Havana real: one woman fights to tell the truth about Cuba today

She's Been Kidnapped And Beaten, Lives Under Surveillance, And Can Only Get Online—in Disguise—at Tourist Hotspots. She's A Blogger, She's A Cuban, And She's A Worldwide Sensation. Yoani Sánchez Is An Unusual Dissident: No Street Protests, No Attacks On Big Politicos, No Calls For Revolution. Rather, She Produces A Simple Diary About What It Means To Live Under The Castro Regime: The Chronic Hunger And The Difficulty Of Shopping; The Art Of Repairing Ancient Appliances; And The Struggles Of Living Under A Propaganda Machine That Pushes Deep Into Public And Private Life. For These Simple Acts Of Truth-telling Her Life Is One Of Constant Threat. But She Continues On, Refusing To Be Silenced—a Living Response To All Who Have Ceased To Believe In A Future For Cuba.
