Zusammenfassung:At the age of twenty, after being expelled from his California university for anti-war activism, Marc Cooper moved to Santiago and worked as translator for Chilean President Salvador Allende. The heat of Allende's socialist revolution forged Cooper's political and reporting skills, indelibly imprinting them with a radical perspective. In 1973, at great personal risk, he began first-hand reporting on the fiery destruction of Allende's government and Chilean democracy as a result of the US-financed coup
Twenty years later, traveling as a radical journalist in a reactionary world, Cooper continues to chronicle, with biting humor and revealing detail, the events that make our headlines. In Roll Over, Che Guevara, he takes us on a breakneck tour of the New World Order, including Pinochet's Chile, Nicaragua in the last hours of the Sandinistas, Soweto under siege, Panama still smoking after the US invasion, Baghdad bracing for the apocalypse, and into the new Moscow mafia
In the title piece, we met up with Che Guevara's grandson and a new generation of Cuban youth still yearning for Che's ever-elusive promise of freedom
