For the first time, LGBT people marched in Havana June 28 without government approval or affiliation with any governmental agency.
Previous gay marches have been staged through CENESEX, the National Center for Sex Education, which is run by President Raúl Castro's daughter Mariela.
The march, down Paseo del Prado, was organized by an independent group called LGBT Observatory of Cuba.
A spokeswoman for the group told reporters that CENESEX does not speak for all Cuban LGBT people.
