    Are you talking about:

    "The powerful of the earth should take heed: deep inside that T shirt where we have tried to trap him, the eyes of Che Guevara are still burning with impatience."

    or

    "No lo vamos a olvidar! We won't let him be forgotten." ?

    At first, I didn't even notice that there are 3 pages to that story

    The article is... mediocre.

    I think the article was OK, but... not that perfect to my point of view :biggrin:

    They didn't despise Che in this article but actually they also didn't say all the truth about him. But what could we wait from an American magazine anyway?!

    I liked the sound bite, other than that nothing really stuck out.

    I wrote my Mid-term essay on this article for my english class. it was titled: "Che: By American Standards". I pretty much said that the article is better than most by american standards but still does not point out all the good that he did, and leaves alot out. I got an A.. (Yay).. my teacher is a socialist, so hes cool.

    i'm impressed - for an american magazine, it's pretty....non-defamatory.....
    i don't think the idea was to talk about either the good or the bad that he did, i think it was more about his legacy, and the way the world's carried his image for the past 40 years
