From Little Havana in Miami all the way to Times Square in New York City, satellite protests in support of the unprecedented protests in Cuba that began in Havana, Sunday, are inspiring thousands — from locals to public figures alike.
On Sunday, thousands of Cubans took to the streets of Cuba from Havana to Santiago, frustrated by months of crisis, pandemic restrictions, food shortages, and, most of all, demanding freedom.
Below, check out the reactions that continue to pour in from Latin American artists and local celebrities whose hearts are in Havana.
