Many tend to believe the horrors happening in Cuba only affects Cubans. They couldn’t be anymore mistaken. The Castro dictatorship’s tentacles of oppression are spread all over the region.

We Are All Cuba: The Fight Against Fidel Castro’s Expansionist Project
The arrival of the São Paulo Forum was not silent, nor was its progress isolated from the historical reality of the West. Quite the contrary: it happened in full view of everyone and made a lot of noise.
The wave of protests that began in Cuba last July 11 is of utmost importance to the American continent. Not only because it is about an oppressed citizenry rising up once again against a communist dictatorship that has been victimizing it for 62 years, but also because that same dictatorship has its hands all over the territory, from Seattle to Patagonia, without excluding any country.
