Allen Ginsberg is one of the people who contribution of Bangladesh liberation war. Bangladeshi people never forget the role of Allen Ginsberg independence war. He was an American poet and lyricist. Allen Ginsberg was born on June 3, 1926, at Beth Isabel Hospital in New York City, USA. He was born in a Russian Jewish family. After his birth, his name was taken from his father and grandfather Avorum Ginsberg. Later he changed his name, Allen Ginsberg. His father Louise Ginsberg was a school teacher and poet. Louise Ginsberg's poems were published in the New York Times Magazine. Ginsberg's mother Naomi was a believer in Marxist and nudity. Since childhood, Ginsberg has grown up in the political environment. His mother was a leftist politician and many secret meetings of the leftists were held at their home. So he became aware of politics at a young age. He has started writing in the New York Times Magazine about various political issues, labour rights and World War II from the very young age. But in his short time, he wanted to become a law business, but after reading Walt Whitman's poetry in school life, he falls in love with poetry. At that time Edgar Allen Poe became his favourite poet.

In 1943, he graduated from the Eastside High School and received a scholarship from the Hebrew Association at Columbia University. Here's his friendship with Neil Cassidy and Jack Kerouac. These people who later led the Ginsberg Bit generation. After getting acquainted with them, Ginsberg started writing seriously. He also involved The United States Navy in the transportation of goods by sea to pay for the study costs, and travelled in many other places, including Portico. Bit literature is separate literature from American literature, but not completely disconnected from American literature. Bit writers define bits as "private is public". The author's personal experiences and memories include most of the bit of literature. Though the writings of Bits are written in the light of their own experiences and memories, it is not a melodrama, readers here will find themselves, find their own voices. Their writings include youth and rebellion. Their writings were historic and political guidelines. All the unrest in the society had their protest against immorality. Ginsberg said, "It can't be nice literature by giving vast like to God and simply giving deep like to God." Literature must be realistic." For this reason, Rabindranath Tagore did not think of a great poet in his eyes. In his view, Jibanananda Das is the most talented poet of Bengal. Although he did not read all the writings of Rabindranath Tagore. He may have read some of his writings, and if most of the writings were read, I would have thought that his opinions might have been different.

In 1955, Ginsberg left all his work and concentrated on writing poetry. And shortly afterwards, he wrote his famous poem 'Howl', which inspired him to choose skyrocketing fame and poetry as a career. Ginsberg was anti-war When World War II ended, he was 22 years old. Apart from World War II in his life, he has seen the American aggression in Korea, Vietnam, and the Middle East. See the atrocities of Pakistani occupation forces in Bangladesh. 

Ginsberg said about how the war is a country of destroying merit: "The new generation that develops after being wrecked by a country through war, becomes sick and insane. Because the political and economic situation destroys the next meritorious generation."

Wherever the war is organized anywhere in the world, Ginsberg has always protested. Sometimes it may have come down on the highway, sometimes in poetry, sometimes collecting funds for war victims. When the United States invaded Vietnam in 1960, he made a street movement on the street. At that time the government filed a case against the activists to stop the movement, expelled them from the government jobs. Yet their movement did not stop, and due to the pressure of the masses, the United States finally ended the war in Vietnam. Ginsberg was the most critical of the US position on Israeli and Palestinian issues.

 He said,"Why can't each Israel and Palestine stay independent of 2 independent states?"? Instead of accepting one another, but willing to destroy? This is only the will of America. "

Once he went to Israel to talk to the Palestinians, then he was driven out of Israel by the government. Ginsberg's words about the United Nations are very important.

 He said,"The United Nations is an inefficient institution, similar to a club.". Heads of states of different countries come here, chat, tea drinks coffee, bathroom work; Till this, No problem is solved by them. "

The American government tried to scold him for repeated and direct comments and to speak against the government's crime, but they have always failed. Meanwhile, in 1970, police arrested him in the anti-Nixon campaign, but the fear of arrest could not stop him. In 1980, he was again in the anti-government movement, the issue of President Reagan's Nicaragua policy. In any case, the government has once again tried to seduce the FBI on the charge of drug trafficking because he could not keep him down. It was a little easier for them. Allen Ginsberg was a drug addict. But the government's efforts also failed. Ginsberg was in favour of controlling the drug but was not in favour of closing it completely. His argument about the drug was, 
"We are not addicted to destruction. I have taken drugs to find out new things. "Although there was a life of drug addiction, at the last moment, due to excessive addiction, many meritorious youths got poisonous after seeing them drowning prematurely.
