Russia’s October Revolution: the timeless values
8/11/15
November 7, 1917,
the Great Socialist Revolution in Russia. Medieval and feudal values
were swept aside and people's power was internationalized, creating public
services of excellence, making available public resources as universal
property, implementing regimes of social mobility and externalizing the
Revolution to the four corners of the Earth.
November 7, in the Gregorian Calendar, marks
the date of the October 25 Revolution in the Julian Calendar, the Great October
Socialist Revolution, which brought medieval societies into the front line of
development within one generation, which created a worldwide revolution
enshrining workers' rights, women's rights and human rights into Constitutional
law around the world.
The Russian
Revolution was an exercise in power to the people, implementing democracy,
freeing serfs, creating the proletariat, freeing women and giving them the
vote, taking children out of the mines, creating Trade Unions which defended
workers' rights against the hegemonistic tendencies of societies controlled by
Capitalists.
It was an exercise in massive programs of
literacy, freeing people constrained by the imposed yoke of ignorance, being
unable to read or write or communicate, it was an exercise in the creating of
public services - universal healthcare, universal education, the right to a
house, the right to a job, the right to social mobility, where excellence and
endeavor were rewarded over family connections or the power to bribe.
It was an exercise
in a universal movement of goodwill, brotherly and sisterly relations being
favored over differences in race, in creed, in ethnicity, in color; it was an
exercise in the implementation of social leaning programs worldwide. Whole
societies and countries were freed from the yoke of imperialism, colonies were
disbanded, people were educated, people were empowered, women were given
universal rights, universally.
Nowadays, in Russia and Eastern Europe countries, on November
7th, there are a lot of activities to commemorate the 98 years of
the great Russia’s
October Revolution.
In Russia, there
was about 5000 people participated in a march in Moskva capital. The
participants waved the flags of the Russia Communist party, the portraits of
Lenin, the sympols and banners of the former Soviet Union
and marching along the streets. They sang songs and shouted slogans praising
the October Revolution, the Communist Party and the Youth Union.
In Russia, the
November 7th is also the day to honor the soldiers. The marches are
operated in capital and many cities of the Russia to commemorate the historic
parade in 1945 when a lot of the Red Army units had been directly sent to the
front of the World War II, defeated the fascism.
At the Red
Square, the centre of Moskva, the march took place with the
participation of 45 groups representing units and offices of the Defense
Ministry and President Regiment in uniforms of 1941. Especially, marching with
5.500 people, there were 21 veterans who were in the parade of 1941.
The celebrations also
took place in many cities of Russia
with the careful preparation within a month before the rehearsal in the Red Square.
Meanwhile, in Belarus, the
anniversary of the October Revolution is recognized as the national holiday.
Representatives of the leftist movement and social organizations held the
anniversary solemnly and laid flowers at the Lenin monument.
