Jose Marti Y Perez (1853-1895)
Jose Marti Y Perez (1853-1895) is the National Hero of Cuba. He’s a writer, poet, journalist, pedagogue, orator, politician and revolutionary. He actually have a monument along Roxas Boulevard (near Rizal Park), Manila, Philippines. I just stumbled upon it on my way to Intramuros.
I thought Che Guevarra is the National Hero of Cuba.
