Inscription for the Central Ethnic Minority Delegation [I]
(July 1950)
All nationalities of the People's Republic of China, unite!
Mao Zedong

[I]
In order to conduct on-the-ground investigations into the living conditions and other circumstances of ethnic minorities, eliminate estrangement between nationalities, and strengthen unity among them, the Central People's Government dispatched the Central Ethnic Minority Delegation to the southwestern minority regions from July 1950 to March 1951. Before the delegation's departure, Mao Zedong wrote this inscription for them.
