Comrades,

I am participating in a public speaking contest and am wondering if any of you know of any good pieces of writing or speeches by Che Guevara. Preferably 14 lines (although it can be more). As of current I plan to preform "On Revolutionary Medicine".

BTW not to revolutionary and communist please as the judges will undoubtedly be capitalists

thanks

Yes, but that didn't deal with revolutionary medicine. Seriously LeftHenry, I think that you chose too much of a narrow topic as Che was more renowned for his political actions than his medicinal prowess. I don't think that he even bothered with medicine after the Cuban Revolution, thus making a speech concerning your topic quite difficult.

Oh I think you misunderstood me Janus. I meant that the speech I plan on doing now is his speech "On Revolutionary medicine". It was an actual speech given in 1961 I think. I was just wondering if you guys knew any speeches that were more charismatic that he did.

Oh, my mistake. I thought you meant that your topic was Revolutionary Medicine. Yeah, that UN speech is pretty good.
