Jon Anderson did much research in Cuba & elsewhere before he wrote "Che Guevara, A Revolutionary Life." I don't remember any references to execution of homosexuals. You can search the book itself:

Jorge Castaneda wrote "Companero, the Life & Death of Che Guevara." Castaneda was an adviser to Presidente Fox & served as Foreign Minister. He's a professor & has appeared on US TV.
Paco Ignacio Taibo II wrote "Guevara, Also Known as Che." He advised Cuauhtemoc Cardenas--who was probably cheated out of the Presidency in 1988--& ran against Fox. Taibo, also a professor, is a proud Leftist & writer of wonderful mysteries.
All these books point out that Che was a soldier. Soldiers do kill, unfortunately. During the revolution, Batista's army was famous for killing prisoners & leaving their own wounded to die. The rebels treated captives well. Therefore, many Batista deserters joined their ranks.
After the revolution, Che did carry out some executions--but not as many as his detractors claim. Unfortunately, homosexuals were persecuted--but they were NOT executed.
Ask for some facts. Check the sources of the facts.
Lazaro Saavedra presented this installation at the 6th Biennial in Havana. The setting is the room where executions occurred--before & after the revolution.

I met the artist years ago when he visited Houston. He had many humorous comments on life in Cuba, but was happy to sell some art & return home. Of course, that sort of cultural exchange is no longer allowed--by OUR government.
