Abstract
This article rigorously examines the transgenerational impact of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's seminal 7th March speech through the lens of Pierre Bourdieu's theory of cultural Reproduction. Delivered in 1971, this speech catalyzed the Bengali independence movement and continues to shape political socialization in Bangladesh. By dissecting the speech as a potent form of cultural capital, this study elucidates its role in forming collective habitus and exerting symbolic power across generations. The analysis underscores the speech's enduring influence on national identity, civic engagement, and political discourse. The findings reveal significant practical and societal implications, suggesting the integration of this historical narrative into educational curricula and community initiatives to foster cohesive political consciousness.
