This pic is Gustavo Petro, a left-wing presidential candidate in Colombia, being protected during a speech due to death threats.

I know very little about what is going on, all I know is that he is leading the pools, is in the left and right wing in the country is desperate to defeat him.

Do any of you know any place or text so I can inform myself? Like TeleSur etc

    I’m sorry but i don’t have much knowledge in the subject. Farc has been a controversial guerrilla mainly because they kidnapped a lot people and have problems in the command chain. But you need to know that media has tried to destroy his image at all cost. Take what I say with a grain of salt pls. I would like to talk about the matter but i am new to ML and communist so I’m trying to figure things out, maybe in a few days or weeks I’ll post something about it on Genzhou.

    So critical support if you take in account; trying to bring literacy, fought against paramilitaries, support people from rural areas, killed oligarchs, build infrastructure, teaching Marx and Lenin.

    Check this book if you want more info or wait some time until i drop the “essay”
