From Aporrea and reposted on Kasama Project;
In Kolkata, the old British capital in India and the metropolis
of the Bengali people, the Indian Coffee House has been the site of a half
century of conspiracies, debates, art and poetry. At its tables movements have
begun, rebellions have been forged against the colonial power. All of this on
the second floor of this ancient building on College Street, a district of
universities and editorials, of printing houses and old street cars. In the
stairway, sometimes scribbled by hand in this serpentine alphabet, there appear
manifestos and oaths, the convocations of burning memories... there, a group of
insurrectionary Maoists and students decided to do what they could to remember,
somberly, in the view of all who see these walls: "A red salute for comrade
Hugo Chávez."
