     Ernesto "CHE" Guevara. His image is plastered on t-shirts, hats, bookbags, keychains, wallets, clocks, and hundreds of other items. His face alone can easily be identified by average high schoolers in average high schools across the USA, and literally, around the world. When asked who the person is they represent on their clothing and accessories, the response is, "That's Che. The revolutionary. The freedom fighter. THE Che". But exactly WHO was this man, and what was he REALLY like? Would you wear a t-shirt with the face of Mao Tse Tung? How about Ted Bundy? There is a fine line between myth and reality,a story and history. And sometimes, the line becomes "blurred". I plead with you to wipe the myth from your eyes and see clearly who the REAL Che Guevara was.
