This photo is for those who say rebellion is for the young. This man is likely a veteran of the 1960s-1970s, a generation that gave humanity an entire legacy of rebellion against injustice & war in almost every country--most notably Vietnam, which won against the brutal military might of US aggression. It’s a generation that can teach a thing or two. This man’s defiance may be all the more admirable since he knows full well what kind of damage a billy club can do to a human skull. He is facing off against riot cops before a football match in Fortaleza, Brazil yesterday.
