It’s not a generation with a great reputation. At least in the United States, millennials are seen by many of their elders as entitled, rude, conformist, narcissistic… You get the idea.

But what are they like in Cuba? Newsy reporters approached a bunch of Cuban 20-somethings and asked them what they’d like Americans to know about their country. The resulting video not only gives us a glimpse of Cuba from Cubans’ perspectives but also allows us to meet Cuba’s youngest generation of adults. Literally.
