A Chinese Cuban (simplified Chinese: 古巴华人; traditional Chinese: 古巴華人; pinyin: Gǔbā Huárén; Jyutping: Gu2 Baa1 Waa4 jan4; Spanish: chino-cubano) is a Cuban of Chinese ancestry who was born in or has immigrated to Cuba. They are part of the ethnic Chinese diaspora (or Overseas Chinese).
Chinese immigration to Cuba started in 1847 when Chinese (Cantonese and Hakka) contract workers were brought to work in the sugar fields, bringing the religion of Buddhism with them. Hundreds of thousands of Chinese workers were brought in from China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan during the following decades to replace and / or work alongside African slaves. After completing eight-year contracts or otherwise obtaining their freedom, some Chinese immigrants settled permanently in Cuba, although most longed for repatriation to their homeland. Havana's Chinatown (known as Barrio Chino de La Habana) is one of the oldest and largest Chinatowns in Latin America. Some 5,000 immigrants from the U.S. came to Cuba during the late 19th century to escape the discrimination present at the time. A small wave of Chinese immigrants also arrived during the early 20th century to escape the political chaos in China.

Cuba’s Barrio Chino De Havana is one of the oldest and largest Chinatowns in Latin America. Yet this once vibrant neighbourhood has been in decline for decades. Many Cubans of Chinese descent fled the island nation soon after Fidel Castro’s 1959 revolution. Read the full article here: http://sc.mp/oa3zn
Korean-Dominican? Chinese-Cuban? Almost a half a million Asian Latinos now live in the U.S, according to the last census, mostly in NY, Texas, and California. Reporter Tinabeth Piña explores how this ethnic mix proves that one should never judge a book by its cover!
I can't even remember where I first saw this clip, but it's from a Cuban television show called "Para Bailar Casino," sometime in 2005. This particular style of Salsa dancing had usually been unique to Cuba and Miami, but has been slowly spreading to wherever Salsa dancing happens around the world. So, it's still fairly rare to see a Chinese guy (or any non-Cuban) who is this skilled at casino style Salsa. He has plenty of moves but, more importantly, he captures the fun spirit of the dance. The crowd obviously responds well, as you see them stand up and cheer! In the video clip, there is a caption saying the name of the Chinese man is "You Fei Huo," but apparently his real name is Yaofei Huo. For us English speakers, he goes by "David" Huo. :-) He teaches in Beijing, China at a pla...

Filmed in 2009, this is a 19-minute video on the current state of Cuban Chinese 古巴华人 and their mixed-race descendants. Havana used to be called, Little Paris, before 1959. Cantonese Chinese culture flourished there for decades with 4 Chinese newspapers and opera troupes touring the island. Caridad Amaran, a 4-year-old Caucasian orphan embraced the culture and carried the spirit in her heart. Enduring hardship, now 82 years old, she continues to play publicly and also in her own private moments. A Cantonese version of this video is also on Youtube.
Italian musician Marco Britti first fell in love with Latin culture while touring with artists like Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez. Inspired by the Chinese immigrant community he met while living in Cuba, he decided to tackle his passion for the restaurant business through Calle Dao, a corner of fusion cuisine led by Ecuadorean Chef Humberto Guallpa and nestled off the busy streets of New York City.

In this video I show you how to cook a whole pig in 5 hours using the La Caja China Roasting Box. I am still stoked on how well this 67 pound pig turned out.

Cuban vocal group records famous Chinese song "Tian Mi Mi" (Nat Sound: Group Singing) One of China's most famous songs "Tian Mi Mi," or Sweet as Honey, has crossed the Atlantic Ocean and is now performed by Cuba's best acapella vocal group. (Soundbite) Rene Banos, Founder and Director of Vocal Sampling "We found it very interesting from the artistic and musical points of view to explore the traditional sonorities of China. At the same time Chinese poetic language is so different from ours, but in essence very interesting and beautiful." Vocal Sampling, Cuba's leading acapella group, has recorded the song as part of its next album. The band is currently performing it all over the world, particularly in festivals and concerts in Asia. (Soundbite) Reinaldo Sanler, Singer of Vocal Samplin...
