About 30 members of the Damas de Blanco marched through Havana on Wednesday, to commemorate International Human Rights Day. The Damas, one of the pillars of the Cuban opposition, are beyond reproach, so the Castro dictatorship, which had threatened other dissidents planning to mark Human Rights Day, left them alone.
"There were no problems," said Laura Pollán.
Meanwhile, a march planned by dissident Dr. Darsi Ferrer — the subject of preemptive repression by the Cuban secret police — was called off because of a lack of participants.
