About me: Founded by Florida International University students in 1993 the Free Cuba Foundation is a non-profit, and non-partisan movement whose purpose is to work towards the establishment of an independent and democratic Cuba using non-violent means. This myspace site serves three purposes:
1. Provide information on the situation inside of Cuba and the international community's relationship with the island.
2. Provide a platform for human rights and democracy activists to dialogue.
3. Provide a means for the internet community to engage in campaigns to improve human rights standards with a special focus on obtaining the release of political prisoners or improve their conditions inside Cuba's prisons.
The Free Cuba Foundation has joined the campaign "Yo No Coopero con la Dictadura" (I Do Not Cooperate with the Dictatorship). The picture above is from the 9/16/06 human solidarity chain that FCF members participated in. Free Cuba Foundation Archives Cuba Verdad
We are Cuba's voice and strength ...and we have to unite and fight for the future of all Cubans and for our beautiful country that has been frozen in time, born there or not, it's in our veins and the time has come to educate others of our reason behind the madness.
From the always right babalublog. com La Ventanita brings up an interesting point about all of these reforms announced by the munificent raul castro, king of all he surveys in Cuba (thanks Alberto) and trumpeted by the world's media and that is if that if Cubans can now stay in Cuban hotels legally and can now purchase telephones and PCs legally then it's obvious that such thing were prohibited before. But when we would say such things we were discounted as right-wing batistiano nut jobs that couldn't cope with the beautiful reality of the worker's paradise because fidel castro the great took away our sugar plantations.
Now that Cubans can buy cell phones and stay in hotels the only thing they need is to be able to criticize the government without fear of reprisal, to be able to organize political parties, to be able to vote in free and fair multi-party elections, to be able to move around the country as they please, to be able to work for themselves or other Cubans without interference from the state, to be able to buy, sell and own property as they see fit. Then we can talk about meaningful reforms.
Oh and let's not forget freedom for people like Dr. Oscar Elias Biscet and other political prisoners.

I personally thank you for understanding the Tibetans cause for it is as ours!!
H.H. Dalai Lama is in exile, so are we.
I'm not political, but I'm not naïve either. As I mentioned previously, unless there is an imminent threat to anything we consume in the US, such as petroleum, there will NEVER be a step forward from the US government to help Tibet reclaim its land.
A long time ago, I had a talk with a Chinese living in this country. He debated that actually Tibet always belong to China... he added that China wanted things “the way it was originally” ... I then told him that if that was the case, that then China must go back to “the way it was originally” ... NOT Communist. He shot his mouth and walked away!!!!
