Son of the Revolution

Liana was born into a family where his father was a devote commie reporter and his sire who was accused of being part of a non-communist rightist group called the Hundred Flowers. The Hundred Flowers treasured to purify the communism that currently existed in China by finding faults in the existing communist regime. Lings mother did not criticize at first because her she had her job because of the Communist party and loved the party as a result. Mao Sedona, chairman of China, wanted to win the support of intellectuals so her leaders insisted he come up with three come forward of duty, she came up with three which drastically changed her life.From then, the Hundred Flowers Movement changed to the Anti- right-winger Movement in an effort to extract people who did not believe in the communist delegacy. Because their actions were against communism and a revolution was trying to be avoided, they send anyone associated with the Hundred Flowers to a re-education camp to bring them back in favor of the communist party. Politics played such a large part in the Chinese society that people were tricked into criticizing the party and punished. Lings mother was separated from Liana and his family and sent to another part of China for her different political beliefs.Not only was Liana separated from his mother for her non-communist ways, he was bullied and shunned in school because everyone thought he was non-communist like his mother.
