What does it mean to be a “Millenial” or “Gen-Zer” in Cuba today? Greg Kahn explores the answer to this question through a series of photographs that comprise Havana Youth. Known as “The Special Period in Time of Peace” or “Período Especial,” an extended period of economic crisis due to the dissolution of the Soviet Union loomed over Cuba from roughly 1991 to 2000. Cubans born during or slightly before this period are now in their 20s and 30s and have spent much of their youth seeking to define themselves as individuals in a nation that emphasizes the collective. They have experienced extreme economic recession, dwindling resources and a US-led economic embargo that bred resentment toward the United States and the bourgeoisie.
