The Disaster that Ended

李愛哭) Jiang Ji-
Li the crybaby

Ji- Li is always crying and getting upset when she does not have her way. When she does not get the things she wants she just automatically gives up and never just tries to try again. Also, when she is made fun of she does not ignore it she always takes it and has to deal with it. JI- Li lets everything get to her head and makes everything more complicated rather than just ignoring it and moving on. In addition, every time her friends do not side with her, she starts to complain and gets very upset. She does not only do that with her friends she also does it with her teachers when she gets a bad grade. Ji-Li also gives very hard times with everybody and makes them wait for her and if they don’t she tells on them and sits their complaining for a long time until they admit what they have done and apologize. She also, complains when her parents say something and she does the opposite and when her parents tell her what she did wrong she complains that it wasn’t her fault. Even when her food is not cooked her way she’ll start weeping and crying.
Stop believing in bourgeois ideas to become one of Chairman Mao’s
The Cultural Revolution
I am brave and strong I wonder if this cultural revolution will ever come to an end. I hear the peace and quiet being disrupted by the gongs. I see a place where everyone can be unique and different. I want the revolution to end I am brave and Strong. I pretend to teach my students real history and what happened before this mess. I feel brave but cannot show it. I touch kids hearts by teaching them knowledge. I worry this will be around forever with my daughter. I cry myself to sleep to make this madness stop. I am brave and strong I understand I can’t change the government ways. I say that we unite and destroy this madness. I dream that my child will be able to escape this disaster. I try to make an end to this. I hope that one day this will stop. I am brave and strong
I am Teacher WEi and proud
Why should a successful landlord become a worthless shell of a person?
Why should the successful not be?
On the month of december 1966 I had to tell my daughter to not follow her dreams of becoming a liberation army dancer. I was devastated to tell her she could not do the audition, but I could not risk the political background check that came with it. I did not want to risk the fact that my wifes father was a landlord the worst out of the five black categories. Also, I did not want the fact that she would be made fun of for being a black whelp.... The month of October 1967 I had to burn my childhood memories of just so that in case the Red Guards came and ransacked my house was not accused of having four olds. I also had to burn the because it would have also shown my individual wealth which is considered to be four olds. So basically exploiting the fact that a person is not equal to something is considered four olds. In the end my childhood memories had become the mop I used to clean my house. Finally the month of August 1968 the worst I have ever imagined had happened. I had been detained and accused of listening to foreign radio and being reactionary. Since I had not done the accusation i had not confessed but that unfortunately had not helped. For that the dictatorship group made it worse. Since I did not confess they went after my family and now everything stopped and I was happy everything was back together.
