Cuba recalls Julio Antonio Mella on his 95 death anniversary
Julio Antonio Mella was probably the most hated revolution fighter by the dictator Gerardo Machado, who did not hide his homicidal intentions when -in the face of arguments to free him from arbitrary detention- he told his lawyer Ruben Martinez Villena: “I do not know what communism is, nor anarchism, nor socialism. But neither the students, nor the workers, nor the veterans, nor the patriots, nor Mella. And I’ll kill him! I’ll kill him!”.
