The document provides background information on Mao Zedong's Cultural Revolution in China from the 1910s-1970s. It discusses how Mao launched the movement in 1966 to remake Chinese culture and society along communist revolutionary lines. This involved attacking intellectuals, traditional culture, and the communist party establishment. Mao's Red Guards spread violence and turmoil across China as they destroyed heritage sites and persecuted opponents. The Cultural Revolution had disastrous social and economic consequences before Mao's death in 1976 led to the movement's end.
This document provides an overview of the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution in China from 1949-1966 that set the stage for the Cultural Revolution. It discusses the economic and social reforms under Mao Zedong including collectivization, the Great Leap Forward that caused famine, and Liu Shaoqi and Deng Xiaoping's subsequent reforms. The origins and aims of the Cultural Revolution are then examined, with Mao launching it in 1966 to purge "capitalist roaders" like Liu and Deng from power and establish communist ideology. Propaganda posters are analyzed as primary sources that spread Mao's message. The impacts on culture through "model works" and the perspectives of Chinese historians on evaluating Mao's legacy are also summarized.
1) The Great Leap Forward failed in the late 1950s, resulting in a massive famine that killed over 20 million people.
2) In the early 1960s, Mao lost some power and moderates implemented more realistic economic policies to address the famine.
3) In the mid-1960s, Mao launched the Cultural Revolution to remove capitalist and traditional influences and consolidate his power, forming the Red Guards student militia who spread violence and chaos.
4) By the late 1960s, order was restored but the Cultural Revolution continued political turmoil and cost many young people their education. Mao remained in power until his death in 1976.
After the failure of the Great Leap Forward, Mao Zedong urged China's youth to embrace revolution by joining the Red Guards militia units. The Red Guards led a major uprising known as the Cultural Revolution, which aimed to create a classless society. During the Cultural Revolution, the Red Guards shut down schools and universities while raiding the homes of wealthy citizens. By 1976, the Cultural Revolution had resulted in widespread chaos and civil war-like conditions in China, leading Mao to disband the Red Guards and end the revolution.
The document provides background information on Mao Zedong and China's Cultural Revolution. It describes how Mao was influenced by Marxist ideas and established communist rule in China. During the Cultural Revolution, Mao launched campaigns to purge Chinese society of old ideas and traditions. The Red Guards, mostly students, traveled China enforcing Mao's teachings and destroying cultural artifacts and sites. Personal accounts also describe the effects of the Cultural Revolution on families in China and Macau.
The document summarizes major events in modern Chinese history from the late 19th century to present day. It describes the fall of the Qing dynasty in 1912 and establishment of the Republic of China led by Sun Yat-sen. However, the republic faced weaknesses like disunity and foreign imperialism. Communist ideas grew under Mao Zedong, and civil war broke out between Nationalists and Communists. They temporarily united to fight the Japanese invasion from 1937-1945. The Communists emerged victorious in 1949, establishing the People's Republic of China under Mao's rule. His economic policies like the Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution had major impacts, though issues in China continue today around balancing reforms with communist ideals.
The document discusses Mao Zedong's Cultural Revolution in China from 1966-1976. It describes how Mao launched the Cultural Revolution to reassert his power and combat perceived threats of capitalism and revisionism. Radical intellectuals and youth groups like the Red Guards played a major role in purging bourgeois elements and eradicating traditional culture. This led to widespread factionalism and political and social turmoil throughout Chinese society over the next decade until Mao's death.

Product Design Trends in 2024 | Teenage EngineeringsPixeldarts
The realm of product design is a constantly changing environment where technology and style intersect. Every year introduces fresh challenges and exciting trends that mold the future of this captivating art form. In this piece, we delve into the significant trends set to influence the look and functionality of product design in the year 2024.
How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).
AI Trends in Creative Operations 2024 by Artwork Flow.pdfmarketingartwork
Creative operations teams expect increased AI use in 2024. Currently, over half of tasks are not AI-enabled, but this is expected to decrease in the coming year. ChatGPT is the most popular AI tool currently. Business leaders are more actively exploring AI benefits than individual contributors. Most respondents do not believe AI will impact workforce size in 2024. However, some inhibitions still exist around AI accuracy and lack of understanding. Creatives primarily want to use AI to save time on mundane tasks and boost productivity.
Organizational culture includes values, norms, systems, symbols, language, assumptions, beliefs, and habits that influence employee behaviors and how people interpret those behaviors. It is important because culture can help or hinder a company's success. Some key aspects of Netflix's culture that help it achieve results include hiring smartly so every position has stars, focusing on attitude over just aptitude, and having a strict policy against peacocks, whiners, and jerks.

Google's Just Not That Into You: Understanding Core Updates & Search IntentLily Ray
1. Core updates from Google periodically change how its algorithms assess and rank websites and pages. This can impact rankings through shifts in user intent, site quality issues being caught up to, world events influencing queries, and overhauls to search like the E-A-T framework.
2. There are many possible user intents beyond just transactional, navigational and informational. Identifying intent shifts is important during core updates. Sites may need to optimize for new intents through different content types and sections.
3. Responding effectively to core updates requires analyzing "before and after" data to understand changes, identifying new intents or page types, and ensuring content matches appropriate intents across video, images, knowledge graphs and more.

3. Responding effectively to core updates requires analyzing "before and after" data to understand changes, identifying new intents or page types, and ensuring content matches appropriate intents across video, images, knowledge graphs and more.

Desperate Famine
My daughter in the farm. My daughter, my daughter is in a tough place at the moment. Song
Xiao, and his husband, Shang Jie, is currently living in the countryside.
I am concerned about those two, and I wish I could support them as
famine has caused heavy starvation around the countryside. Even
though I want to help my daughter, I am living too far away as I am
teaching as a Professor in the Peking University. Famine has yet to
fully strike the city, but I can tell the impending starvation and
violence will start affecting the city sooner of later.
On 1958, The Great Leap Forward Campaign led by Mao Ze Dong was
supposedly a great plan that would transform our country into a
communist society. Mao’s rush to rapidly industrialize and collectivize
China backfired within three short years. I was extremely excited to
see what Mao has planned for our new China. Bam! Tears rapidly
trickled down my face as I continue reading the letter my daughter
sent me. Farmers and peasants were fighting each other for food,
violent scenes I couldn’t bear to imagine as Song Xiao described it.
Mao wanted this communist society to have unbelievable progression
in economy? In three short years, the campaign failed to achieve
everything planned. Major economy regressions, heavy famine and
violence were caused in the countryside.
3. As a Professor, my monthly salary is cut down every month
because of Mao’s “successful campaign”. When Mao started
this campaign, trying to improve China and turning it into a
communist society was the right choice to make, but Mao
failed to smoothly approach the situation. Forcing the
peasants in the fields to give up all their food and fairly divide
them all to each peasant. Mao’s action was an unbelievably
inequitable move, starting a new conflict between the
peasants. Peasants that work harder should be awarded with
more grains and resources, whereas the lazier ones will of
course be receiving less in gain.
Each day passes, and as the Great Leap Forward Campaign
was coming to an end. These three years was a huge
regression and Mao’s promise to make everyone’s life better
did the exact opposite. Famine caused extreme hunger
throughout the countryside, and Mao’s campaign caused
millions of Chinese peasants to die because of his foolish plan
As I saw people in the countryside rapidly stabbing each othe
to death so they could stuff the human flesh into their mouth
as blood dripped down to their necks like vampires. I wish
famine in the countryside would stop as soon as possible, and
I can’t bear with the fact that my daughter and son in law will
soon turn into skeletons with skin.
4. August 31, 1966
Off With Capitalism!
“Bombard the Head Quarters! Bombard the Head Quarters,”
citizens yelled out the window. On August 31st 1966, Chairma
Mao finally started the Cultural Revolution among us. I was ve
moved by the first step he took to start of launch of the Cultu
Revolution. Our leader, Mao Ze Dong, swam across the Yangtz
River, and leading the citizens of China to swim along. In my
opinion, this was a very significant progress, slowly gaining ba
the years lost in 1959. Shortly after the Yangtze River swim, M
published his first Dazibo, “Bombard the Headquarters!”
Revolutionizing China was definitely a very successful move
restoring the desperate famine period.
As I was teaching in the Peking University, many students wer
deeply moved by Mao’s action. Mao believed that the youth i
China would be the key to revolutionizing China, therefore, Jia
Qing organized many plays in the theatre to show the spirit of
China’s youth. After Mao gained trust and deep passion from
China’s youth, Mao quickly taken action and used them. One
morning, I arrived to work to see thousands of teachers and
students surrounding the stage like money were falling from t
sky. Then my body was shocked, jaws dropped, and I was
paralyzed. There he was, China’s leader, Mao Ze Dong, giving
speech to the students. I saw him organize all the students an
persuaded them into starting a new group, Red Guards.
5. • In order for Mao to achieve his goals successfully, he
pursued it by a massive mobilization of China’s youth and
grouped them into one organization, Red Guards. Our
Chairman ordered the Red Guards one plan, to punish
and destroy the “Four Old”, whoever sympathized the
“Four Old”, Mao’s enemies and whoever opposed Mao’s
ideas. Mao also knew this was going to happen, and he
wasn’t going to be Mr. Nice Guy and sympathize the
citizens of China. After he revolutionized China, he has
gotten everyone from young to old to obey his orders.
•
• After Mao has gotten almost everyone to obey his orders
and fear to never oppose him. Mao needed better and
more loyal successors that he knows will never betray his
beloved leader. Mao then tried to replace his current
successors to his most faithful and loyal people so they
could keep up with Mao’s thinking. Giving the Red
Guards the power of the party officials and troops
because they weren’t allowed to suppress their
movements as the Red Guards start abolishing the “Four
Olds”. I really hope Mao will have a way to seize
everything in plan or else things can go out of control
very easily and very shortly.

6. May 1st, 1967
Guards Out Of Control
The bright red blood spread around the floor as the Red
Guards surrounded me, taking out batons and chairs and
punishing me. For one stupid mistake that I’ve made, I was
late for work so I hurried my way to the university forgetting
my red book. The red guards glares at me as they checked
my whole body to find a little red spot, and with no luck, the
devilish grins was shown and my body was being tortured.
Mao’s original idea of mobilizing the Red Guards were to
stop any connections to the “Four Olds” and destroy it, but
the Red Guards are not simply a patriotic clan anymore, but
an devil chaotic punishers.
The Red Guards, after only one short year, went out of
control, like beasts destroying anything in their way. With
the right mind to ruin anything with a strong connection to
the “Four Olds” to a group of monster that destroys anything
with the slightest connection to them. Watching the Red
Guards out in the streets, kicking, punching and kneeing
people in the face and stomach. My eyes couldn’t bear to
stand the image of multiple Red Guards ransacking
thousands and millions of the citizens, and working, as a
Professor is very tough job when the students are keeping
track of every move you do.
7. Once the students in the Peking University were gathered
and mobilized as Red Guards in 1966, I knew something
is going to wrong sooner or later. It’s only been a year
since Mao has given a touching speech to the youth of
China and grouped the Red Guards. People were getting
lousier, arrogant, and most importantly, more violent. In
my years of teaching, this was the first time a student
ever yelled at me because I told him to quiet down.
Students were giving me an eye full of hatred and
power, like they’re saying, “I’m going to get you one day.”
I fear what Mao has brought to this world, and army of
arrogant and violent monsters.
The worst nightmare has come true, what I feared the
most has finally shown itself. When Red Guards see that
your not bringing a small red book, they assume that
you’re being disrespectful and that you’re disagreeing
with Mao’s intelligent quotes. They call you
rightists, counterrevolutionaries and capitalists, and they
humiliate your culture, family and your beliefs. Punished
the hold up posters and repeat the quotes that is a total
humiliation to your beliefs. Red Guards has went out of
control, and it needs to end soon before it gets too
chaotic that Mao can’t even sustain.

14th, 1971
Rush and Fail
He killed him. I was right about Mao, and he was a
crazy intelligent and powerful man. In 1967, after the Red Guards
had sabotaged thousands of people’s lives and ransacked over
millions of houses, I thought Mao couldn’t keep things under
control anymore. It shocked me how easily Mao could put an end
to the Red Guards, forcing the soldiers on them and sending them
to the fields to cool down and be disciplined by the hard working
peasants. Four years past in a blink as if there’s fast forward
button, and something more shocking came up on the news.
Everyone thought that Mao was the only successful leader in this
country. People thought that Mao was the man that influenced
the entire country during the Cultural Revolution, but death was
brought upon one of the most loyal and influential person during
the Cultural Revolution, Lin Biao.
During the years of the Cultural Revolution, Mao was
in total control over the country. Mostly every one were loyal
supporters to Mao but also feared him just as much. Many
government officials was jealous and hated Mao since he has
taken credit from many of them as they worked so hard to try to
improve the country but having no recognition throughout the
country. Lin Biao was the few out of all that obtained decent fame
in our country, I thought he was a very patriotic but also a very
influential man, but just like the others, and Lin was desperate for
more power. Since Lin was second in throne to becoming the
famous and appreciated leader of China, he planned a scheme in
order to become the ruler.
9. Lin got hold of the daily schedules of Mao and
picked the perfect time so he could plan a scheme that would
guarantee the death of Mao. He picked a date when Mao was
supposed to be on a train to attend some event, and instead,
Lin was there to sabotage the train and kill Mao.
Unexpectedly, the train never showed up in Lin’s trap. Lin
found out that Mao didn’t travel in his normal route, and
instead, he changed to another route while travelling. Lin and
his wife’s plan to sabotage Mao was abolished and there was
no longer any other attempts to kill Mao, because on
September 14th, 1971, Lin was found dead in a plane crash
due to an fuel shortage during Lin’s plane travel.
I was surprised but also found it sketchy when Lin
would make a simple mistake of not fully fueling the plane
before travelling. Since Lin was a very important and
influential person during the Revolution, it started to make
people question if the Cultural Revolution is the right choice.
For Mao and his wife, Jiang Qing, to save the situation of the
many doubts on the Cultural Revolution, they planned
something cruel. To humiliate Lin and also saving the
Revolution, Jiang Qing started a rumor and blamed all the
previous mistakes made in the Revolution on Lin. It
immediately broken Lin’s image but successfully saved the
doubts for Mao and Jiang Qing in ruling of the Cultural
Revolution.
10. September 12th, 1976
Fall of Cultural
Revolution
Tears shed, and yell and screams fill the country,
peasants and Red Guards chop their head off and blood was
spread across the country. On September 8th, 1976, the
Revolution was abolished as Chairman Mao Zhe Dong was
announced dead. Since then, only four days has passed and
the country was in total chaos. People committed suicide
because they didn’t believe the country would continue
without the greatest leader, Chairman Mao. I couldn’t believe
how devoted the Red Guards were to Chairman Mao,
watching them yell, scream and hitting their heads with
batons until they pass out. People lived up to Mao and since
his death was brought upon the world, they lose hope in
China because they don’t believe it will ever be as successful
as it was before. People lost hope in China, and they were all
sad since they thought the Cultural Revolution was a great
improvement, and it was abolished once Mao died.
On September 18th, 1976, everyone was gathered
at the Tian An Men Square, along with all the other people,
we stood for hours and hours for at the memorial service.
People were silenced and observed for exactly three minutes,
after, and the body would be moved into the “Mausoleum of
Mao ZeDong.” A large photo of Mao was then placed at the
top of the Tian An Men Square to pay its respect and show
the glory of Mao ZeDong. I know that Mao was sometimes a
very cruel person but to think back on everything Mao has did
in the past, not everything he achieved was a step back. I’m
starting to realize why all the people are extremely loyal to
Mao, and although his ways of executing problems are cruel,
but he was going on the right track.

Editor's Notes
Journal Entry 5: Tears shed, and yell and screams fill the country, peasants and Red Guards chop their head off and blood was spread across the country. On September 8th, 1976, the Revolution was abolished as Chairman Mao Zhe Dong was announced dead. Since then, only four days has passed and the country was in total chaos. People committed suicide because they didn’t believe the country would continue without the greatest leader, Chairman Mao. I couldn’t believe how devoted the Red Guards were to Chairman Mao, watching them yell, scream and hitting their heads with batons until they pass out. People lived up to Mao and since his death was brought upon the world, they lose hope in China because they don’t believe it will ever be as successful as it was before. People lost hope in China, and they were all sad since they thought the Cultural Revolution was a great improvement, and it was abolished once Mao died. On September 18th, 1976, everyone was gathered at the Tian An Men Square, along with all the other people, we stood for hours and hours for at the memorial service. People were silenced and observed for exactly three minutes, after, and the body would be moved into the “Mausoleum of Mao ZeDong.” A large photo of Mao was then placed at the top of the Tian An Men Square to pay its respect and show the glory of Mao ZeDong. I know that Mao was sometimes a very cruel person but to think back on everything Mao has did in the past, not everything he achieved was a step back. I’m starting to realize why all the people are extremely loyal to Mao, and although his ways of executing problems are cruel, but he was going on the right track. I was extremely in pain when I saw my daughter and son in law suffer from the famine caused by our Chairman Mao, but it was Mao’s way to execute the plan to try to form communism. Mao was trying his best to rapidly industrialize and collectivize China, and although it has backfired, it was going in the correct path. During Mao’s rule, he gained all the respect from the citizens while he tried to bring the rights of women equal to men. Equalizing the rights on both genders, it really improved the lives of the women and at first when men hate it, and they found their lives even better as Mao released women from a no rights jail. When Mao was ruling, it also doubled the population of China as it were before Mao started to take control. From 550 million to over 900 million was a huge increase, showing how Mao helped improve lives of most Chinese citizens. Mao was then regarded as one of the most important individuals in modern world history as his intelligence as war strategist and political strategist. After Mao’s death, I didn’t think it would be a huge disaster because our current leader is calmer and won’t rapidly try to improve China. After the death of Mao on September 8th, 1976, HuaGuofeng took control over China. While he was trying to calm down the rapid industrializing and try to change China in a better and safer way and he was named the “right”. The “Gang of Four” was trying to continue Mao’s way to rapid industrialize and collectivize China and then was named the “left”. These two sides were opposing each other, fighting to see who wins the war and take control over China.
