The cross Binay bears

Today is Labor Day. It is the day workers the world over glorify their tradition of revolutionary struggle while being themselves glorified as the one single impetus for achieving qualitative social change. Qualitative, because change from oppression and exploitation to social equity and genuine justice.

In the estimate of great proletarian advocates – Mao Tse Tung calls them servants of the working class – like Frederick Engels, Karl Marx and Ivan Vladimir Lenin, the workers are the vanguard class. Because of their complete dispossession of material wealth, the workers alone are imbued with such degree of selflessness that it enables them to banner a social system in which man’s exploitation by his fellowman can no longer exist, social classes forever abolished, and among humanity pervades a genuine fraternal concern for one another.
