Wow, this guy runs a Trotsky museum in Mexico City. It”s actually Leon’s old house. Bullet holes in the front door and all. What an amazing tragedy. Shakespeare would have been proud.

I love this guy. Read the amazing trilogy about him by Issac Deutscher: “The Prophet Armed“, “The Prophet Unarmed“, and “The Prophet Outcast“.
