Life in Cuba as a dissident
Yoani Sanchez is a journalist born and raised in La Habana, Cuba. Today she writes about daily life in Cuba, with little patience for the island's imperfections.
This is the story of the day she arrested and detained by the Cuban authorities for trying to "disrupt a trial" about an opponent of the state killed in a mysterious car accident.
