This image of Che by Alberto Korda has been an icon for freedom, ever since the revolutionary was killed by CIA.
Che Guevara is not just about T- Shirts n coffee mugs. He is a thought process. He is feeling. He is what every revolutionary strives to be. The most perfect human being of our age. Inspired by plights of the people that he witnessed on the motorcycle trip that he took along with his friend, Alberto Granado, through Latin Americas, he took to arms just after finishing handling syringes. He saw armed revolution, the only way to fight in that particular scenario. He told his friend and Mentor, Fidel Castro, that he was there only to train to go to fight for the cause of the Rights of the Oppressed, all around the world.
I do wear his T-Shirts but not as a trademark but because they inspire us more than anything else. I would be wearing Bhagat Singh, Rajguru, Sukhdev, Kartar Singh Sarabha, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, Battukeshwar Dutt, Ram Prasad Bismil and many of our own revolutionary’s T- Shirts too but alas, you can’t even think of looking for them. I think that is one of the sad things. I m not here to fight for the cause of T-Shirts. We have a bigger cause i.e. protecting the Rights of the Oppressed. But T-Shirts and many of his pics that are all around in my room also have their own significance. I can’t even remember how many of my friends who never thought of anything except than themselves before they knew about Che are now in active social work. Many are preparing for Civil Services like myself and many who right now can’t think of what to do are ready for it, whenever revolution calls them.
And here when I talk of Revolution it doesn’t have to be using Guns n Bullets. It can’t be violent in India’s case. But Che will always keep on being the source of revolution and freedom for the people all around the world.
We always keep on talking about Changing the system. Have we ever tried to work properly inside the system???
How many of us even know how to use there Fundamental Rights which is one of the best features of any kind of Constitution all around the globe???
Come on, wake up. Its time to change the face of the Earth.
