Born from two words, youth and rebel, which the people cried out to Fidel in 1965, the newspaper of the new generations and the entire people has not stopped accompanying the ideas that have kept Cuba awake mostly, the president wrote on the social network X.

On October 21, 1965, Fidel Castro announced the new publication, which had Revista Mella and Diario de la Tarde as its predecessors, in order to collect and continue the combative and exemplary traditions of the Cuban youth press.

On that occasion, Fidel Castro said, “I believe that starting tomorrow this newspaper, which will be called Juventud Rebelde, which means one more step forward, one more step forward on the revolutionary path, one more step forward along the path of socialism, one more step forward to communism, will begin to appear.”

Juventud Rebelde remains faithful to its founding objectives and has opened its scope to current national and international issues.
