The Globalization of Liberation: Focus on Feminism

This chapter discusses developing countries and the creation of "third world" and the need notion of change. People were tired of oppression and colonial rule. As I read about Che Guevara and how he became an inspiration to third-world liberation movements and a symbol of radicalism to many in the West. I invasion a society of change and a desire of independence. In today's society there continues to be a desire of liberation from the self imposed society that we have obeyed. Our society has been successful in changing history such as the legalization of gay marriages. These victories could be tied with revolutionary leaders that like Guevara encouraged people to rebel and speak for what they thought was fair.

Strayer states that "Che Guevara, the Argentine-born revolutionary who had embraced the Cuban revolution and subsequently attempted to replicate its experience of liberation through guerrilla warfare in parts of Africa and Latin America. Various aspects of his life story -- his fervent anti0imperialism, cast a global struggle; his self-sacrificing lifestyle, his death in 967 at the hands of the Bolivian military, trained and backed but the American CIA--made him a heroic figure to third world revolutionaries."
