The website says, "The Cuban people have been denied their civil, economic and political rights. Our objective is to each week feature one of the many cubans, who are prisoners of conscience. These political prisoners are being mistreated, tortured and humiliated in Castro’s prisons. Cuban prisoners of conscience are the forefront of the struggle against Castro’s tyranny and they deserve our recognition and support. They represent the paradigm in which Cuba’s freedom and democratic values should be anchored in the future."
