Advises newly arrived Cubans in the U.S. to be honest: "Leave the burden of communism behind."

Luis David Fuentes, known as the Kentubano, gathers dozens of compatriots; he reminds them that they enjoy privileges that other immigrants do not have and encourages them to live dignified lives and to refrain from theft and violence.


Luis David Fuentes, known as El Kentubano, has once again touched on a sensitive issue in one of the talks he gives to newly arrived Cubans in the United States, in this case, in Kentucky. He advises them to be honest and "leave the burden of communism behind" because theft and violence lead to the innocent suffering for the guilty, he said in reference to recent events that have taken place in this state, where more than 50,000 immigrants from Cuba have settled in the last two years.

According to what he explained in front of an audience full of Cubans, even they, newcomers, despite being at the lowest rung, are privileged because they receive state aid that even war veterans cannot access, let alone other immigrants like Mexicans, Hondurans, etc. That is why he encouraged them to appreciate that when they arrive in the United States, a red carpet is laid out for them, referring to access to Medicare or English classes.

That is why he encouraged his audience to work honestly because in the United States, he said, it is not necessary to be a doctor or a professional with a degree to live well, because when one is honest in that country, "the sky is the limit." In addition, he warned that one cannot believe that U.S. authorities are not aware because, as he explained, "they give you enough rope until they take you down."

El Kentubano believes that it is important for people who come to the United States to forget the customs of Cuba, where only the leaders with huge bellies live well and sit behind a desk, while the rest have no choice but to steal from the State that exploits them. In the United States, you have to change your mindset, he came to tell them, because you can live off work. In fact, he reminded everyone that even they, as newcomers, are already better off than what they left behind because they have electricity, toilet paper, ham, and freedom.

Luis David Fuentes finds it hard to believe that there are Cubans who, upon arriving in the United States, engage in assault or murder, as happened recently in Kentucky, when the Cuban Yailín Casales was killed by her ex-husband, who shot her multiple times and then committed suicide.

In front of an attentive audience, El Kentubano reminded them that they should do what they see being done in the place they arrive at, and for that reason, he encouraged them not to record themselves with their phones in supermarkets, not to litter, and to speak English.

This is not the first talk that El Kentubano gives to newcomers from Cuba. In his YouTube channel, you can find many more. In one of the most recent ones, he clarifies that when they stay for a long time at their family's house, they stop being a visitor and become a "problem."
