Hi!
Just wanted to congratulate you on a great article on che Gue...the revolutionary bloke. Shame he is being flogged on cheap T-shirts these days, oh well...
Guten Nacht!

the autist formerly known as flinch

I'd just like to point out a possible addition to your Che entry - obviously you have kept much of the major detail of his life out for the sake of being concise and objective - but the bibliography could probibly do with having "Venceremos - Collected Speeches" in it to. It shows Che's humour, conviction and thought at it's best as here deals with individual issues and situations on a detailed basic and a very human level, which for me is the most important aspect of his approach, he never forgot the role of the individual (which is the major downfall of Marxism). The book aslo includes the "Memoire of the Cuban Revolutionary War" the most important of his biographical writings, so it's a great volume.
This is an important work for anyone wishing to look at the mans methods deeper after reading your entry.

Thanks.


Congrats Comrade

And a quote:

"Let me say at the risk of seeming ridiculous, that the true revolutionary is guided by feelings of great love." - Che.
