Women, Life, Freedom

Mahsa Gina Amigny

On my social media, that photo appeared again and again. A young woman was lying in a hospital bed, unconscious, with a breathing tube in her mouth. Her thick black eyelashes and curly black hair outline her young face. The post is written in Persian, and my mastery of this language can only be regarded as a primary level. I brushed these posts and continued my daily routine: seeing a doctor, teaching, and constantly urging my 17-year-old daughter Laila to fill out her college application.

As the days passed, the story became well known. The photo shows Mahsa Gina Amigny, a 22-year-old girl who has just been admitted to the university. While vacationing with her family in Tehran, she was detained by the "moral police" because of her loose headscarf. In the detention center, she was beaten and taken to the hospital, and eventually died of her injuries. Her dream was to become a lawyer, but she was disillusioned by a wisp of floating hair.

The news of her death spread through a photo. It was a photo of her parents hugging and crying in the hospital, which was shared by a reporter on Twitter. This tweet caused widespread protests, led by girls and women. My news source has become an ocean of photos of young girls. They wear black eyeliner like my daughter Lila-in the video, they laugh, cook and dance. However, many of them, Billera is still young, so they disappeared and even were murdered.

Iran was not like this. The Islamic Revolution in Israel in 1979 overthrew an oppressive monarchy and promised freedom. But from the perspective of my third-grade student at that time, everything became more depressed as time went by. Schools have become single-sex and headscarves have become mandatory. It started as a scarf, and later it became "Manteo", a loose, knee-length raincoat-like coat. But the color can only be brown, black, gray or navy blue. Pants must be worn below. Schools check from time to time, and moral police in the street look for people who violate the rules. If you are caught, you will be whipped.

In 1984, we pretended to attend a medical conference and fled Iran. We each took only one suitcase. It was not until a few hours before we boarded the plane that I knew we were leaving and would never come back. In Massachusetts, I started my eighth grade life. My Iranian part was sealed up by me-until last autumn, which forced me to recall those times.

I remember soldiers knocking at the door and searching for counter-revolutionary materials. They sat on my parents’ bed and quickly played all our videos backwards. Mostly Pink Panther, but those men don’t find it interesting.

I remember cutting my hair short and pretending to be a boy so that I could ride a bike without being bound by a headscarf. One day, I inadvertently put on pink shorts and exposed my girl identity. When those Nissan patrol cars chased me, I understood the meaning of "fight or flight". I escaped.

I remember the consequences of intellectual dissent. My aunt was expelled from dental school because she was accused of reading opposition newspapers. My cousin was forced to "repent" on TV and then executed. Another cousin was imprisoned many times because of his faith. He had cigarette burns on his arm and his nails were pulled out. He finally escaped, but his wife was killed at the age of 21.

Those memories are like dreams, awakened by images on social media. Girls and women in the video, screaming "Zan, Zendegi, Azadi"-"Women, Life, Freedom", bravely walked towards bullets and batons. Every day, the number of deaths and arrests is increasing.

A 52-year-old surgeon protested against the arrested protesters and the use of ambulances to transport security forces at a rally in front of the headquarters of the Medical Association. The doctor’s name is Parisa, and it is said that he was later shot and killed by agents.

All this makes my heart ache, and so does the silence around me. I live every day like a machine, thinking about all the unfairness. Why are people like Laila free to apply for universities and express their opinions, while girls in Iran are subjected to unspeakable punishment for demanding basic human rights?

I can take care of patients. But in Iran, my colleagues are threatened by taking care of injured protesters. They were held in solitary confinement and even murdered. Dr. Ida Rostami, 36, bravely provided treatment for injured protesters. She told her mother that she was coming home, but she never came back. When the police asked her mother to identify the body, they said that Ida had died in a car accident. But her body tells a different story. Her eyes were removed, her face was smashed, and her hand used to treat patients was broken.

So is Dr. Parrisa Bachmani. The official report said that she died in a car accident. The story repeats itself again and again. Protesters disappeared and were later reported to have jumped off a building or died in a car accident. I feel lonely and out of touch with the community. That was my home for 25 years.

One Wednesday, I met an Iranian-American colleague in the clinic corridor. Where the patient was waiting, we were in tears. We started to hold Zoom meetings every week to support each other. Campus communities have also become active. Everyone is involved, from young female postdoctoral fellows who have just arrived in the United States to retired professors. Our reaction is direct and strong. Usually calm men and women cry.

We ask the non-Iranian community to support us. They did it. Every message, email, signature and solidarity has become our strength. The community stands up, speaks, and amplifies our voices. At such an easier time to be silent, they chose to stand on our side.

As the Persian poet Saadi wrote in Bani Adam a thousand years ago, human beings are like a body, and everyone is a part of the body, created by the same essence. When one part is injured, the other part can’t be safe. If you are indifferent to the suffering of others, you are not worthy of being human.

A quarter of doctors in the United States are international graduates. Our roots are all over the world, spanning generations. Our sense of belonging comes from embracing all forms of humanity. See the injured people and stand beside them. Send text messages of support and sign petitions. Whether for Iran, Ukraine, Afghanistan, Turkey or Sudan, these actions connect us like a part of the body.

Exercise can cure everything.


It’s been eight days since the Tokyo Olympic Games ended.

The national team won 38 gold medals, 32 silver medals and 18 bronze medals, which made us feel the strength of our motherland.

The athletes who returned to China for isolation have never been idle.

Trampoline champion Zhu Xueying took a yoga mat and a yoga ball with her, and even set up a mini trampoline beside the bed. I have to say, it was a champion.

Li Fabin, a weightlifting champion, practiced handstand with only two boxes of water, as if in a gym.

Wang Shun, who won the 200-meter medley, squatted and stood up without any equipment …

As long as people who really want to exercise, not to mention that there is no venue and no equipment, it is the most difficult isolation period, so it does not hinder.

Don’t blame netizens for commenting:"In the future, my unconditional excuses for exercising at home are gone."

We have long known that we are often beaten in the face. Many times we are tired, stressed, and have a headache and brain fever, which are just rhetoric and have nothing to do with the exercise itself.

The hardest thing about exercise is not the process of doing it, but the decision to do it.

When you really start exercising, you will find that it is too cured!

A while ago, there was a way to exercise while playing mobile phones on the Internet:

You can lie on your stomach and lie down, paralyzed in various positions, as long as you move your legs, it looks relaxed.

But the people who really tried it said this:

"I don’t want to move after two moves. I want to play with my mobile phone quietly."

"As soon as I lie in bed, I really don’t want to move."

"I have to raise my mobile phone, my arm is too tired …"

It doesn’t take long or much trouble to exercise in a down-to-earth manner. On the contrary, the more you think about being lazy and don’t want to move, the harder it will be to move in the future.

Sometimes, fatigue is not the amount of activity, but perhaps nothing.

Sometimes, it is not because you are tired that you lie down, but because you lie down.

Fatigue and burnout have long been a modern disease.

I have seen a post: "What kind of experience is it to exercise for an hour every day?"

Answer that the Lord goes to work normally every day, and he is indescribably tired, even when he returns home.

He is introverted. He can either go to the bookstore on weekends, play games, and occasionally get together for dinner, all of which can be done for half a day.

However, his physical foundation is already thin, and with high-intensity work, it is almost impossible to cope easily.

Until he made up his mind and set himself an exercise plan.

Practice bench press, back pull and leg flexion and extension.

There is an action called Dumbbell Flying Birds, which requires lying on a stool, stepping on the floor with two feet and reaching out with dumbbells in both hands. It is very standard to do it.

He persisted for 10 months, got rid of fat and got abdominal muscles, and the whole person changed.

The diet is more and more regular, and when I get home every day, my face is no longer tired.

After exercising, I found that those things that once tired him to death were nothing more than that. Besides work, I could do things I like, fall in love, and do a lot.

It used to be said that if you don’t die, you won’t die, and if you don’t shout tired, you won’t be tired. Later, I found out that those tired reactions are all your real physical state.

Enough physical strength, fatigue won’t last long.

Never stop until you like sports.

When you feel the thrill of exercise, you don’t want to stop, especially when you taste the sweetness.

After all, this is the best relaxation.

People who exercise for a long time can easily understand:My brain has become clear.

This is not a coincidence, but a necessity.

A study in the United States shows that,

Middle-aged people do 75 minutes of moderate and high-intensity exercise every week, which is very effective in promoting brain health and maintaining brain structure.

The risk of brain lesions and cerebral infarction in old age will also be greatly reduced.

The most direct benefit is to do things more smoothly.

The amount of information we receive every day is huge, which is difficult for our brains to digest.

When reading a book, I can’t concentrate. After watching a small video for 3 seconds, I unconsciously want to cross it away, let alone really meet something, which requires deep thinking.

The brain is like every part of the body. If you use it too hard at a time, it will strike.

It will become stronger with constant exercise.

Tao Hong, an actor, accidentally entered the show business at the age of 22. He just made a play and was admitted to the Central Academy of Drama with full marks. She is the first student to get full marks in Chinese opera.

Before she was 30 years old, she became the winner of the Golden Rooster Award and the China Watch Award.

When she retired, she was silent. Two years ago, a film "Little Joy" became a big fire again. Even Bo Huang praised her: "She is a very smart person."

She was on the synchronized swimming team when she was very young. Even after retiring as an actress, she often practiced water yoga. Pilates, morning running, never broken.

After exercise, everything is easy to do.

If you don’t think it’s enough, you can look at Academician Zhong Nanshan, now 85 years old, who is still fighting against the epidemic when Delta virus spreads.

He fought against SARS at the age of 67 and studied COVID-19 in recent two years. His mind never stopped.

In these years, he is either treating people or on his way to treat them.

He also exercises three times a week for decades to make his brain run at high speed.

Even when he is on a business trip, he will take a stretcher and do some simple exercise. There are dumbbells and treadmills at home, and everything is available.

There is no one with a simple mind, developed limbs and a truly developed mind, and the limbs will never be simple.

Envy others’ Excellence, envy others’ ease, but I don’t know that kung fu is behind me.

Living clearly and working clearly are all in sports, which has created a strong mind.

The exercise you are doing now has surprises waiting for you in the future.

When a person is tired physically, he can rest, his brain is tired, and he can relax, most afraid of being tired.

Your state of mind directly determines your state.

Psychology has long been studied, and people who exercise regularly are much less likely to suffer from depression.

For everyone who works hard, the mentality is something that can be adjusted.

Some netizens shared her experience when she was unemployed, and she could collapse at any little thing.

A colleague who squeezed her out everywhere before leaving her job was promoted to the leadership. She was treated as an idiot and made a particularly unpleasant noise before leaving.

She was depressed for a time, so she didn’t look for a job. She was too scared to sleep at night and had to turn on the light.

Occasionally drinking with friends, and staring at the ceiling all night when I come back, I repeatedly doubt myself.

At that time, there was a reality show in the workplace on TV. In the camera, the boy asked the leader, "Am I really bad?"

She sat on the sofa and immediately burst into tears.

It was really difficult to start exercising. She got up the courage to run downstairs, climbed the stairs back and forth with her fat, and soon she gasped and often felt depressed.

Slowly, she began to adapt, increased exercise and went to the gym to practice.

She finally came out of the emotional black hole, and she could meditate by herself, find something to do, and began to enjoy the loneliness of doing nothing every minute.

Even the diet became regular, and she began to cook rich meals for herself, rewarding herself and enjoying every good weather.

When she is alone, she is also in the mood to read books and watch movies, and often makes videos to record her life. She also bought a full set of review materials, and finally had time to read the business English certificate that she had always wanted to take.

When you are at the bottom, you have to fend for yourself.

Doing happy things and thinking from different angles is superficial and most direct, and it depends on exercise.

Dopamine produced by exercise can help you.

Sweating, or the same dilemma, but you unconsciously completed the adjustment.

You don’t have to force yourself to smile, but you have a smile unconsciously.

The fashion blogger @ 发发发发发 said that every day, someone asked her how to stick to sports punching, but in her opinion, only those who don’t like it need to stick to it.

Exercise is just like eating and sleeping, even more enjoyable.

With the good mood gained in sports, even the unhappiness of life can be swept away.

Before we go to the gym, there are always countless hesitations: "It’s raining, it’s too hot, it’s troublesome to work overtime today, have dinner at night and change into sportswear, and the equipment is not ready yet …"

But if you ask those who exercise regularly, they only have one sentence: "Put on your running shoes and set off."

Exercise should not be a kind of suffering.

When the sweat comes down, you will cure all the fatigue, and your body, mind and mood will gradually improve.

Exercise is an investment with the highest rate of return and will not regret it.

Because when you love sports, happiness will love you.

Take the first step and experience a real relaxation.

New Trends and Influences in Fashion: Sustainability, Street Culture and Digital Transformation

Fashion, as a dynamic theme, plays an extremely key role in contemporary society, and its influence has gone beyond the simple clothing and appearance, extending to many levels of culture, society and psychology. With the passage of time, we can clearly see that some exciting trends are shaping this field.

First of all, with the increasingly prominent environmental problems, people began to pay more attention to the impact of the clothing industry on the natural environment. Traditional fashion production and consumption patterns lead to resource waste and environmental damage. This situation has aroused people’s concern about sustainability, and many fashion brands and designers have begun to reflect on their production methods and materials used.

Sustainable fashion emphasizes the consideration of environmental, social and economic influences in the process of design, production and consumption. This trend is not only reflected in the choice of materials, but also includes the choice of energy use, transportation mode and packaging materials in the production process. More and more brands began to adopt environmentally friendly materials, advocating the concept of circular economy and zero waste production. The practice of sustainable fashion includes careful selection and use of materials, such as organic cotton, recycled fiber and degradable materials, to reduce the impact on the environment. In addition, energy consumption in the production process is also paid attention to, and some brands adopt clean energy and energy-saving technologies. Transportation is also a key link, and using more environmentally friendly transportation methods can reduce carbon emissions.

Consumers’ consciousness gradually turned to sustainability, and they began to choose to support environmental protection brands and buy more durable and high-quality clothing. This consumption change not only supports the development of sustainable fashion economically, but also promotes the spread of more environmentally friendly fashion concepts in society.

Secondly, street culture is a symbol of young people at first, but with the development of the times, it has crossed different ages and become an important part of fashion. This cultural integration has brought more diverse fashion styles and broken the boundaries of traditional aesthetics. Street elements such as sportswear, graffiti elements and loose tailoring are gradually emerging in fashion design. The introduction of these elements makes fashion more creative and energetic, and at the same time reflects a unique aesthetic.

The influence of street culture makes people pay more attention to individuality and self-expression. People no longer pursue a single fashion standard, but show their unique personality and attitude through clothing. This diverse attitude gives fashion greater freedom.

Street culture pays attention to freedom, innovation and non-traditional aesthetics, which affects people’s attitudes and views on fashion. Fashion is no longer an unattainable symbol, but a lifestyle that is closely related to everyone.

Third, in the digital age, the fashion industry has also ushered in tremendous changes. Social media has become a new platform for fashion information dissemination, and people can easily obtain the latest fashion trends, trends and brand information. Fashion bloggers and celebrities share their fashion collocations and opinions on social media, introducing fashion into people’s daily lives. They have become fashion opinion leaders, influencing people’s purchasing decisions and aesthetic concepts. This phenomenon enhances the visibility and influence of the fashion industry.

The digital age has brought convenience to online shopping, and consumers can choose their favorite clothes anytime and anywhere. This change enables consumers to meet their personal needs more flexibly, and also promotes the growth of the fashion industry.

Social media platforms create more opportunities for interaction between consumers and brands. Consumers can communicate directly with brands, provide feedback and suggestions, and brands can understand consumers’ needs more accurately, thus providing products closer to the market.

To sum up, as a dynamic field, fashion is not only the surface of clothing, but also the comprehensive embodiment of environmental protection, personality and culture. The sustainable revolution, the rise of street culture and digital transformation have jointly shaped the diversity and vitality of fashion field. These trends are not only reflected in fashion design, but also profoundly affect all aspects of individuals and society.

People convey their values, hobbies and personal styles through clothing, thus establishing their own unique personal image. The culture and values represented by fashion are also imperceptibly influencing people’s attitudes and behaviors. Some fashion brands influence people’s attitudes towards society and life by advocating values such as environmental protection, diversity, inclusiveness and innovation.

As designers, we should always pay attention to the evolution and trend of fashion field, realize the importance of sustainability, and integrate the concept of environmental protection into the design process. Choosing environmentally friendly materials, adopting recyclable production mode and paying attention to the life cycle of products are all our goals in design. At the same time, we should pay close attention to the development of street culture, draw creative inspiration from it, and skillfully integrate street elements into the design to meet diversified consumer needs. With the advent of the digital age, we should keep up with the pace of science and technology. Mastering digital tools and technologies can better promote their own design works, interact with consumers, and integrate into social media platforms to establish close ties with fashion opinion leaders and consumers. This will help to improve brand awareness and visibility. By paying attention to sustainability, drawing lessons from street culture, using digital tools and transmitting positive values, we can make positive contributions to the development of fashion and lead fashion to a better future.

Don’t randomly choose the basic models, look at the ideas of these fashion bloggers and wear fashion charm with classic models.

As the saying goes, women who can dress are more attractive. Look at those who are really temperament. In fact, their face value may not be so outstanding, but because they can dress and their clothes are online, they always leave a good impression on people. So, as ordinary people, how should we match them in our daily lives? You can take a look at the ideas of the following fashion hipsters. They also wear fashion charm with classic models, which looks particularly amazing and is worth learning.

1, tailoring design

There are many factors to pay attention to when dressing. The first thing is to look at the tailoring and design of a dress, compared with that fancy dress. Most people are more suitable to wear this basic model in their daily life, just like a simple shirt, which is low-key and durable, and it is also very temperament when worn on the body. The cutting design is simple and does not incorporate too many complicated designs, so it is very convenient to control.

2, materials and fabrics

Another thing to look at is the fabric. A person can dress and of course choose clothes. They will choose high-quality clothes for themselves, so that they will look more beautiful when they are matched. For example, many girls usually choose these satin and velvet clothes, which are relatively advanced and still have a lot of temperament when they wear them.

3, low-key and advanced color matching

Another point is the color matching of clothes, which is ignored by many people. In fact, there are many girls who usually ignore the color of clothes when they buy clothes. They always think that as long as the style they wear is personalized enough, but if the color doesn’t suit you, it’s no use matching it yourself. We have to choose advanced colors, such as white and khaki, which are more elegant.

Especially white, a classic color, is really a color that most people will choose first. White is very eye-catching and versatile. It can be combined with all kinds of colors you like, and it will feel beautiful when you wear it on your body. Like these combinations of white and khaki, they are very elegant, simple and fashionable, and can modify your skin color.

You don’t need to buy too much clothes in autumn. After all, quality is more important than quantity. You can choose this simple knitted cardigan, which is very gentle to wear on your body. A simple knitted cardigan with a T-shirt can reflect the layering, and this collocation method is also very gentle, and you can also match it directly in daily wear.

You can also choose to wear a suit, which is very fashionable and capable. Like the following goddesses, they are concave in black, gray and white suits. It really saves a lot of time by using the matching of suits, which looks very attractive. This matching of suits adjusts the proportion of individuals’ bodies and looks intellectual and generous.

Simple sweaters also have different interpretations. Sisters can try to choose these colorful sweaters for themselves when choosing, which will make them more energetic, such as fluorescent green or rose red sweaters, which are particularly beautiful and fashionable.

Shirts with wide-leg pants are already a classic look. Sisters who are not good at matching can also match them directly. These simple short shirts with high-waisted wide-leg pants look neat and free, and they are very energetic. At the same time, they can also adjust their bodies with the help of short tops and long bottoms.

These fashionable windbreaker coats look cool and sassy when worn on the body. A medium-long windbreaker is domineering on the body, and the waist-closing design helps us to modify our figure, which can also avoid wearing dullness, and the overall look is quite easy to increase. If you’re worried that it’s not fashionable enough, just combine these boots to match it, so it’s really exciting to wear.

The charm of basic models is greater than expected. The girls above choose various basic models for themselves, which are low-key and generous and full of charm. Combining with some personalized matching skills, you can reflect your charm and add good temperament.

Understanding the Four Realms of History

History is an evil teacher who only tells the truth to free people.

-Lord acton

For some countries or nations, history may be a fetter and a burden, but if you want to liberate from history, the safest and most reliable means is to recognize history.How a country’s citizens know about history determines what kind of future this country will have to a certain extent.Therefore, a correct understanding of history is extremely important for us at present.

Hegel said, "The only lesson that human beings have learned from history is that they have not learned any lessons from history". The reason for this is precisely because human beings have all kinds of wrong understandings of history. However, a historian, with his vigilance and insight, corrected the wrong cognitive model of history and helped us learn wisdom from history and enhance our realm. He is Lord acton.

From Lord acton’s works such as Freedom and Power and Lectures on Modern History, The Prophet Bookstore summarized the following four ideological paths of understanding history, each of which is a historical thinking that goes straight to the bottom:

1. History lies not in abundance, but in truth.

In human history, there are many false histories, the most typical of which is the "history" from the hands of autocratic monarchs. In order to maintain their own orthodoxy, they always delete historical materials and monopolize history. If we want to break away from the domination of power in the vast "history" where fakes are everywhere, we must have the knowledge and courage to find the truth.

Acton believes that the value of history lies not in its richness, but in its credibility. No matter how much false history is piled up, it is equivalent to garbage. It is better not to have it. Only in reliable historical facts can human beings learn real lessons.

2. Meaning is not in the present, but in eternity.

People usually think that the main significance of history is to provide lessons for the present. This is not wrong, but if it is only so, it will be a bit narrow. Because "the present" is always full of disputes and agitation, and the sacred and just beliefs should be detached from it and need to be formed in a quiet space.

Acton said, "Beyond credibility, it is a question of detachment". The key point of historical significance lies in "grasping the eternal problems, so that we are free from limiting the transient and changeable things". Reading history lies in thinking about the origin and root of things, thus gaining a transcendental wisdom.

3. Truth is important, but morality is more important.

In the face of history, if we only pay attention to the truth, it is often easy to draw wrong conclusions. For example, ancient aristocratic rule had many disadvantages, which is a fact, but it does not lead to the conclusion that civilian rule is better. As acton said, "The question is not which specific class is not suitable for ruling, but all classes are not suitable for ruling". Without the universal morality of mankind as a whole, any rule is dangerous.

Acton believes that "ideas are often repeated, rules of conduct are often changed, and creeds also rise and fall, but moral laws are engraved on the eternal monument". Therefore, history must have morality and faith running through it, and we must return to caring for people themselves. Without the restraint of moral principles, history can easily lead to blind hatred and become a call for slaughter.

4. Great history bears witness to the wisdom of God.

Acton believes that if we don’t take into account the history of 3,000 years, we can’t find philosophy in the historical observation of nearly a hundred years in modern times. But compared with ancient history, the cognition of modern history is more important. Because the transformation of mankind from barbarism to civilization in modern history helps us to see that "the wisdom of God’s rule is not reflected in the perfection of the world, but in the improvement of the world".

Modern history "tells our own story and is a record of our own life". Modern history "still hinders the pace of human beings and puzzles the human mind", and every part of modern history "contains extremely precious lessons". If we don’t know how to use the precedents and teachings, we will only repeat the same mistakes in the future and pay a huge price.

The above four points are only a small part of Lord acton’s historical insights. What he warned by moral laws is the weakness of the whole human race and the universal humanity. Acton’s unique transcendence and historical concern made him a prophet, but he was destined to be a minority in history.

Generally speaking, historical research values scientific methods, objective facts and impartial attitude; However, acton’s historical research is the last echo of western classical liberalism, and what he emphasized is precisely the points farthest from history in our eyes-freedom, morality and faith. This unique historical perspective is unfamiliar to Chinese people, but also lacking-perhaps this is the fundamental reason why China has not been able to get out of the cycle of chaos control for thousands of years.

People’s Network Review: Strengthening Cultural Self-confidence and Promoting the Rejuvenation of Chinese Civilization

Source: People’s Network-Viewpoint Channel

Visit Xuanyuan Temple of Huangdi Mausoleum, and pay tribute to the vigor and uprightness of cypress planted by Huangdi in 5000 years. At Lushan Mao site and Shiyan Mao site, feel the grand scenery of the capital city of "Wanbang came to Korea" 4000 years ago; In Baoji Bronze Museum, I realized the pre-Qin civilization of the Western Zhou Dynasty 3,000 years ago … With the launch of the online theme of "Why is China in a Prosperous Age", an interview group composed of Chinese and foreign journalists, experts and scholars set off from Xi ‘an, Shaanxi Province, and started a wonderful journey of exploring the source. The magnificent treasures and voluminous documents help us decipher the code of civilization and strengthen our cultural self-confidence.

Cultural self-confidence is a more basic, broader and deeper self-confidence and a more basic, deeper and more lasting force in the development of a country and a nation. The Chinese nation is an ancient and great nation in the world. It has created a splendid civilization that has lasted for more than 5,000 years and made indelible contributions to the progress of human civilization. Through cultural relics, heritages and texts, the online theme propaganda of "Why is China in a Prosperous Age in China" makes people more and more amazed at the profoundness and long history of Chinese civilization. Numerous cultural creations have strengthened our cultural confidence, from a subset of classics and history with rich knowledge, to the four books and five classics, six towers and three strategies that show profound wisdom, from jade carving and bronze wares and ceramic silk weaving that show superb skills, to piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs with elegant interests.

How to treat one’s excellent traditional culture is an important criterion to judge whether a country or a nation has cultural self-confidence. In the new era, the Chinese civilization tracing project has made important progress, the national cultural digitalization strategy has been rapidly promoted, and the national cultural park has been built in an orderly way … A major project has blossomed with more dazzling light of civilization, helping the people of China to glow with stronger historical consciousness and initiative.

Strengthening cultural self-confidence means sticking to your own path. The road of Socialism with Chinese characteristics came out under the guidance of Marxism, and it also came out from the history of Chinese civilization for more than 5,000 years. For example, the people’s congress system is deeply related to the people-oriented thought of Chinese civilization and the idea of ruling the world together. The system of regional ethnic autonomy inherits the tradition of China’s cultural unification, which is based on Kyushu, Liuhe and the four seas. If we continue to explore our own roads and methods on the land of China, we should base ourselves on the great historical practice and contemporary practice of the Chinese nation, seek the source of living water from traditional culture, provide enlightenment for understanding and transforming the world, provide inspiration for governing the country and opening up a new road without forgetting the way we came.

The revival of a nation is always supported by the prosperity of culture; The progress of an era is always marked by cultural prosperity. The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China drew a grand blueprint for building a socialist modernization power in an all-round way and promoting the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation in an all-round way with Chinese modernization. On the new journey, we should further strengthen our cultural self-confidence, work together to create a new culture belonging to our times, build a modern civilization of the Chinese nation, and provide a strong value guiding force, cultural cohesion and spiritual impetus for realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

Great China, magnificent mountains and rivers. Looking back at the depths of history, one of the important reasons why the Chinese nation has survived from countless difficulties and hardships is that Chinese culture has provided strong spiritual support to overcome difficulties. Looking into the future, there are calm, stormy waves, rushing rivers and flying clouds. Standing on the land of China infiltrated with excellent traditional culture, we have the majestic power of more than 1.4 billion China people, our historical background is extremely profound, and our determination to advance is extremely strong. Illuminate the way forward with the light of thought, and eliminate all difficulties and dangers with the power of spirit, and we will surely build a towering spiritual building and promote the rejuvenation of Chinese civilization.

What is "culture"

In an era, it not only updated our understanding of culture, but also refreshed our ideas again.

Just as knowledge is not equal to culture, it subverts our rational knowledge and perceptual habits all the time.

In fact, in our thinking logic, people often regard culture as the code of conduct of civilization.

For example, benevolence, courtesy, wisdom and trust, gentleness, courtesy and frugality are all concrete manifestations of behavior culture.

Therefore, when a person walks under a tree or an obstacle below his height, there is no doubt that he will bend down.

It should be said that few people even think about how to change it. This is a kind of culture.

Especially when the elevator door is opened, some people stand aside and wait for others to get off the elevator, and some people are eager to squeeze in.

These actions are the intersection of behavior and culture, and have nothing to do with education and knowledge. This is also a kind of culture.

[1] What is culture

Now that we have talked about "culture", how should we understand and recognize these two words? Of course, in other words: "What is" culture "?

Generally speaking, what we call "culture" in a broad sense refers to the sum of all material products and spiritual products created by human beings.

In a narrow sense, it refers to spiritual products including language, literature, art and all ideologies.

Here, we emphasize that as a kind of "culture", it must have six characteristics:

(1) universality. The universality of culture is manifested in the common cultural forms in social practice activities, even though different national consciousness and behavior are manifested, they have the same forms of expression.

(2) Diversity. Under different natural, historical and social conditions, different cultural types and cultural models have been formed, which makes the world culture present the characteristics of diversity as a whole.

(3) nationality. The traditional culture rooted in the nation is complementary to the development of the nation. So different nationalities have different national cultures.

(4) Inheritance. The inheritance of culture is the basis of carrying forward and developing culture. If there is no inheritance, of course, there will be no culture.

(5) Developmental. The essence of a national culture lies in its continuous development and change. A series of cultural products, including today’s automation and informatization, are the results of cultural development.

(6) the times. In the historical process of human development, each era has its own typical cultural type.

[2] Cultural background

I remember that Mr. Li Yanjie, the former professor of Beijing Normal University and vice president of the World Association for the Promotion of Chinese Education, once gave an open class entitled "Virtue, knowledge, talent, truth, goodness and beauty" at the lecture tour in Peking University.

He said; What is culture? The sum of truth, goodness and beauty is culture.

It can be seen that what we call "culture" is the product of all-round, multi-level and three-dimensional intersection of fields.

It not only covers a person’s cultivation, temper and disposition, but also includes family environment, living space, and even genetics and so on.

My neighbor, Aunt Song, once said, "Without culture, you are illiterate.". This statement is very incisive and hits the nail on the head.

You can imagine, living in the present, if you don’t even know a big word, this is not a scene, and it has nothing to do with the bridge, but it is incredible.

[3] It’s terrible to have no culture

Once upon a time, there was a saying circulating in the society: "It’s terrible to be uneducated", although it was just a network language. But it is a culture in itself.

Do you know that the cultural content contained in this sentence is far and near, false and real, true and false?

Perhaps, it may be trying to explain a thing or an action. But I hope it’s just a humorous remark with no practical significance.

Inject youthful strength into cultural inheritance and development (solid foundation and new discussion on culture)

"Do you want to innovate in the lyrics and plot? Make the audience feel more interesting. " "A play is long, no play is short. Traditional operas have to adapt to the theater, and the plot is compact and simple. " This is a daily discussion among young actors in Zhejiang Wuju Art Research Institute. In this troupe, which accounts for nearly 90% of the post-80s, post-90s, and post-00s, the actors practice hard the Four Merits and Five Methods and improve the literary and martial arts, and are active in more than 500 performances every year, so that the audience can feel the "fashion" of the opera.

The new appearance of Wu Opera is the epitome of contemporary China youth’s active participation in cultural inheritance and development. It has become the cultural consciousness of contemporary China youth to explore the cultural roots and take the initiative to inherit and innovate, from the young archaeologists at Sanxingdui archaeological site, to the young restorers who "rejuvenate" ancient villages, and then to the young creative talents in the national wind and tide.

Young people can use new technologies and new means to skillfully combine Chinese excellent traditional culture with contemporary life and open up innovative space. Taking intangible cultural heritage as an example, in the front line of rural revitalization, young people use innovative ideas to stimulate intangible cultural heritage, which not only inherits intangible cultural heritage, but also promotes rural development. Yang Changqin, the representative of the 14th National People’s Congress and the inheritor of the post-90s generation of Chishui bamboo weaving, a provincial-level non-legacy in Guizhou Province, studied skills and innovatively introduced a series of handicrafts such as bamboo weaving porcelain, which directly led to the increase of income of 177 households and 570 people in the ethnic village of Datong Town, Chishui City, and the bamboo weaving industry led to the employment of nearly 30,000 people in surrounding towns and villages. On the Tik Tok platform, in 2022, nearly seven creators in the field of non-legacy became young people, with over 1,000 live broadcasts every day; Young talents from professional troupes such as Huangmei Opera and Huagu Opera have stepped onto the "Cloud Stage", covering more than 300 kinds of operas. Last year, the number of people watching live broadcasts exceeded 2.5 billion, with an average of 3,200. Thanks to the innovative enthusiasm and creativity of youth groups, Chinese culture, including intangible cultural heritage, continues to glow with the glory of the times.

Inheritance needs innovation, and innovation calls for youth. Generate’s creativity in the cultural inheritance and innovation of the youth group proves the enterprising spirit of the Chinese nation, respecting the past and not retro, and reflects the outstanding innovation of Chinese civilization. Growing up in contemporary China, the stage for young people to display their skills is extremely broad. It is expected that the vast number of young people will inject more youthful strength into the cultural inheritance and development with high spirits.
