Cuba’s San Isidro Movement (MSI)

The Movimiento San Isidro, or the San Isidro Movement (MSI) is an ongoing protest in Cuba against an authoritarian communist regime which is ruling for more than six decades.

  • The movement-started two years ago, is a campaign by artists and activists demanding greater freedom of expression.
  • They are protesting against the state censorship of artistic works, and has now become a platform for Cuban dissidents both within and outside the Caribbean nation.
  • However, the Cuban president, Miguel Díaz-Canel, has called MSI “an imperialist reality show to destroy our identity & subjugate us again”, calling for it to be “crushed.”
