We are working to honor Oswaldo Paya, a Cuban activist who dedicated his life to promoting democracy and human rights, by renaming a street in Washington, D.C. near the Cuban Embassy as "Oswaldo Paya Way." This designation expresses solidarity with those in Cuba who continue to peacefully struggle for fundamental freedoms.

If we’re serious about freedom, we start with symbols like Oswaldo Paya Way—and maybe rethink cozying up to Cuba.

Honoring Paya is more than symbolism; it’s a call to stand with the oppressed and fight for true democracy.

Renaming a road is the least we can do to honor a man who resisted tyranny while some still cuddle dictators.

Changing a street sign won’t change the world, but it’s a small step in recognizing courage where it’s due.

Finally, a street name that reads like a middle finger to communist regimes—about time Washington took a stand.

Not flashy, not loud, but naming this street marks a respectful nod to those who risk everything for freedom.

Finally, a tribute to a fearless human rights hero—not just another old street name collecting dust.

Oswaldo Paya Way is a nice reminder that sometimes democracy has to be fought for—even from across borders.

If we can rename a street, we can rename the narrative on Cuba—freedom always deserves a spotlight.
