Cuban Lady In White tells supporters in Tampa: Nothing has changed about repression in Cuba

Garcia was an honored guest Sunday at a gathering at La Casa de Cuba, a social gathering spot for the exile community in Tampa.

Attendees took turns expressing their support for Garcia and other dissidents on the front line of the struggle for freedom in Cuba. The passion with which they spoke was real, strong and inspirting.
