And the chaos begins

Here's a promising new blog: Mei-Zhong.com by Anton Lee Wishik.

The blogger recently translated an article from the reformist journal Yanhuang Chunqiu (炎黄春秋) by Liu Jin: A personal history of the beginning of the Red Guards.

The piece covers the first stirrings of Cultural Revolution in June 1966. At the time, Liu Jin was president of the work association of the middle school affiliated to Qinghua University.

The original Chinese article is here.
