Yeah I thought they did a pretty good job of explaining Cuban culture. They also made some on Puerto Rican and Mexican cultures.

A lot has changed with the new generations. Miami has for sure lost some of its Cuban feel. Union City, NJ is probably worse since I heard many Cubans have left.

This video brought back many memories. I am not Cuban but I used to eat cuban food on a regular basis especially at work and school around the time this video was filmed

FANTASTIC VIDEO
The character of Cuban people (their intense love of life, their happiness even in the most difficult of times, their food.....) reminds me so much of Spain. Undoubtedly, the links between those two countries are huge!!

Cuban Americans to me are the most balanced out of Latin Americans.

Cubans are just right in attitude.

Not anymore, recent arrivals are a pest. They are the "New Man", a real disaster as a human beings. Communists wanted to create a virtous and generous "New Man" and they created egotistical roaches.

To me it seems that egotistical roach attitude is very popular, now a day, I a guess that the more egotistical roach they are their approval rating get higher. i believe is do to the fact that people relate egotistical roach attitude with pompous royalty.

Approval rating? The New Man is hated by everybody. By Miami Cubans, by the same Raul because they remind him of his failed social experiment, by their abuelas, by everybody.
