Angelica Hernandez Rodriguez, a first grader from the town of Maffo, woke up happy because she knows that this October 8 she will become a pioneer.
“We will be like Ché”, will be the oath phrase that will flow from her lips in her student square, when they will place around her neck the blue scarf, which will be knotted by her father for the first time, to see his daughter inaugurating a symbol that distinguishes throughout Cuba.
The tribute, accompanied by a flower as a gift, strengthens the value of a generation committed to make lasting the promise to study, fight and work in honor of a mortal human being, turned into a hero, a living legend, a universal giant. a universal giant.
But it is not only Angelica who receives her blue scarf for the first time. Other boys and other boys and girls in equal education, also laugh with happiness for exhibiting this accreditation that bets on a better future.
And it is that the act of pioneer initiation in homage to Che to become his faithful heirs, becomes in Maffo a song to the Homeland, an offering of gratitude to an Organization, where the dwarf princes learn to love Cuba.
Because this October 8, that blue scarf that combines with distinctive school clothes in first grade boys and girls, is the hope of a children’s universe that looks towards tomorrow to ensure continuity.
Because that reverence to the isosceles triangle of the scarf that represents the sky of the Homeland, whose vertices of the trilateral mean duties such as study, work, and fight for the revolutionary conquests, is the eternal homage of Maffo’s “New Pines”.
It is also the homage of Angelica Hernandez Rodriguez, as well as her peers, to give us the gift of a new world of peace, contributions and smiles, in a traditional day of blue scarves, in traditional day of blue kerchiefs, in remembrance of the Heroic Guerrilla, Che Guevara.
