Here's the deal: Che Guevara is not a fashion icon. He is a symbol for rebellion and subversive ideologies. Some would say in the service of the downtrodden and destitute, while others might argue he served only communist principles. Regardless, the good people at Resistencia – Austin's oldest Chicano performance space and bookstore – might find the idea of Che's face emblazoned on a mass-produced T-shirt, well, silly. Mainly because they understand who he was. Visiting the store, checking out a performance, and absorbing some of their lit might help the rest of us gain a better idea, as well.
