•, • Mao: …This is a day when the broad masses of women have united to demonstrate against their oppressors… In China’s War of Resistance Against Japan, final victory would have been impossible without the active participation of women. Only by mobilizing and organizing all 115 million women together with all 115 million men could we defeat Japanese imperialism… We should mobilize the vast female population throughout the country; in this regard, the base areas have set an exemplary example… We must learn from Krupskaya, and we must also learn from Comrade Xiang Jingyu, the model female Communist leader who sacrificed her life during the Great Revolution. She devoted her entire life to the liberation of women, the liberation of the working people, and the communist cause. We need to train thousands upon thousands of female heroes, as well as hundreds and thousands of professional organizers and “doctors” of the women’s movement!
