ridicule and false accusations based off their ancestry and their social class status. Jiang Ji-li tells of her own experiences during the Cultural Revolution in her memoir, Red Scarf Girl. She was only twelve or thirteen years old when the revolution first started, and over the course a few years, everything went drastically downhill as the country reformed itself. The changes and revisions that Ji-li is experiencing are meant to be positive, but the effects that they have on her family and her life—in

Exemplary Persons: A Comparison of a Bodhisattva and Junzi In reviewing the Asian religions, I found Buddhism and Confucianism to be interesting subjects. Specifically, I found their notions of what makes a superior or accomplished person to be engaging. The equivalent of an accomplished religious figure in Buddhism is a bhodisattva, or one who is dedicates his life to attaining complete enlightenment for all living beings. A superior person in Confucianism is one is “worthy of high station by virtue

His arm is draped around Li Na’s shoulder and she glances at him with eyes of joy and admiration. She is smiling and a delicately placed, pure white flower lies in her hair. It seems so strange to think that the arm of such an evil spirit is so close to her. On Mao’s other side stands Li Min. She stares straight at the camera and has a smile on her face. The family looks so unusually normal. Mao’s lack of

epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) phase of embryonic development. Reprogramming embodies the transient expression of OSKM transcription factors linked to pluripotency in somatic cells. These factors include c-Myc or Myc, KLF4, SOX2, and Octa4 (Li et al. 2017, p.6). They are critical to clinical translation of cell reprogramming in vivo. Their colonies resemble ESCs phenotypically, molecularly, and morphologically when compacted and placed on a culture dish. Initially, Chen et al. (2013, p.1316)

reading previous articles, I was able to understand America’s role in climate change and how our society can help to stop it, but when it comes to other countries, it’s difficult to understand what they do to harm or to help the environment. Anthony H. F. Li wrote an article called Hopes of Limiting Global Warming? China and the Paris Agreement on Climate Change. This article was able to highlight agreements that countries, including China, France, Germany, and America, have made with each other to limit

society. Comparably, in Mao’s Last Dancer, the director demonstrates the use of symbolism regarding the Chinese Cultural Revolution. Chairman Mao, a political leader during the revolution, is depicted on posters as well as badges.
