Hola Daniel, vi tu prezi sobre Machuca, está muy bueno. Sólo tengo un
reparo que hacer. El presidente Allende no era comunista, era socialista.
Le colgaron que era comunista para hacer mala propaganda en paises como
EEUU y en Europa. Yo soy de Chile y creci en la dictadura, tambien nos
dieron informacion errada sobre Allende en el colegio, pero el siempre fue
socialista. Te felicito denuevo por tu prezi.
