Biographical/Historical Note The United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) set up the Cuban Freedom Committee in late 1960 to sponsor anti-Castro radio broadcasts similar to those of Radio Free Europe. The committee appeared as a private activist group that solicited donations for the operation, later identified as a funding conduit for CIA domestic operations. The Cuban Freedom Committee produced Free Radio Cuba, a stridently anti-Castro program that was broadcast before, during, and after the Bay of Pigs invasion on licensed stations in the United States and overseas including WKWF, Key West; WGBS, Miami; and Radio Swan from the Swan Islands off the coast of Honduras.

Arensberg (later Mariada Bourgin), the executive secretary of the Cuban Freedom Committee and later the special assistant to the U.S. assistant secretary of state for education and cultural affairs. Materials include correspondence, speeches, reports, radio broadcast recordings and transcripts from Radio Free Cuba, financial records, press releases, clippings, notes, and other printed matter. The records of the Cuban Freedom Committee and Radio Free Cuba document research efforts and the creation of and reaction to radio broadcasts to Cuba. Material includes research files on topics such as Fidel Castro, political conditions and civil rights in Cuba, the Cuban economy, Cuban propaganda, Latin American groups, Cuban society after Castro, Cuban exiles, Cuban inmates, Cuban intellectuals, Cuban schools, Cuban subversive activities in Latin America, and Cuban-Russian relations, as well as material relating to the CIA's involvement in Radio Free Cuba. As a special assistant in the Department of State, Arensberg was in charge of its programs for women and minorities. Particularly, there is information relating to increasing the participation in international cultural exchange programs documented through correspondence, university publications, and print materials. English and Spanish names of events and organizations were used interchangeably throughout the Cuban Freedom Committee records.

  • U.S. DEPARTMENT of STATE COMMISSION on UNALIENABLE RIGHTS February 21, 2020 15:30
    U.S. DEPARTMENT of STATE COMMISSION ON UNALIENABLE RIGHTS February 2 1, 2020 15:30 Good afternoon. My name is Thor Halvorssen. I am the Chief Executive Officer of the Human Rights Foundation, a position I have held since the organization was founded in the year 2005. I am grateful to the Commission on Unalienable Rights and to Ambassador Mary Glendon for inviting me to share the Perspectives of HRF with you today. The Human Rights Foundation was created fifteen years ago by a group of individuals that included Vaclav Havel, Elie Wiesel, Harry Wu, Armando Valladares, Eduardo Mendoza, and James Q. Wilson. We initially came together to respond to the vacuum that existed in the human rights field when it came to monitoring, researching, and addressing what a group of us saw as the erosion of democracy, as defined by the Inter-American Democratic Charter, taking place in the Western Hemisphere, specifically in Venezuela, Nicaragua, Ecuador, and Bolivia . What was occurring in these countries was the slow-motion suffocation of civil society, the destruction of freedom of expression and of the press, the systematic violation of th e separation of powers, and the gradual elimination of free and fair elections by governments ruled by democratically-elected leaders with authoritarian personalities all of whom expressed open admiration for then-octogenarian dictator Fidel Castro in Cuba, anD expressed their will to install dictatorial Cuba -like regimes in their own countries. One would think that the international organizations in the human rights field—the establishment ones with annual budgets in the $50 million to $100 million range— would have the experience, the expertise, and the resources to address these crises.
