Simone is pictured taking cover during the liberation of Paris in August 19, 1944. Members of the French Resistance are photographed in the midst of a battle against German troops during the Liberation of Paris. We see a man in makeshift army fatigues to the left and a young man on the right. Then, most strikingly, we see a woman in shorts, a patterned top, and a military hat in the center. The photograph of this young female fighter would become a symbol of women’s involvement in the Resistance. Her name was Simone Segouin, also known by her nom de guerre Nicole Minet. When this photo was taken she was 18 years old. The girl had killed two Germans in the Paris fighting two days previously and also had assisted in capturing 25 German prisoners of war during the fall of Chartres. In 1944, at the height of the Nazi occupation of France, she joined the Francs-Tireurs et Partisans (Free-shooters and Partisans, or FTP) – a combat alliance made up of militant communists and French nationalists. Simone Segouin poses with a German MP 40 with which she is most proficient. Simone was very much in the latter camp.

Who are freedom fighters, what they do, and whom do they serve? Literally speaking, a freedom fighter is anyone who challenges the existing political order and fights for his/her own freedom and the freedom of his people. However, it is often that someone who is (was) involved in a peaceful demonstration for freedom is labeled as a political leader rather than a freedom fighter. Although the term “freedom fighter” itself is closely associated with India, where it is officially used for those who took part in the nation’s quest for independence, members of revolutionary organizations throughout the world can also be called freedom fighters. Americas’ Sons of Liberty and South Africa’s Umkhonto we Sizwe are few prominent examples. So without wasting any more time let’s start with the 12 most famous freedom fighters in recent history. 10.
