A community portal about Che Guevara with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Ernesto Guevara de la Serna, commonly known as Che Guevara or el Che, was an Argentine-born Marxist revolutionary, political figure, and leader of Cuban and internationalist guerrillas. As a young man studying medicine, Guevara travelled rough rough throughout Latin America, bringing him into direct contact with the impoverished conditions in which many people lived.

Cuba's best-known folk singer says he has a new song intended to "rehabilitate" the image of revolutionary Ernesto "Che" Guevara from the international super-brand seen on everything from coffee mugs to refrigerator magnets.
