Chasing Che

In the Bolivian village where Che Guevara was killed, he is considered a saint. People pray before his portrait. And all this despite the fact that the guerrilla leader, who considered himself the opposite of Jesus Christ, didn’t hesitate to commit violence for the sake of revolution. T-shirts and badges with his image are sold all over the world. Che Guevara's face is on thousands of tattoos. People write poems and songs about him, make films. He’s a legend.

Ernesto Che Guevara was an Argentinian who participated in the revolution in Cuba, and died as a rebel in Bolivia. He came there to fight against the local government to save the poor from their poverty. To this end, he gathered a partisan detachment. But the Bolivian peasants did not want to fight, and the commander failed to get the support he needed.

On October 8, 1967, the Bolivian military, with the help of the CIA, tracked down the revolutionary. They took him prisoner in a battle, and the next day they shot him.

See our film Chasing Che (2017) and find recordings of the revolutionary, which he made shortly before his death. Why did he dream of new wars and death in battle?

Mobile abortion clinic gets rolling in US

This picture is an advertisement for a mobile abortion clinic in the United States. Doctors in Illinois offer to terminate pregnancies on the bus. They lure patients from the states where abortion is illegal.

This summer, the US Supreme Court allowed each state to decide for itself whether it is for abortion or against it. As a result, abortion is now illegal or heavily restricted in 17 US states, while at least 26 Republican-led states are expected to follow in fashion. Missouri, for example, made no exceptions even for cases involving violence or incest. And in Kentucky, violators of the law can receive a 10-year prison sentence.

However, this did nothing to solve the abortion problem. Now, American women seeking an abortion travel to neighboring states for the procedure.

The residents of America describe how the abortion law divided the country in our documentary Abortion: America’s Divide.

Delivery in 24 Hours

Do you know how far a product travels from the warehouse to the customer? It is a very complicated logistical process.

In China, they have simplified it and given most of the work to robots. The machines sort orders in warehouses, and drones deliver them to customers. This is particularly convenient for the residents of hard-to-reach areas. But there is also plenty of work available for ordinary carriers, as many Chinese still want to receive their purchases in person.

Watch our film Delivery in 24 Hours (2021) to know more about the delivery technology in China.

Che Guevara, the legendary rebel and revolutionary, died in Bolivia 55 years ago. He helped make the revolution in Cuba, and fought in Congo. Not long before his death, he came to Bolivia to overthrow an imperialist regime.

On October 8, 1967, he was captured by the Bolivian military, and the next day he was shot. However, Bolivian children today know nothing about the commander. His memory is cherished only in the village where he was killed. The locals there pray to the portrait of Che Guevara. They ask him, for example, to return the cattle that escaped.

Watch our video and documentary Chasing Che (2017) to learn what he was to Bolivians.

‘Farmers’ death = famine'

With posters bearing captions like these, dozens of farmers with their tractors took part in a protest in Frankfurt over the economic decline in the country. The protesters also demanded a halt to the supply of weapons to Ukraine.

More and more people in Europe and the US are upset with anti-Russian sanctions, which have led to a rising cost of living. Inflation has taken a severe toll on farmers all over the world as fertilisers, equipment, and other supplies eat up the bulk of their budgets.

‘Everything is so expensive right now. The main reason is because of the cost of fuel. That drives the cost of everything up,’ says Joe Kriegel, a farmer from Iowa. How does he cope and what perspective does he see for his farming future? Find out in US Farm Crisis.

Boston Children’s Hospital: babies know in the womb if they’re transgender

The Harvard-affiliated clinic has published several videos about surgical offerings for transgenders. But the content enraged viewers, who began to threaten the institution until the hospital deleted the videos.

In one of them, psychologist Kerry McGregor claims that even before their birth, kids know what gender they should be. ‘Most of the patients know their gender usually around the age of puberty, but a good portion of children know as early as seemingly from the womb.’

Net users were shocked. Some people even went to the clinic to protest with posters and signs carrying slogans that read ‘children are never born in the wrong body’ and ‘children cannot consent to puberty blockers’. Do you agree with the protesters?

More and more people are making the decision to change their gender. But after the surgery, many begin to experience regret over their decision. Some even have serious mental disorders.

Can the gender transition propaganda affect the child’s psyche? Find out in Pride and Piety.
