Canek Sánchez Guevara

Canek Sánchez Guevara (1974–2015) was a Cuban author, photographer, musician and dissident. The grandson of Argentinian revolutionary Che Guevara, he grew up in the upper crust of post-revolutionary Cuban society, but soon became disillusioned with the government of Fidel Castro. After his mother's death, he went into exile in Mexico, where he worked as a writer for Proceso, penning criticisms of the Cuban government. He died in 2015, following complications with cardiac surgery. ^{Canek Sánchez Guevara, Cuban author and dissident (d. 2015)}
