"The value of a man was reduced to his immediate identity and nearest possibility. To a vote. To a number. To a thing. Never was a man treated as a mind. As a glorious thing made up of star dust." - Rohith Vemula
Truer words have never been said.
Dear Rohith Vemula,
You would've turned 27 today. It's saddening that a bright mind like you has left us to due to a cruel system that only thinks of identity, votes and numbers.
You have woken a lot of us up to realizing that some harsh realities exist, and it's us and only us who need to wake up a dormant system, to bring a much needed change for a better society, where people are, as you have said, treated as a mind, as glorious things made of stardust. We will fight, struggle, get beaten, but will bring about the change.
You are in a far far far better world, wherever you are right now.
