The judgment of prominent historical figures is a controversial matter. Judging someone's character, whether famous or not, marks his or her life. The question here is whether we can adequately judge someone's character based only on select actions. The purpose of this project is to document the major life events of Ernesto "Che" Guevara and his impact in the world. Throughout the years, Guevara's reputation has fluctuated. The analysis of his life provides an idea as to why the character of a person is not simply one extreme or another. Throughout the course of this document, I will provide evidence to suggest that there are many factors to be taken into consideration, and why it is important to keep these factors in mind.
