The Cultural Revolution Era

A legendary figure who sacrificed his life to save others
The Cultural Revolution

Everybody who knows the history of China knows that the Cultural Revolution is the era where the people of China faced tremendous hardship and uncertainty in their future. A lot of people were persecuted, many imprisoned and eventually died. There were a lot of stories about the Red Guards, the little Red Book and the turmoil resulting from political unrest. Check it it out in the cyber space.

During this period, a lot of artifacts that depict revolutionary ideas, culture and lifestyle. Below are some more from my collection of things produced during the Cultural Revolution.
