STOKELY CARMICHAEL VOWS TO
CARRY ON CHE GUEVARA'S STRUGGLE -
Upon arriving in Algiers from Conakry October 19, Stokely Carmichael, the militant leader of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, issued a statement to the press on the death of Che Guevara.
According to Agence France-Presse {as translated by World Outlook], Carmichael said that "from the blood of Che a thousand Che Guevaras will be born. The death of Che does not put an end to the struggle for liberation in the world. On the contrary, his blood will serve to nourish the liberation movements, bring-
ing them to full flower."
"The death of Che," the black
power leader continued, "will make us
struggle all the harder. I will continue
struggling myself and I hope that when ny
death comes it will be like Che's. What
better homage can we pay him than to say
that he died fighting? Che Guevara died
showing us the road to follow and we now
have a duty to humanity as well as to
ourselves to see to it that his work is
carried on. In the hearts of the Afro-
Americans, Che's death can only make him
seem more alive."
