evo morales

October 9th sees our feature film, Looking for the Revolution, occupying the day's discussions. Coinciding with the 40th anniversary of Che Guevara's death, the Democracy House is asking our readers what would make you start a revolution?

As an icon of socialist revolutionary struggle, Che Guevara has transcended cultural boundaries to become a symbol of leftist thinking around the world. Shaped in a similar revolutionary mould forty years later is Bolivia's Evo Morales. Besides being the first indigenous Bolivian president, Morales has sparked a crucial debate about the role of socialism in the twenty-first century.
