HAVANA, CUBA - MARCH 25: Women with the dissident Ladies in White group, also known as "Damas de Blanco", prepare to march together after a church service a day before Pope Benedict XVI is scheduled to arrive in Cuba on March 25, 2012 in Havana, Cuba. The Ladies in White group are the wives and mothers of 75 people who had been arrested and received lengthy prison sentences but have all been freed, most as part of a 2010 agreement brokered by the church. Benedict, who will be arriving from Mexico, will conduct a mass in the city of Santiago de Cuba first followed by a mass in Havana before leaving on the 28th. Tensions are high in Cuba between some dissidents and the government as activists hope the international exposure of the Papal visit will result in renewed attention to their struggle.
