The Peasants Are Revolting
A shared pet peeve in our household is the ubiquity of those Che Guevara stencils. I’m relieved in a way to know that they are not just the logo of choice among (mostly) college students here, but do these people know whose face it is they’re wearing and what implications it has? Alberto Korda, the photographer who produced the original image, has said he doesn’t mind all the reproductions so long as are used to serve the ideals of the revolution, and with all the anarcho-syndicalists running around these days, maybe that’s what is taking place. But I doubt it.
