Che Guevara: Hero or Villain

Che Guevara The revolutionary who pleaded for his life.

Ernesto Che Guevara whom people call Che or used to call el che. Who was a doctor, revolutionary, writer, leader and master in guerrilla warfare.

Che was born on 14 June 1928 in a middle class family.

He had 5 siblings. He was smart in studies.

In 1953 he became a doctor. He was a fan of Marxism because of his love for the poor and other sentiments. During his medical work, he traveled to South America on a motorcycle and wrote a diary known as the Motorcycle Diary.

In 1959 in Mexico, he met Fidel Castro who was a revolutionary.

After this Che took part in Castro's 26 July movement, in which Castro won.

Now seeing the atrocities being committed towards the poor inside Che, the spirit of the revolution was burnt.

In 1959, Fidel Castro seized power in Cuba, after which Che was made Cuba's Minister of Industry.

But after a few years, in 1965, Che left Cuba and traveled to Africa.

In Africa, he tried to bring change or revolution there too, but he failed to teach the guerrila warfare to the tigers there. Che returned to Cuba in 1966, after that with the help of America, Che and the other 9 fighters were arrested. He was sentenced to death on 9 October 1967 in a village in Bolivia.

You might be surprised to know, but Che, who was a famous and brave revolutionary, was afraid of his death on being caught, begging that I am Che Guevara, don't shoot, I can be more useful by staying alive.

The Che who had killed some people was now crying for his life.

But even today, for many reasons, this famous revolutionary, whom Forbes considered one of the greatest people of the 20th century, considers him a Villain

But it is incomplete without Che to say anything, whether it is guerrila walfare in the world or to start the fire of revolution.

Let me also tell you that Che means friend or brother.

So here were some things about Ernesto Che Guevara.
