The counter-revolutionary and restorationist crimes of Catholicism before Liberation
mid 1960s
Publisher unknown
54x38 cm.
BG D25/90

A two-part series detailing the counterrevolutionary activities and "crimes" perpetrated by the Roman Catholic Mission in China before and after 1949. Both series are incomplete: the first part lacks the opening sheets; the second part lacks at least one sheet, and possibly more at the end.
Due to this, it is impossible to indicate when the series were published, where, by whom, and for what specific purpose. The last evil deed discussed, at the end of part two, dates from July 1965, during the "Four Clean Ups" movement (四清运动). This suggests that the two series were published some time in the mid-1960s.
The names of the foreign missionaries have been identified as far as possible.

The slogan left reads "Carry out slave education to train slaves to serve imperialism” (进行奴化教育培养为帝国主义服务的奴才).

Text top right, "The purpose of the Catholic Church and imperialist missionaries in running schools is to poison the Chinese people and train slaves to serve them. Please look at the confessions of the imperialists: In 1925, the Catholic Jesuit magazine 'China News' confessed that the purpose of their establishment of Aurora University was to 'train a group of young people who are proficient in French and have some knowledge of Chinese and can serve as our agents and translators in diplomacy and commerce.' The French imperialist publication 'On the French Medical School in Shanghai' confessed that the establishment of a medical school was 'actually an effective means to develop France's influence in China.‘" (天主教会和帝国主义传教士办学校的目的,是毒害中国人民,培养为他们服务的奴才。请看帝国主义分子的自供吧:一九二五年,天主教耶稣会杂志”中国通讯“,曾供认他们创办震旦大學的目的是”培养一批精通法语而略具中国学识可供我们作为外交与商业方面的代理人和翻译的青年“。法帝国主义报刊”论上海的法国医学院“一文中供识:开设医学院”实为发展法国的华势力的一种有效手段“).

Bottom, "This is some of the evidence of the slave education in the schools run by the Catholic Church. Look! Chinese students studying in these schools even learn Chinese history and geography in foreign languages. These two photos are the Chinese history and geography textbooks written in foreign languages ​​used by the Xuhui Middle School in Shanghai in the past." (这是天主教会办的学校进行奴化教育的罪证之一。大家看!在这些学校读书的中国学生,连学习中国历史,中国地理也用洋文。这两张照片,是过去上海徐汇中学所用的用洋文写的中国历史,中国地理课本).
