He youtuber Kevin Castañeda, called The Kende of Key Westand the influencers Christopher Gomez, known as Kristoff KriolloThey arrived in the United States on Monday. These Cubans join the vlogger Yoliska Navarro, who last Sunday reported from Trinidad and Tobago her departure from the Island.
Castañeda reported his arrival in Miami. This 20-year-old was photographed by Reuters when he was forcibly detained by a military man during the 9/11 protests. After being detained for five days, he was released in exchange for attending the monthly summons.
The Kende of Key West counted last May to the youtuber Dominican Vladimir Jáquez for his program Beyond the networks that State Security presented him with a piece of paper in which he agreed to be a member of the opposition in each of these summonses. “When I signed a paper, I was saying in that paper that it was true, that I was an opponent, that I threw a stone, barbarities that they invent.”
After refusing, Castañeda was told that he had to complete his mandatory military service. This motivated the youtuber to leave the island, he took refuge in Haiti. Since he left Cuba, they let his mother know that he “could not enter Cuba because he was an opponent.” Shortly after moved irregularly to the Dominican Republic, there he was until he achieved the American dream.

His colleagues Miguelin and La Flaca Verónica also welcomed Christopher Gómez. “Welcome Kristoff Kriollo. Asere, you already know what’s coming. What a barbarity,” commented the first.
Gómez’s arrival was surprising, since in one of his publications he referred to the delays in obtaining the humanitarian parole, which could be the way for the influencer to leave. The program implemented, last January, by the Government of Joe Biden has allowed almost 30,000 Cubans arrive in the United States.
The owner of the Yoliene Vlogs channel, Yoliska Navarro, shared an image from inside an airplane on Sunday. “If you are watching this video, it is because I managed to leave Cuba and today, by being on this channel, you will have the scoop that I warned you so much on my Instagram.”
This Tuesday Navarro shared images of a food package from the American chain Kentucky Fried Chicken. “The richest and softest chicken I’ve ever eaten in my life,” the publication accompanies.
