Generalísimo Francisco Franco is still dead.

In honor of the 29th anniversary of this joyous day, you may enjoy reading about the memorial anti-fascist demonstrations held across Spain, or by reading about the life and work of Buenaventura Durruti—an anarchist and a hero of the anti-fascist struggle in the Spanish Civil War, who happens to share the anniversary: Franco passed into his well-deserved oblivion 39 years to the day after Durruti was killed on the way to Madrid.
