40 Years ago today Ernesto "Che" Guevara was killed in Bolivia, in a failed Stalinist revolution that that Bolivians wanted no part of.

Che is often treated as a hero but in fact was "an authoritarian, anti-working-class Stalinist, whose legacy was the creation of a more bureaucratic, authoritarian regime." and the revolutions he inspired "had the practical result of reinforcing brutal militarism for many years."

His Legacy in the Cuban American Community

Many Cuban exiles have spoken of Guevara in less than favorable terms, and he is remembered by some as the "The Butcher of la Cabaña", a reference to Guevara’s post-revolutionary role as “supreme prosecutor” at the Cabaña fortress. The epithet was repeated by Cuban-born musician Paquito D'Rivera, who wrote an open letter castigating fellow musician Carlos Santana, for wearing a T-shirt displaying Guevara’s image to the 2005 Academy Awards ceremony. Similar sentiments have been shared by Cuban-American actor and director Andy Garcia, who stated in 2004 that "Che has been romanticized over the years, but there is a darker side to his story. He looks like a rock star, but he executed a lot of people without trial or defense."Garcia’s 2005 film The Lost City, which was reportedly banned in several Latin American countries, portrayed the ruthless brutality at the heart of the Cuban revolution. Actor Jsu Garcia as Guevara is shown casually shooting wounded Batista foot soldiers where they lie.

This group called NK Missions sends me an email about how they want me to pray for North Korea every once in awhile. Today’s issue had some news in it.

They’re even admitting to having tens of thousands of political prisoners and they want my charity?
