what I learned about the cultural revolution

  • Mao Zedong was the leader of a revolutionary party called the communist.
  • The communist believed that everyone should have a proletariat status.
  • Anything that was counter revolutionary was wrong
  • being overly intelligent was not allowed.
  • counter revolutionary things were-dental care, reading, dis obeying your teacher or higher officials, being smarter than the average person, going against the government.
  • the gang four were the four main contributors to the cultural revolution.
  • communism is about getting rid of bourgeois because communism wanted to get rid of the upper middle class and make everyone peasants.
  • The end of the cultural revolution was when the Big four was arrested after Mao Zedong died.
  • Mao Zedong was the man behind the whole revolution while the gang four was his second hand men.
