🕊️ 91-Year-Old Witness Shares Powerful Message on China's Memorial Day
Liu Minsheng, one of the last surviving witnesses of the 1937 Nanjing Massacre, moved crowds this week as China marked its National Memorial Day. The 91-year-old's voice trembled with resolve as he declared: 'We remember not to prolong hatred, but to protect peace for all humanity.'
🔍 Liu emphasized this year's memorial carries renewed significance, urging youth to engage with history through VR exhibitions and AI-powered testimonial archives. 'Each name, each story is a beacon against forgetting,' he told reporters.
📚 Education as Armor
With only 42 registered survivors remaining, Liu stressed memorials now focus on interactive education. Schools across the Chinese mainland held 'peace studies' workshops this week, blending historical footage with conflict-resolution simulations.
🌐 Global responses poured in via social media, with #ProtectPeace trending across 15 countries. As night fell, 12,000 LED candles illuminated Nanjing's Memorial Hall – one for each documented victim.
