marginalized." - Oswaldo Payá Sardiñas

martyred Cuban opposition leader Oswaldo Payá Sardiñas, is carrying on her father's Christian democratic legacy of solidarity with those suffering oppression and injustice both inside and outside of Cuba. Rosa Maria, along with Cuban musicians, visited her compatriots stranded on the frontier with Nicaragua and took part

Today she is in Venezuela as an observer in the parliamentary elections that will be held on Sunday, December 6, 2015
over twitter Rosa Maria stated her objectives clearly: "I'm in Caracas for the elections to support transparency and democracy [for] Venezuela and Cuba." In an
earlier tweet she explained that she had been invited to Venezuela by Patricio Walker, a long time friend of human rights and liberty in Cuba, who is now president of the Chilean Senate.
All eyes on Venezuela, international solidarity with Venezuelan democrats needed!
