Anti-Rightist Movement

“Son of the Revolution” is an autobiography written by Liang Heng. Heng shares his firsthand account of growing up in a very telling era in China. Not only does Heng take us through the milestone events of Mao’s Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution, but also through the Hundred Flowers Campaign, the Anti-Rightist Campaign as well as the Socialist Education Campaign. Heng provides a look into these historical pillars in Chinese history in a way that the Golf and Overfield texts could only dream of. It’s a truly breathtaking account of events that are still being felt throughout the nation today. Heng’s account first takes us through the Hundred Flowers Campaign. One of the major struggles of the revolution was to eliminate the tension…

The Hundred Flowers movement did effectively “coax the snakes out of their holes” and in June of 1957 Mao pivoted, editing his message and recasting it as a call to arms against all who dared speak against him and the party.

However, the people, to Mao’s surprise, weren’t completely happy with him and wanted to change some of his rules. When the power began to go to Mao’s head, he made many poor decisions like…

That is the first part in the psychological aspect of what pornography can do. The next step however is the worst part for us.

in general are weak or absent.” This is just one example of many academic and governmental surveysWendy McElroy, a Canadian individualist feminist and individualist anarchist, writes that “a cause-and-effect relationship is drawn between men viewing pornography and men attacking women, especially in the form of rape.

Due to the given circumstances of the play there isn’t much room to play around and image the plot in a different time period, but, Pellegrini used all of the open-ended aspects of the play to his advantage and gave them his unique touch to…

Research suggests that pornography is addictive because…

effect of smog and water in West Virginia burning. Nuclear destroys more people if it messes and causes more harm than other power sources but has problems less often. Nuclear provides a huge amount of energy about 37 million times more than a coal plant with the same amount of coal and does not make CO2 destroying the ozone or doesn 't create smog. So my point of view that talks and discussion solidified is going to seem like a cop-out, but I believe nuclear power is good but needs to be done…
