Assembly of the Cuban Resistance

The Assembly of the Cuban Resistance (Spanish: Asamblea de la Resistencia Cubana, abbreviated ACR) is a coalition of anti-government human rights groups inside and outside Cuba.[1][2][3] Their members are signatories of the "Agreement for Democracy in Cuba" drafted in 1998, and "My Signature for my Dignity"[4] in 2020. The ACR considers the Castro regime illegal, and supports free elections and the release of all political prisoners.

The ACR combines street action mobilization[5][6] with high-level lobbying.[7][8][9][10][11] It is an influential coalition internationally,[12][13][14][15][16] among the Cuban diaspora[17][18][19][20][21] and the island's civil society.[22][23] It has launched campaigns like "All for a Free Cuba"[24] and "Don't Aid",[25] organized multiple protests inside and outside the island, participated in international forums, and supported the establishment of an international tribunal for the prosecution of crimes against humanity in Cuba.

The Assembly of the Cuban Resistance works closely with and coordinates with Cuban exile communities in diverse cities in the United States and abroad.[26] In the states of New Jersey, Illinois, California, Texas, Puerto Rico, and in the Dominican Republic.[27]
