A 'legend' who imprisoned gay people in work camps, opposed free press and a racist, writing: “those magnificent examples of the African race who have maintained their racial purity thanks to their lack of an affinity with bathing.” “the black is indolent and a dreamer; spending his meager wage on frivolity or drink; the European has a tradition of work and saving.”

Love it! It misses out some parts; but Che's life was so full of crazy anecdotes it would need 50 parts to tell even half his story.
