What image symbolises revolution

[Global_Justice]

i don't know if this is in the wrong place :unsure:

what image for you, symbolises revolution? for example, the queens head on ten pound note burning.

I think a lot of people will agree with me.

[People's Coalition]

Indeed.

[bcbm]

I like this one, myself.

[RABBIT - THE - CUBAN - MILITANT]

not enoough ppl give prop's to Ho Chi Minh , he 's what i think of when i symbolise "revolution"

[Sugar Hill Kevis]

agreed, the guevara pic is probably the best symbol for revolution.

I'm also quite fond of the pic of the storming of the Winter Palace during the october revolution... can't find the pic though...

(note that this is not the original picture; Trotsky was featured standing below Lenin , the picture was republished by stalinist censorship in the 30's and Trotsky was removed)




I really like this image from the France riots (I know, not a revolution, but still inspiring)

I had no idea :o

[Everyday Anarchy]

Heh, neither did I. But below the picture a bit, there's that little note.

[Zingu]

I'm so sick and tired of the che cult.

[Freidenker]

A lot of the pictures seem to be exalting the induvidual. I would prefer the Winter Palace painting. Any real picture where the people are flaunting solidarity.

Maybe that has been his "luck" then... we cannot blame him for not living long enough to become corrupt, can we?

He got the cuban nationality, many high ranks in the cuban government, yet he gave them all up for his revolution. has anyone done that before him?

Body count, is that Trotsky on the stairs or am I just dumb?

[Everyday Anarchy]

O_o

Actually... does any see the faint image of a man standing in front of the thing Lenin's on?
I can see a faint face and shoulders. Possibly how stalin erased identities in pictures, faded them out into the background.

Yes, thats Trotsky, and another person on the stairs who I can't really remember (I think Kamenev).

Thats a (At least from what I can tell) highly popular picture of Lenin and I doubt anything has been altered in them.

[loveme4whoiam]

Actually, I can. I definitely see one guy on the right side of the thing, looking straight at the camera with his arms folded, and there might be another person next to him, but I can't tell. Spooky.

[Quzmar]

i like the Lenin one

Stalin later erased Trotsky from that picture. He replaced him with the extension of wooden wall.

I like the one with the guy holding the Palestinian flag posted by Quzmar.

This was from the riots during the Summit of the Americas in 2005.

[Tormented by Treachery]

I circled it, I think, using Paint. Easier to see without the circle around it, but hey, it's pointed out.

[Jadan ja]

Yes, I see it now. Thanks.

If I look carefully I also see bodies of at least two people. The other person is standing left of the circled one and it is visible where his arm is separated from the rest of the body.

loveme4whoiam, were you talking about the same thing?

[Body Count]

Not trying to disrespect anyone but I think you guys are having a little Stalin-Phobia.

I see a slight outline...but I don't think its enough to assume anything. Those people would have to be like 8 feet tall anyways.

Trotsky is still in the picture.

Until anyone can post a photo where these mystery men are in the photo I'm going to assume its the original.

[UltraLeftGerry]

There is another photo from that speech Lenin is giving where Trotsky and Kamenev have been edited out.
