Reading these blogs helps me as to see the bigger picture of what the people in Cuba go through. I will work even harder to help get Yoani’s word out through our myspace, Remembering a Free Cuba. I started this a few months ago with the help of my dear friend who is from Cuba and came here to the United States as a young boy. Being of Italian descent Yoani’s blogs and his stories make me able to help the 900 cuban friends we have on our myspace better and understand the emotional pain they suffer each day. Thank you, Tina
