Next to reports about her life and struggle a video film about her was shown, music played and poems written by her presented. Besides various books especially her weekly articles in a newspaper have influenced whole generations of revolutionaries and show them a way in countless questions of revolutionary life and struggle without stopping at borders of different revolutionary organisations.
