Berta Soler

Berta Soler is a prominent Cuban dissident and the leader of the Damas de Blanco (Ladies in White), a human rights organization founded by the relatives of political prisoners in Cuba. Since its inception in 2003, the group has become a symbol of peaceful resistance against the Cuban government's repression, advocating for the release of political prisoners through silent marches and public prayers. Soler, who has faced numerous arrests and intimidation from state security forces, continues to be a vocal advocate for freedom and democracy in Cuba, recently denouncing a series of temporary arrests of her fellow activists as part of ongoing government repression.
