Summary
DescriptionEdmund S. Valtman, What you need is a revolution like mine ppmsca.02969.jpg
English: "What you need, man, is a revolution like mine." Valtman portrays Fidel Castro towering above small figures who represent Cuba and Brazil. As Castro advises Brazil to have a communist revolution like the one he led, Brazil looks back at the Cuban leader in puzzlement, perhaps pondering the fate of Cuba in rags and chains. Shortages of food and consumer goods were reported in the island nation in late August, at the time that Valtman made this drawing. At the same time, Brazil was facing the economic challenge of debt and a crisis of leadership when Pres. Jânio Quadros resigned on August 25th. Though Latin American countries that desired social reform initially regarded Castro with sympathy, Valtman seems to suggest that Brazil has come to view his example with skepticism. This cartoon won the 1962 Pulitzer Prize for Editorial Cartooning.
