In August, 1966, Mao Zedong called for the start of a Cultural Revolution at the meeting of the Communist Central Committee. He urged the youth of China to become its “Red Guards” and to punish party officials and any other persons who showed capitalist tendencies.

On both sides of the blackboard were chalked her name and the many crimes she was alleged to have committed...
