Cuban revolution's impact on diverse children's lives.

"Coming Up Cuban" is not just a story; it's an immersion into a pivotal historical moment through the eyes of four distinct children.

Description

From Pura Belpré Honoree and Emmy-award winning actor Sonia Manzano comes the expansive and timeless story of four children who must carve out a path for themselves in the wake of Fidel Castro's rise to power. Sonia Manzano examines the impact of the 1959 Cuban Revolution on four children from very different walks of life. In the wake of a new regime in Cuba, Ana, Miguel, Zulema, and Juan learn to find a place for themselves in a world forever changed. In a tumultuous moment of history, we see the lasting effects of a revolution in Havana, the countryside, Miami, and New York. Through these snapshot stories, we are reminded that regardless of any tumultuous times, we are all forever connected in our humanity.
