December 24 marks the Memorial Day of Thanthai Periyar (E.V. Ramasamy), a towering social reformer who reshaped Tamil society through rationalism, self-respect, and social justice.

Periyar dedicated his life to eradicating caste discrimination, superstition, and inequality that oppressed millions. Through the *Self-Respect Movement*, he challenged blind faith, patriarchal norms, and Brahminical dominance, urging people to think rationally and live with dignity. His fearless opposition to caste hierarchy and his advocacy for women’s rights, including self-respect marriages and gender equality, were revolutionary for his time.

As the founder of the *Dravidar Kazhagam*, Periyar laid the ideological foundation for the Dravidian movement, which later shaped modern Tamil Nadu’s politics, education reforms, and social justice policies. His thoughts on rationalism, atheism, social equality, and anti-caste ideology continue to influence generations.

On this Memorial Day, we remember Periyar not just as a leader, but as a relentless voice against injustice. His call for “Think, Question, and Rebel” remains relevant in today’s society, reminding us that true liberation comes through critical thinking and self-respect.

Periyar lives on through his ideas, movements, and the continuous struggle for an equal and just society.
