of Roque Dalton's birth. Roque Dalton was a revolutionary poet of the "Committed Generation"--young intellectuals who committed their lives, turning their words into weapons to defend their people's rights against oppression and injustice. Affectionately jovial and optimistic like his Guatemalan friend Otto René Castillo, his young revolutionary's texts were always filled with a deeply rebellious touch against injustice and the rich.
