‘Whole world should unite to defeat the American invaders and their lackeys’: controversy sparked online by ‘red songs’ at concert in Beijing
Music from the turbulent period of the Cultural Revolution featured prominently at event at the Great Hall of the People
A concert that featured “red songs” praising the Chinese Communist revolution and Mao Zedong, staged in a style reminiscent of the Cultural Revolution, has sparked controversy online after it was held at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.
The show came at a politically sensitive time as the 50th year anniversary of the start of the Cultural Revolution approaches on May 16. The political mass movement created some of the most violent upheaval in China since the foundation of the People’s Republic in 1949.
It flashed images such as photographs of Mao and President Xi Jinping, as well as propaganda posters from the Mao-era, including the Cultural Revolution.
One poster read “the people of the whole world should unite to defeat the American invaders and their lackeys”.
It was the headline of an article penned by Mao in 1970 to voice support for Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia in the war against the US.
Most of the music performed during the concert was so-called “red songs” praising the party and its leadership, mainly produced during the height of Communist propaganda in the Mao era.
The show included big hits during the Cultural Revolution, particularly Sailing the seas depends on the helmsman, a revolutionary song praising Mao’s leadership and comparing his thoughts to “the sun that never sets”.
Some songs also praised Xi, including one about his visit to a steamed bun shop in Beijing in December 2013, which was widely publicised in state media to burnish his “man of the people” credentials.
Some people commenting online accused the show of praising the Cultural Revolution, a mass political movement unleashed by Mao in May 1966 that turned into 10 years of social upheaval and unrest, ahead of its 50th anniversary.
Some also drew comparisons between the show and the campaign to promote “red culture” in Chongqing under the city’s since disgraced leader Bo Xilai. He is now serving a life sentence for corruption.

Two Horses of Genghis Khan (Documentary Film 2009)
A promise, an old, destroyed horse head violin and a song believed lost lead the singer Urna back to Outer Mongolia. Her grandmother was forced to destroy her once loved violin in the tumult of the Chinese Cultural Revolution. The ancient song of the Mongols, "The Two Horses of Genghis Khan", was engraved on the violin's neck. Only the violin's neck and head survived the cultural storm. Now it is time to fulfill the promise that Urna made to her grandmother. Arrived in Ulan Bator, Urna brings the still intact parts of the violin - head and neck - to Hicheengui, a renowned maker of horse head violins, who will build a new body for the old instrument in the coming weeks. Then, Urna leaves for the interior to look there for the song's missing verses. But she will be disappointed. None of the people whom she meets on the way appears to still know the old melody of the Mongols.

Important celebration! In May 1966, Mao Zedong, started the Cultural Revolution in China which was aimed to get rid of the capitalists and reactionaries who had taken over the communist party and kidnapped the revolution. The situation is similar in today’s China, were the communist party has been transformed to an agent for the capitalist class. The masses in China should again follow the Great Helmsman, purge the corrupt party clique in Beijing and the new red guards should lead a mass movement to revitalize the revolution, make socialism happen by confiscating the capitalist’s properties and make China a great socialist country on the way to communism!
Song: “Sailing the Seas Depends on the Helmsman”, 大海航行靠舵手 (Dà hǎi háng xíng kào duò shǒu).

Song Dong grew up during the Cultural Revolution and has watched neighborhoods of his youth radically change as Beijing became an international urban center. As a result, his artistic practice is fueled by nostalgia and respect for traditional methods and materials. "Wisdom of the Poor: Living with Pigeons" (2005-06), surrounded by Chinese Buddhist sculpture in the Paul and Helen Bernat Gallery, references a traditional courtyard residence found in Beijing’s older neighborhoods. On Wednesdays from 5–8 pm and Saturdays from 11 am–2 pm, visitors can enter the structure, where they experience tight proportions reminiscent of the artist’s childhood home, as well as the resourcefulness the compact neighborhoods inspired. Song recounts how residents would “borrow space from the sky” by extending their cramped living spaces into rooftop pigeon coops and sleeping behind the nests. The architectural installation pays tribute to the ingenuity of the poor born out of a difficult time in China’s history.

Someone in Hong Kong - and I suspect the instruction comes right from the top - is endeavouring to rewrite history. The crucial events that occurred there just short of fifty years ago, as a result of the spillover of China's Cultural Revolution in 1967, are being distorted and rewritten in such a way as to switch the roles of the participants; by making the villains seem the heroes and the heroes seem the villains.
Any inconvenient truth that doesn't fit into this parallax is conveniently 'lost' or 'misplaced' from the public record, so as to prevent historians from ever seeing the full picture. Only those of us still alive, who lived through those watershed events, can upset this applecart.

The Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution, commonly known as the Cultural Revolution (Chinese: 文化大革命; pinyin: Wénhuà Dàgémìng), was a social-political movement that took place in the People's Republic of China from 1966 through 1976. Set into motion by Mao Zedong, then Chairman of the Communist Party of China, its stated goal was to enforce socialism in the country by removing capitalist, traditional and cultural elements from Chinese society, and to impose Maoist orthodoxy within the Party. The revolution marked the return of Mao Zedong to a position of absolute power after the failed Great Leap Forward. The movement politically paralyzed the country and significantly affected the country economically and socially.
The Revolution was launched in May 1966. Mao alleged that bourgeois elements were infiltrating the government and society at large, aiming to restore capitalism. He insisted that these "revisionists" be removed through violent class struggle. China's youth responded to Mao's appeal by forming Red Guard groups around the country. The movement spread into the military, urban workers, and the Communist Party leadership itself. It resulted in widespread factional struggles in all walks of life. In the top leadership, it led to a mass purge of senior officials who were accused of taking a "capitalist road", most notably Liu Shaoqi and Deng Xiaoping. During the same period Mao's personality cult grew to immense proportions.

Two Horses of Genghis Khan.Documentary 2009
Two Horses of Genghis Khan (Documentary Film 2009) A promise, an old, destroyed horse head violin and a song believed lost lead the singer Urna back to Outer Mongolia. Her grandmother was forced to destroy her once loved violin in the tumult of the Chinese Cultural Revolution.

50yr Anniversary, The Cultural Revolution in China
Important celebration! In May 1966, Mao Zedong, started the Cultural Revolution in China which was aimed to get rid of the capitalists and reactionaries who had taken over the communist party and kidnapped the revolution. The situation is similar in today’s China, were the communist party has been transformed to an agent for the capitalist class. The masses in China should again follow the Great Helmsman, purge the corrupt party clique in Beijing and the new red guards should lead a mass movement to revitalize the revolution, make socialism happen by confiscating the capitalist’s properties and make China a great socialist country on the way to communism!

Song Dong: Artist Statement for "Megacities Asia"
Song Dong grew up during the Cultural Revolution and has watched neighborhoods of his youth radically change as Beijing became an international urban center. As a result, his artistic practice is fueled by nostalgia and respect for traditional methods and materials. "Wisdom of the Poor: Living with Pigeons" (2005-06), surrounded by Chinese Buddhist sculpture in the Paul and Helen Bernat Gallery, references a traditional courtyard residence found in Beijing’s older neighborhoods. On Wednesdays from 5–8 pm and Saturdays from 11 am–2 pm, visitors can enter the structure, where they experience tight proportions reminiscent of the artist’s childhood home, as well as the resourcefulness the compact neighborhoods inspired. Song recounts how residents would “borrow space from the sky” by extending... -
Through a Glass Darkly
Someone in Hong Kong - and I suspect the instruction comes right from the top - is endeavouring to rewrite history. The crucial events that occurred there just short of fifty years ago, as a result of the spillover of China's Cultural Revolution in 1967, are being distorted and rewritten in such a way as to switch the roles of the participants; by making the villains seem the heroes and the heroes seem the villains. Any inconvenient truth that doesn't fit into this parallax is conveniently 'lost' or 'misplaced' from the public record, so as to prevent historians from ever seeing the full picture. Only those of us still alive, who lived through those watershed events, can upset this applecart. -

‘Whole world should unite to defeat the American invaders and their lackeys’: controversy sparked online by ‘red songs’ at concert in Beijing
Music from the turbulent period of the Cultural Revolution featured prominently at event at the Great Hall of the People
A concert that featured “red songs” praising the Chinese Communist revolution and Mao Zedong, staged in a style reminiscent of the Cultural Revolution, has sparked controversy online after it was held at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.
The show came at a politically sensitive time as the 50th year anniversary of the start of the Cultural Revolution approaches on May 16. The political mass movement created some of the most violent upheaval in China since the foundation of the People’s Republic in 1949.
It flashed images such as photographs of Mao and President Xi Jinping, as well as propaganda posters from the Mao-era, including the Cultural Revolution.
One poster read “the people of the whole world should unite to defeat the American invaders and their lackeys”.
It was the headline of an article penned by Mao in 1970 to voice support for Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia in the war against the US.
Most of the music performed during the concert was so-called “red songs” praising the party and its leadership, mainly produced during the height of Communist propaganda in the Mao era.
The show included big hits during the Cultural Revolution, particularly Sailing the seas depends on the helmsman, a revolutionary song praising Mao’s leadership and comparing his thoughts to “the sun that never sets”.
Some songs also praised Xi, including one about his visit to a steamed bun shop in Beijing in December 2013, which was widely publicised in state media to burnish his “man of the people” credentials.
Some people commenting online accused the show of praising the Cultural Revolution, a mass political movement unleashed by Mao in May 1966 that turned into 10 years of social upheaval and unrest, ahead of its 50th anniversary.
Some also drew comparisons between the show and the campaign to promote “red culture” in Chongqing under the city’s since disgraced leader Bo Xilai. He is now serving a life sentence for corruption.

Two Horses of Genghis Khan (Documentary Film 2009)
A promise, an old, destroyed horse head violin and a song believed lost lead the singer Urna back to Outer Mongolia. Her grandmother was forced to destroy her once loved violin in the tumult of the Chinese Cultural Revolution. The ancient song of the Mongols, "The Two Horses of Genghis Khan", was engraved on the violin's neck. Only the violin's neck and head survived the cultural storm. Now it is time to fulfill the promise that Urna made to her grandmother. Arrived in Ulan Bator, Urna brings the still intact parts of the violin - head and neck - to Hicheengui, a renowned maker of horse head violins, who will build a new body for the old instrument in the coming weeks. Then, Urna leaves for the interior to look there for the song's missing verses. But she will be disappointed. None of the people whom she meets on the way appears to still know the old melody of the Mongols.

Important celebration!

The situation is similar in today’s China, were the communist party has been transformed to an agent for the capitalist class. The masses in China should again follow the Great Helmsman, purge the corrupt party clique in Beijing and the new red guards should lead a mass movement to revitalize the revolution, make socialism happen by confiscating the capitalist’s properties and make China a great socialist country on the way to communism!

Song Dong grew up during the Cultural Revolution and has watched neighborhoods of his youth radically change as Beijing became an international urban center. As a result, his artistic practice is fueled by nostalgia and respect for traditional methods and materials. "Wisdom of the Poor: Living with Pigeons" (2005-06), surrounded by Chinese Buddhist sculpture in the Paul and Helen Bernat Gallery, references a traditional courtyard residence found in Beijing’s older neighborhoods. On Wednesdays from 5–8 pm and Saturdays from 11 am–2 pm, visitors can enter the structure, where they experience tight proportions reminiscent of the artist’s childhood home, as well as the resourcefulness the compact neighborhoods inspired. Song recounts how residents would “borrow space from the sky” by extending their cramped living spaces into rooftop pigeon coops and sleeping behind the nests. The architectural installation pays tribute to the ingenuity of the poor born out of a difficult time in China’s history.

A Chronicle of the Excesses of Chairman Mao's Cultural Revolution in China in the Late 1960s (2001)
Red Scarf Girl is a memoir written by Ji-li Jiang about her experiences during the Cultural Revolution of China. The book's foreword is written by David Henry Hwang. Both versions are popular but most schools have access to the foreword version. Ji-li was at the top of her class and the da-dui-zhang, or Student Council President, of her school. However, her father prevents her from auditioning for the Central Liberation Army Arts Academy due to their political status, which she had no knowledge of at the time. Her family is considered a "Black Family", because her grandfather was a landlord and her father was considered a "rightist", (though her father reassured her that he is not). Many people accuse Ji-li of her family's old ways, or "Four Olds" and the "Five Black Categories." that Cha... -

Chairman Mao (Mao Zedong or Mao Tse Tung) is the founder of the People's Republic of China in 1949 and one of the founders of the Chinese Communist party in 1921. He is recognized as one of the most prominent Communist theoreticians. He is also known as a great poet.
Mao Zedong was a very practical person before 1949. He did many thorough investigations about China and he developed his theories based on his studies. He was so successful in his early years that people worshipped him and everyone loved him.
Things changed after 1949. Mao was a great thinker, but he had no respect to any existing laws. Basically he was the law and he could not allow anybody else to chanllenge him. He challenged and destroyed the traditional Chinese culture, good and bad. He gave woman the same right as man, but destroyed the traditional value of woman. This also made him very unrealistic, as he said in a poem, "Ten thousand years is too long, seize the day." The Great Leap Forward (1958) is a direct result of such thinking.
During the Cultural Revolution (1966-76), everything took a very long pause except constant class struggle and population growth. Inflation was zero and salary freezed for everyone. Education was badly damaged. Mao developed his fighting (or struggling) philosophy in his late years, as he said, "Fighting with heaven, fighting with earth, and fighting with human being, what a great pleasure!" China was isolated from the rest of the world and nobody knew the outside world at all.

Chairman Mao (Mao Zedong or Mao Tse Tung) is the founder of the People's Republic of China in 1949 and one of the founders of the Chinese Communist party in 1921. He is recognized as one of the most prominent Communist theoreticians. He is also known as a great poet.
Mao Zedong was a very practical person before 1949. He did many thorough investigations about China and he developed his theories based on his studies. He was so successful in his early years that people worshipped him and everyone loved him.
Things changed after 1949. Mao was a great thinker, but he had no respect to any existing laws. Basically he was the law and he could not allow anybody else to chanllenge him. He challenged and destroyed the traditional Chinese culture, good and bad. He gave woman the same right as man, but destroyed the traditional value of woman. This also made him very unrealistic, as he said in a poem, "Ten thousand years is too long, seize the day." The Great Leap Forward (1958) is a direct result of such thinking.
During the Cultural Revolution (1966-76), everything took a very long pause except constant class struggle and population growth. Inflation was zero and salary freezed for everyone. Education was badly damaged. Mao developed his fighting (or struggling) philosophy in his late years, as he said, "Fighting with heaven, fighting with earth, and fighting with human being, what a great pleasure!" China was isolated from the rest of the world and nobody knew the outside world at all.

Red Scarf Girl is a memoir written by Ji-li Jiang about her experiences during the Cultural Revolution of China. The book's foreword is written by David Henry Hwang. Both versions are popular but most schools have access to the foreword version.
Ji-li was at the top of her class and the da-dui-zhang, or Student Council President, of her school. However, her father prevents her from auditioning for the Central Liberation Army Arts Academy due to their political status, which she had no knowledge of at the time. Her family is considered a "Black Family", because her grandfather was a landlord and her father was considered a "rightist", (though her father reassured her that he is not). Many people accuse Ji-li of her family's old ways, or "Four Olds" and the "Five Black Categories." that Chairman Mao protests against. Ji-li must deal with the difficult choice between her educational and political future or her family. This book describes her experiences with the Cultural Revolution, including being betrayed by her classmates, helping to destroy the Four Olds, attempting to become a Red Guard and the constant terror of arrest. Though, towards the end, Jiang Ji-li realizes that her goals no longer define her but rather her responsibilities.
At the setting, during the summer, China is currently in the Cultural Revolution. The story scopes on Ji-Li Jiang, the main character of the story. Although selected to audition for the Liberation Army, Ji-li is dissuaded by her parents, who know their "black background" will prevent her from making it in anyway. The Campaign Against the Four Olds is illustrated when she and her friends watch as a crowd tears down a "superstitious" store sign and enthusiastically destroys it. The Da-zi-bao craze then begins, and everyone in her class is assigned to write these posters. Some very easily write horrendous slanders against the teachers, but Ji-li cannot bring herself to insult her teachers. One day, she sees a da-zi-bao implying she has a relationship with a male teacher, and her parents tell her to stay at home to avoid embarrassment. When she comes to school again, she is nominated to become a Red Successor for the future generation of Red Guards but her bad class background is revealed to the class by Du Hai and she is excluded from the nomination. She is devastated because of this, but knows she can do nothing about it because her father informed her earlier in the book that it was not a good idea to audition.
The summer starts off a bit disappointing for Ji-Li because graduation tests are terminated, but she then finds out that she is going to Shi-yi Junior High School because of her teachers' recommendations. Unfortunately, her teacher's recommendations to schools become invalidated and everyone in her neighborhood is forced to go to Xin-zha Junior High School because of the region that they had residence in. Soon, the campaign started promoting house searches for "Four Olds" items and treasures. Song Po-po, their housekeeper, is eventually fired due to the family's fear of being accused of exploiting workers. Then, the Red Guards find a knife in the garbage with some of their family's suspicious burnt photos. Six Fingers accompanied by several Red Guards start their raid when the Jiangs are asleep. Their house is trashed and they lose many of their things that were considered "Four Olds."
Ji-Li comes to junior high school after the summer. Her father is detained for "establishing counterrevolutionary ties and listening to foreign radio." Her mother's salary is also reduced. Their family is going through their darkest ages. However, they manage to hold on and not give up. All schools are then closed and Ji-Li and her classmates are sent to the countryside to do hard labor on the fields. She comes back and takes care of her family. Eventually, Ji-Li moves to the United States of America. Ji-Li started a company to bring the western and Chinese cultures together.

Bette Bao Lord (Chinese: 包柏漪, Pinyin: Bāo Bóyì; born November 3, 1938) is a Chinese American writer and civic activist for human rights and democracy.
She was born in Shanghai, China. With her mother and father, Dora and Sandys Bao, she came to the United States at the age of eight when her father, a British-trained engineer, was sent there in 1946 by the Chinese government to purchase equipment. In 1949 Bette Bao Lord and her family were stranded in the United States when Mao Zedong and his communist rebels won the civil war in China. Bette Bao Lord has written eloquently about her childhood experiences as a Chinese immigrant in the post-World War II United States in her autobiographical children's book In the Year of the Boar and Jackie Robinson. In this book she describes her efforts to learn English and to become accepted by her classmates and how she succeeds with the help of baseball and Jackie Robinson.
Bette went to public schools in Brooklyn and New Jersey, and earned a bachelor's in Political Science at Tufts University in 1959 and a master's at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy in 1960. She worked as Assistant to the Director at the East-West Center, in Hawai`i, and as program officer at the Fulbright Program for professors, in Washington, DC.[1]
In 1962, as refugees surged into Hong Kong, Bette's mother, Dora Bao, conceived and carried out a plan to get her third daughter, nicknamed Sansan (Putonghua, Sānsān, "Threethree")[2] out of the People's Republic of China; both Sansan and Bette wanted to tell Sansan's story, so they made tape recordings, first of Sansan telling her story, then of Bette interviewing Sansan. Bette made more than 250 pages of notes, and then wrote the book, going back to Sansan with more questions and interviews along the way.[3] Sansan was a bridesmaid at Bette's wedding to Winston Lord, a Foreign Service Officer.[4]
Winston became a principal adviser to Henry Kissinger on relations with the PRC, and in 1973, he and Bette had a visit with her family in the PRC, a visit which inspired Bette to write Spring Moon.[5]
Spring Moon (1981), which spans the times from pre-revolutionary China to Nixon's visit, was an international bestseller and American Book Award nominee for best first novel. The Middle Heart (1996) spans 70 years of modern Chinese history, ending in 1989 with the student-led demonstrations at Tiananmen Square. Her children's book, In the Year of the Boar and Jackie Robinson, has become a classic used in schools nationwide. Her true stories of Chinese people, Legacies: A Chinese Mosaic, was also a bestseller and chosen by Time Magazine as one of the five best non-fiction works of the year. Ms. Lord's works have received numerous awards and been translated into 15-20 languages.
In addition to chairing Freedom House, Ms. Lord has served on many other boards including the Newseum, The Freedom Forum, the International Broadcasting Board of Governors, the Council on Foreign Relations and WNET.
Bette Bao Lord is a recipient of seven honorary degrees (including Notre Dame, Tufts, and Pepperdine) and many awards as author, democracy advocate and outstanding immigrant. These include the USIA Award for Outstanding Contributions. President Clinton in 1998 presented her the first Eleanor Roosevelt Award for Human Rights and hailed her as "someone who writes so powerfully about the past and is working so effectively to shape the future."
