Mothers against repression or Mothers and women against repression (Spanish: M.A.R. por Cuba - Spanish: Madres y Mujeres Anti-Represión) is a human rights organization based in Miami, Florida, United States that campaigns against political repression in Cuba.[1]
The group represents exiles from Cuba and is noted for intimidating more moderate exiles by holding all-night prayers in front of their homes.[2] They protest any contact with the government of Cuba.[3]
M.A.R. was very active in the controversy around the child Elian.[4][5][6]
