization founded in 2003 by relatives of political prisoners. Comprising women who march peacefully each Sunday to demand the release of their family members, they symbolize nonviolent protest and resilience. The group draws international attention to issues of political repression and advocates for human rights and democratic freedoms in Cuba. Their activities are often met with government opposition, leading to arrests and harassment, highlighting the ongoing struggle for political reform and civil liberties in Cuba.
