Che Guevara(videos): His Legacy on the 81st Anniversary of His Birth

This coming Sunday, June 14, is the 81st anniversary of Che Guevara’s birth and it is a good occasion to review various parts of his life and missions.

He visited the Republic of China, Mali, Congo (Brazzaville), Guinea, Ghana, Dahomey, Tanzania, the United Arab Republic, Ireland and Prague. He returned to Algiers to participate in the Second Economic Seminar of the Organization of Afro-Asian Solidarity. Below is a video snippet of one of the two speeches he gave there. Here, he clearly articulates the beast that is imperialism.

1. It was so good to finally see that letter, havi ng heard about it for a long time.

Thanks for including the wonderful song by Carlos Puebla. Never heard that version before. He did it so well. Appreciated the chance to see a raft of images, some I've never seen before now.

He will only become more revered as time goes by, in spite of all the hard work by the drooling right-wing to destroy his image and his history, and rewrite it all. His courage, his spirit, his sacrifice will be remembered for a very long time.
