On this day, 4 September 1895, Xiang Jingyu, communist and one of the pioneers of the Chinese women’s movement, was born. She was an advocate for women’s rights, as part of the liberation of the working class, and criticised sexist practices in the Communist Party. She led a strike of thousands of women silk factory workers in 1924. She was involved in organising women’s support for the Canton-Hong Kong workers’ strike the following year. Later she was betrayed and arrested in 1928 by French police. The French handed her over to the nationalist Kuomintang movement, who then executed her, but before her death she refused to give up any names of her comrades. https://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.296224173896073/1519347818250363/?type=3
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
