Red Rosa

'Epitaph, 1919' by Bertolt Brecht is a short poem to the memory of Rosa Luxemberg.
The brick monument to Karl Liebknecht and Rosa Luxemburg (1926) in Berlin commemorated the ill-fated Spartacist 1919 uprising. It was designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. The Nazis had it destroyed in 1933.

I was at the LLL demonstration, it was quite moving. May all of them stay in our minds forever, may the capital walls fall, may we reach the next stage of society.

"Freedom is always the freedom of dissenters"

-Rosa Luxemburg

It's the most brilliant quote ever

[XenagogueVicene]

She fought her "own" Capitalists while other so called "socialist" went along with German Imperialism, or British, or French. In a time of war she urged workers and soldiers to turn the guns around the main enemy is at home.
