The long march to evil - CN
A compelling study of China's red emperor from Jung Chang and Jon Halliday exposes the true scale of Mao's oppression and genocidal manias.

During the first week of June 1966, pupils from a middle school in Beijing felt suddenly impelled to declare themselves part of Mao Zedong's (???) Cultural Revolution. They chose to demonstrate their devotion to the Great Helmsman by painting a poster which warned his enemies: "We will strike you to the ground and trample you."

To make their intentions doubly clear, they added: "We will be brutal."
