Know a page (site) where I can find an interview with a victim of China's cultural revolution?\nI'd be thankful if you could give me the adress. (I mean Mao Zedong's revolution). \nC'mon! It's two points! I'll even remember choosing one of you for best answer! Lol...

There is a contributor named Rob Wallace that you might want to do a search on (a few recent postings).\n\nI would be interested on your take of my study below Nik.

i think that the economic revolution actually affected women in China and all over the world more than the cultural revolution.. In fact , AFTER the economic revolution , there was a cultural revolution\n\nI the past , women were treated almost like a piece of nothing , they were meant to give birth to babies , raise them , takecare of their husbands and clean the houses .. Only \n\nAfter the wars , the world war 1 , 2 and all the wars all around the world , women started asking for their "freedom" ( yea right what a freedom they got ) Men gave them the opportunity to work in industrial fields NOT BECAUSE THEY FINALLY BELIEVED IN THEIR CAPACITIES , BUT BECAUSE THEY STARTED NEEDING THEIR HELP OUTSIDE HOMES TOO . SO WOMEN NOW HELP MEN OUTSIDE HOMES , THEY HELP THEM BRING MONEY BACK HOME , DO MEN HELP US INSIDE THE HOMES ?

Erm...if you want really detailed and true story...\nI suggest you to go back in time (laughs) but since so far we aren't capable of it yet, so your best shot is at archives(arkib) and going to the site and asking the locals is worth a shot and you can also try at the library but you can't actually get the full list of soldiers and people who are involved because that is like impossible even if you get the recruits names from that specific place but you must know that there are others like villagers that helped too...If you want every of their names...i think its not possible because they are villagers and their name are not recorded anywhere...\nAnd if you want the all that are involved, do you count the people that did petit jobs like maybe lke the person who cooked for the men before they fight...You see what i mean?\nAs for the dates, times, i am sure you can get from the national archives or national library...

"Marching and killing people in their path"...sorry, I find this funny...\nok, If you'll say the same about G.Washington.\nWow...you obviously haven't a clue dude...\nNo sweat, most Westerners (esp. N.Americans) don't when it comes to China.\nLong March (1934-35) was, yes, a trek... starting in the southeast of China to the west/central provinces, and finally up north to the Party stronghold in N.Shaanxi province.  It was essentially a tour of duty to avoid the KMT army and Japanese to gain a strategic advantage in the north. Thousands died on the march, and only a fraction of the original marchers survived until the end. However, once the communists had a northern stronghold, they were better suited to fight the Japanese and KMT government. \nThe Japanese were raping, killing every Chinese they could see, and the KMT was doing nothing about it...if it weren't for the communist party fighting for the people, China would have completely been taken over by Japan during WW2. The Long March is one of the greatest moments of endurance and perseverence in the history of the CCP - they were only ones defending the country...many people willingly joined the long march in ardent support of Mao and the CCp in fighting the Japanese and defeating the corrupt regime of Chiang Kai Shek. \nThe history of the CCP is an incredibly noble one leading up to their final victory in 1949 - a victory that was celebrated by the people....there was so much anti KMT fervor that Chiang had no choice but to escape to Taiwan and ask for American assistance. The long march is essentially 'the golden age' of the CCP's struggle to bring about a people's democratic dictatorship.\nAnd the anti-japanese war/long march, is one of the reasons that Chinese today have faith and believe in their government. Because it has, and will always fight for its people. \n(As seen in raising 400 million people out of poverty since 1980)\nYes, China today has many problems, but it has only been developing for a short period. (Think of the problems the US had early 1800s)...either way, the Long March is one of most important and defining moments in the rise of Mao and Communism in China. Chinese are proud of this history. And to slander it, or support the KMT who was letting its people get slaughtered, or to underplay the viciousness of the Japanese is both naive and ignorant on anyone's part. The CCP saved China during the 30s and 40s. By the 40s, the US was helping the Communists, not the faltering KMT. 'Flying Tigers, Stillwell, etc. Even the Canadians were sending doctors to help the CCP (Norman Bethune) Once the long march was succesful, Communist victory in both the civil and anti-Japanese war was inevitable. \nStart studying Chinese history if you want to understand the world we live in.\nHope this answer suffices.

You could talk about many things about the Korean War. You can talk about the war and how it lead to the Cold War and the fear of spreading Communism, you can talk about how the United States first started to integrate black and white soldiers (I think), you can talk about China's aid to the N. Koreans and how it boosted Chinese sense of nationalism, you can talk about war time propaganda that allowed the Chinese to dislike the Americans and US propaganda that allowed the Americans to dislike the Chinese, you can talk about General McArthur and his views during the Korean War (he wanted to use the Korean War to start a war with Communist China), you can talk about how the United Nations sent it's first batch of soldiers (I think), that's all I can think of. Good luck! p.s. the I thinks is what I kinda remember, but I'm not positively sure.

I found something for Wang Ming as two separate words-someone's name. The website below has a more complete description, but here is a quote to summarize him," the label given by Mao to Wang as a representative of dogmatism, subjectivism and sectarianism hits the nail on the head. "  Perhaps with this information, you can reread the reference to a computer guru and see if this definition fits.

No, I could not tolerate living under a Communist dictatorship.  I appreciate that it has modernized somewhat, but it's still communism.  And as to the Chinese culture, I wonder how much of it is left after the Maoist "cultural revolution."  \n\nEven if I thought I could learn the language (and I don't), I could not live there.

blorgo's posting made some good points, but I want to add a few things. \n\nFirst, it's going much too far to state the Taiwan is in any way "subordinate" to China. For one thing, there are still 20 or so nations that recognize the ROC and not the PRC. Only in the offical dis-information of PRC mythology does China control or administer anything having to do with Taiwan. In reality, Taiwan operates as a completely separate and sovereign nation, with all that that implies. The only real, concrete effect of China's insistence that "Taiwan is a part of China" is caused by the incredible economic and diplomatic resources devoted by China to try to restrict Taiwan's international and diplomatic "space", and China's spreading of misleading dis-information to the world and especially to its own citizens on the real issues involved. For example, all countries have an embassy in Taipei, only most of them can't CALL it an embassy. They have to call them "trade and culture offices".  \n\nDoes China have some sacred "right" to control every region where people speak Chinese and even identify themselves as ethically-Chinese? If so, then England can take "back" the USA, Canada, Austailia and New Zealand. Spain has a right to attack Mexico, Cuba, Texas, etc. Or?  \n\nThe Peoples Republic of China (PRC) has never at any time controlled Taiwan in any way or form. \n\nDuring the last decades of the last (Qing) imperial dynasty, the power of the central government was finally extended far enough to bring some degree of administrative control to some areas of Taiwan. That regime, however, was NOT the present PRC government, but rather the old, feudal regime that was overthrown in the 1911 revolution --a decade before the formation of the Chinese Communist party.\n\nSo, Taiwan may be said to have "belonged" in the past to the previous imperial Chinese regime, but to say that Taiwan today belongs to the PRC would be like saying Chechnya, Kazakhstan, Estonia, Lithuania and other (presently) independent nations "belong" to Russia, because the previous imperial Russian regime had at one time extended its control to those regions several generations ago.\n\nThe two major parties in the legislature are the DPP and the KMT. The KMT is the party of the late dictator Chiang Kai-Shek. They are trying to keep China happy, hoping it will give them advantages in the event that China gains control of Taiwan in the future. The DPP is by far the more patriotic and democratic of the two parties, and promotes the development of a Taiwan-centered national consciousness.\n\nTaiwan is now one of the most open societies in the world, and certainly in Asia. High standards of education, multi-party democracy, free press, freedom to protest. Taiwanese of all political stripes enjoy protesting. I have attended quite a few very large street demonstrations in the last few years. Some of them are celebratory and some of them are the rowdy and angry kind, but all are peaceful and no one gets hurt. The police are there, not to hinder the demonstrations but only in case a fight breaks out, just as in Europe or USA.\n\nIs it this kind of freedom that PRC leaders are afraid might spread to China?

God bless you. I hope you have a safe return. Anti-war protesters, as in the 60's were a disgrace to our nation. It was the worst decade in American history. It is the decade that changed everything. They were burning draft cards, bras, and anything else that represented the "establishment." Lot's lived in communes in filthy conditions, having group sex openly, sometimes in front of their children, and high on one drug or another. Woodstock was their crowning glory. Their offspring are today's liberals, as they were raised with the same beliefs. And look at the children of today's liberals, a generation of ill-mannered, misbehaved kids. The teachers today have a hell of a job. God help us, because these kids someday will make the decisions. You are a fine example of what a true American should be. Your parents should be very proud of you. They did a fine job raising you!  50--upper middle class-East coast

Right now I'm reading this random small journal written by a disgusted American journalist who had been living in Turkey during the time of the Armenian genocide.  A first-hand objective account of what happened!\nSo I just want to plea- please please READ and LEARN about what happened!  So many hidden truths can be uncovered by someone who has a passion for learning.\n\nJudith Herman writes, "After every atrocity one can expect to hear the same predictable apologies: it never happened; the victim lies; the victim exaggerates; the victim brought it upon herself; and in any case it is time to forget the past and move on.  The more powerful the perpetrator, the greater is his prerogative to name and define reality, and the more completely his arguments prevail."\n\nLook at Jay Lifton's book, "The Nazi Doctors" -about the holocaust that includes factual information about the genocide.\nOr Bernard Lewis's "The Emergence of Modern Turkey"\nA petition called "Taking a Stand Against the Turkish Government's Denial of the Armenian Genocide and Scholarly Corruption in the Academy" was signed by over a hundred distinguished writers and scholars including Arthur Miller, William Styron and Raul Hilberg.\nAll these people ARE NOT even ARMENIAN.\nElie Wiesel himself said,\n"I've talked to the President of Turkey about this.  I said to him: 'Why can't you admit what you did to the Armenians?  It would help your society.  It would cleanse you of your guilt.  You would gain something in the eyes of the world."\nLook up Morgenthau.  None of these people are Armenian.  They are all respected educated objective people.\nAnd those online sites?  Who wrote them?\nPerhaps that's why books are so good.  They can give you facts, accounts, and validate them with good solid (not misconstrued) evidence.

I believe that you will find this link somewhat useful as it does have dates that if you take the time might help you to track down the information that you are looking for because it seems that none want to put that information out where it can be found.  I even called the research department of the library on this - and they couldn't find the information.  Link is here:\n\nhttp://www.kansascity.com/mld/kansascity/news/opinion/14298154.htm\n\nYou will find the link in the "source" portion pretty informative.  Something that I ran into when I was trying to find it on my own on the net.

PBS's Frontline did a 3 part series on this...\n\nI have mixed emotions and mixed opinions on what happened.\n\nYes, the Chinese government went overboard in killing so many innocent students and if you know what really happened, they weren't just students. The protests had grown to a point of attracting many many other types of ppl.\n\nNow with that said, I am going to make an extremely unpopular statement/opinion. I am a marxist at heart and have studied the writings of Lenin in depth. Lenin, while a pacifist, knew that there were times to be use force to control mutiny.\n\nLenin wrote about the ones that will try to overthrow the idealism of a fair and equal society... the ones that won't accept the weak having the same or the ones that won't accept a no class system.\n\nWhile I know this incident was not about that.. I do realize that this incident threatened the fairly new communist Chinese regime. I truly believe the Chinese regime would have been weakened had they given into the protesters due to the vast number and the length of the protest... not justifying the slaughter but saying I understand the stopping of the protest.\n\nIn that Frontline series, the Chinese government warned them.. gave them days to leave... they chose to stay. They chose their destiny.
