The renewal of diplomatic relations between the United States and Cuba after decades of hostility brought new hope for change in Cuba. Journalist Tracey Eaton traveled to the island to tell the story of change through the eyes of some of Cuba's more than 1.5 million 20-somethings. He found that some young Cubans are optimistic about the future and believe the new relationship with the U.S. will help make Cuba more open and prosperous. Others aren't so sure, saying the pace of change remains slow—some are leaving the island as part of the biggest wave of migration since the 1990s.
