Bangabandhu's March 7 speech and composition of my poem
Fifty-three years ago, on March 7th, 1971, the Father of the Nation and the visionary leader of the liberation struggle, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, delivered a historic speech at Dhaka's Suhrawardy Udyan (formerly known as Racecourse Maidan).
Bangabandhu's position in language movement in historical context
The region that makes up Bangladesh today has a long history of language disputes. Despite this, 21 February 1952 remains a symbol of the language movement for most Bengalis. However, in the writings of most of the researchers, the time frame of this movement is around the period from 1948 to 1952. If you consider this movement a struggle for the status of the Bengali language, not everything will be said. The student leader, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, has led this movement since the beginning of 1948. Although he led as a representative of the emerging middle class of East Bengal, he had a deep connection with the country's peasants, workers, and lower middle class. Therefore, in a public meeting held at Armanitola Maidan on February 01, 1953, as part of the first anniversary celebrations of the 1952 February Mass Explosion, he said, 'The language movement of 1952 was not only about language, but it was also our life and death struggle. We want to live like humans. We want food, we want clothes, we want shelter, we want civil rights. We want the right to speak. We want a society free from exploitation.' ('Secret Documents', Report No. 47, February 21 1953).
