Show Notes
In 1966, the People’s Republic of China entered what became one of the most tumultuous periods in its history.
In a spasm of revolutionary upheaval primarily led by students, almost everyone in the country, including high-ranking communist officials, was a potential target for public humiliation, denunciations, torture, and hard labor.
The result was an entire generation of Chinese whose educations and careers were lost, and who vowed never to let political extremism run amok again.
