I know you’ve come to kill me,” he said. “Shoot, you are only going to kill a man.” Che guevara

[@dackelyolo2749]

Everbody who fight's for the weak for the poor and for the people that cannot speak anymore ... these people are heroes and its no matter what religion they believe in and its no matter which country they come from. We are all human... time to remember that !

[@gfexc]

The poor didn´t ask for him, nor they wanted him. Not one single farmer joined his ragtag group

[@jangler007]

Notice the empty seats because the US delegation told them to leave during Cuba’s speech.

[@4Barbudos]

"Those who let the murderers of blacks remain free, and punish the black population because they demand their legitimate rights as free men - how can those who do this consider themselves guardians of freedom? The government of the United States is not the champion of freedom, but rather the perpetrator of exploitation and oppression against the peoples of the world and against a large part of its own population." ~ CHE GUEVARA, 1964

[@Yesuv_I]

And CIA killed this man in Bolivia because they were scared of his Ideas ❤ Gone but never forgotten 👑 El che Guevara

[@randy95023]

As a "good American" I'm not supposed to like Che, but in my 55 years I've seen that he did truly care about the poor. Since USA's "Corporations" don't give a d@mn about the poor then we were supposed to not see the good that comes from a truly caring man if his aims might damage Stock values in the USA. So, if you love Money you should hate Che, but if you care about people then you should Love him...

[@jamx97]

randy95023 He cared, but went about it the wrong way. Socialism never works.

[@km5405]

im no American, but I a agree with you, his heart is in the right place - the world would be a better place if big companies even had one.

[@dennymendoza280]

well said

[@dandombrowski9991]

yes

[@pedrozaragoza2253]

randy95023 this man enslaved the people of Cuba. Corporations feed people, Che enslaves them. What a poor excuse for a human being.

[@namanrai1460]

You cannot catch me I am a free bird and You can not kill me I am an immortal spirit. Revolutionaries never die as people live not due to their mere physical existence but they live through their thoughts and actions.

[@gino07770]

Che is bigger than communism. The mistake most people had is to think he just care about spreading communism, when in fact there was a time that he opposed the Soviet Union because he saw it as another form of imperialism. Communism and socialism in america, for the most part, has been rooted in the native peoples way of living. He saw how un-check greedy capitalism from the US help displaced the poor and helpless from the lands. At the end of the day if you leave in a society where justice, freedom, and opportunity are enjoyed only by the rich and powerful. Sooner or later people like Che will emerge.

[@historicalhindsight1107]

Che most certainly isn't bigger than Communism. His entire adult life was predicated on violent revolutionary struggle; Marxism-Leninism was his effective religion, he ultimately died for it. His opposition to the Soviet Union only came after Khrushchev reneged from nuclear war during the Cuban Missile Crisis; he was perfectly happy with Moscow's imperialism when it was stationing nuclear missiles in Cuba. Communism and socialism are 19th century European constructs that most certainly weren't rooted in the indigenous cultures of the Americas. The most substantial indigenous civilizations in the Western Hemisphere: the Mayan, Aztec, and Incan empires were politically authoritarian, socially hierarchical, and economically coercive. Human sacrifice and bondage were far more central to their 'way of living' than the socialist voluntarism advocated by Che. European contact only inaugurated the replacement of indigenous empire and colonialism with a foreign one, which banished certain indigenous cruelties and replaced them with others. Of course, peasant communalism, particularly in central and South America, has and continues to be integral part of life in many Latin American countries. But, there's nothing culturally unique about subsistence based agricultural communities having commonly owned resources, nor do those unconscious customs constitute socialism as Che would've understood it.

[@khadimkhouma13]

You have little understanding of the human nature I fear dear sir

[@marko1263]

No, everything he did in his life was in the service of communism. He saw himself as just another fighter in this world-historical struggle between capitalism and communism.

[@koushikdas1992]

Communism is a curse! It's a cult.

[@NiyaValentine]

when he says "Patria o muerte" at the end it sends chills up my spine...what passion and love for Cuba...RIP

[@original_me6505]

Even his walk to the podium is powerful in itself. Che Guevara isn't just a hero for what he did but he's a legend for what he stood for. America convinced the world Che was evil, had him assassinated and thought that was it. America is still afraid of everything Che Guevara stood for. Much respect and love for Ernesto Che Guevara. May his legacy live on!! Aboriginal Australians look at Che as a warrior for his people & justice. 💪🏾

[@anirudhmurali7115]

Che Guevara. My idol. Love from India. Hasta Siempre, Commandate.

[@nocturnezero]

Did a delegation walk out? I assume that was the US?

[@UnAmericanBandstand]

I am brought to tears just watching him walk to the podium. Watching him move. Speak. Breathe. He was there. Right there. Alive and well and strong. Then his life was taken. I hope people who watch this will truly understand that this is the man who gave the world IDEALS and wanted to change things for the BETTER. I hope people will see this and feel how special this man was and still is.

[@alexkatc59]

Che lives! Forever in our hearts!

[@marcosandiego619]

Pedro Zaragoza be quiet. All the world powers imposed today have caused a hundred times more bloodshed than this one man . Who truly stood alongside his men for the better of a country .

A hero of ALL heroes.. we will NEVER forget you!

[@robertpolanco1973]

Personally, I am impressed with the words of Che Guevara in regards to the international situation, particularly on Latin America. I think that what Che had achieved was as both revolutionary and statesman on behalf of Cuba and that he also stands for the poor and disenfranchised of the world. Viva Che!

[@Kiskeya]

This is ONE of the BEST SPEECHES ever made in the UN. RIP Che....

Will always miss you Che... From Pakistan

[@sinjonezp]

Right or Wrong, if you look at this mans story, beyond the murders committed in Cuba, where he came from, his beliefs, he went from being a student , a traveler, to a revolutionist , all the way up to speaking at the UN and getting a standing ovation, is something to be respected. Che was and is something one can lean on for motivation by saying, you too can have a voice, you too can make a difference, it’s a matter of what you do with this voice and power once calming it. Was Che deceived by Castro? Was he deceived by other countries? Was he deceived in believing in one thing ultimately changing to another? The main goal is to fight for what you believe in and knowing it is JUST, and to create a better place in wake of the turmoil and oppression. I salute Che for many things.

RIP our hero .... may god send his mercy to the soul of my beloved hero che quevara .... sad feelings from libya ...😢😢

[@trahouston]

The history of South America is similiar to that of the United States, white Europeans came and destroyed indigenous people. Che is of ancestry of these white Spaniards who colonized Argentina and degraded and disenfranchised the brown people of this continent, this is why Bolivia and Peru were formed and why Argentina is one of the whitest countries in Latin America. He knew this and had a heart for the indigenous which is why he sacrificed his life in order to unite and fight for past mistakes

[@indigoclassic9894]

Che...last century's Icon of the world.

[@MariaMartinez-researcher]

FYI, his name was Ernesto Guevara. He was Argentinean of birth; there, is customary for people to address each other as "ché," meaning pal, dude, friend, man, girl, so in Latin America we tend to nickname any Argentinean as "ché" adding the given or family name afterwards. In Chile there's a cartoon character called "ché Copete." The UN should have a little more knowledge of the basics of Latin American culture.

[@QoziKalon]

@romybobby Because he was a hero. If Latin America had more leaders like Che and less leaders like Batista, Pinochet, Noriega, Trujillo and the likes of them it would've been a much better place today. This man stood up against oppression and after victory did not let power corrupt him. He continued the fight and died like a man. Even if I was his enemy and did not share his views I would still respect him.

I am greatly influence by Che's revolutionary ideas, revolutionary dies, but revolution lives forever. Lal salaam to Che.

[@PradattaAdhikary]

Mr. President, fellow delegates. The world has developed a great deal in this political arena,but American imperialism, above all, has led people to believe that peaceful coexistence is the exclusive right of the world's most powerful nations Cuba, my fellow delegates, free and sovereign, with no chains tying it to anyone, without foreign investments in its territory, free from occupant military bosses determining political status, can stand tall at this assembly
