Helen Yaffe, the author of the book, Che Guevara: The Economics of Revolution, and Vijay Prashad of Tricontinental: Institute for Social research discuss Che's role in building institutions in Cuba following the revolution. She looks at how he grappled with the question of building a new consciousness and changing the way people think. She talks about the innumerable experiments Che and his comrades undertook in the process of developing a model that liberated people from capitalism.

On October 9, 2020, the anniversary of Che Guevara's assassination, nearly 20 publishers across the world released a free e-book with two of Che's iconic works, Socialism and Man in Cuba (1965) and Message to the Tricontinental (1967). You can download the book at this link.
