On the afternoon of October 10th, the State Council Press Office held a press conference. Liu Yongfu, director of the State Council Poverty Alleviation Office, introduced the progress and achievements in tackling poverty since the 18th CPC National Congress and answered questions from reporters. The data shows that in the past five years, China has made remarkable achievements in tackling poverty and made a historic breakthrough.

　　The number of poverty-stricken counties decreased for the first time

　　By 2020, it is a well-known goal of Chinese people to lift all the poor people out of poverty and all the poor counties out of their hats, and to eliminate regional poverty as a whole.

　　The whole of China is pushing forward the work of tackling poverty with unprecedented strength. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader personally took the lead and went out in person, and traveled to all concentrated contiguous destitute areas. More than 50 domestic inspections involved more than 30 poverty alleviation, and five inter-provincial symposiums were held in Fuping, Hebei, Yan’ an, Shaanxi, Guiyang, Ningxia, Yinchuan and Taiyuan, Shanxi, repeatedly emphasizing poverty alleviation and making a series of important instructions.

　　Data show that during the four years from 2012 to 2016, China has reduced the poverty population by 55.64 million, with an average of 13.91 million, and this year it will reduce poverty by at least 10 million. On the average of five years, the number of people who reduce poverty each year is more than 13 million.

　　Liu Yongfu said that this is an unprecedented achievement. Since large-scale poverty alleviation was launched in 1986, by 2000, the poverty-stricken population has been reduced by an average of 6.39 million per year; From 2001 to 2010, poverty was reduced by 6.73 million per year; Since the 18th National Congress, poverty has been reduced by more than 13 million people every year.

　　Not only that, in 2017, Jinggangshan in Jiangxi and Lankao in Henan took the lead in getting rid of poverty, and then a number of poverty-stricken counties will be declared out of poverty. This is the first time in history that the number of poverty-stricken counties has been reduced since they were first identified in 1986.

　　Focus on deep poverty-stricken areas

　　In deep poverty areas, the incidence of poverty is relatively high, and the basic conditions are relatively poor. The number of poor people in six provinces is over 3 million, and the incidence of poverty in five provinces is over 10%.

　　In this regard, Liu Yongfu said, the central government specially held a symposium on tackling poverty in deep poverty areas and issued supporting documents. First of all, the central government should focus on these deep poverty-stricken areas and increase capital policy and work input; Secondly, all departments of the central government should focus on the task of tackling poverty in deep areas and increase support; Third, the province has the overall responsibility to solve the problem of deep poverty within its jurisdiction.

　　In addition, there are many novel practices. For example, the government of Xizang Autonomous Region is going to move all the people who live above 4,200 meters above sea level to lower altitudes. In some deep poverty-stricken villages where the incidence of poverty is above 20%, it is necessary to implement the poverty-stricken village upgrading project, which includes infrastructure, industrial development, grass-roots organization construction, and guiding the people to change their ideas and concepts, and change stereotypes and bad habits.

　　All localities and departments played "combination boxing"

　　To solve a series of problems in poverty alleviation, it is necessary for all localities and departments to work together and play a "combination boxing".

　　In Liu Yongfu’s view, "there are too many measures" to solve the long-standing problems in the past. "In the past, after every large-scale operation, a group of poor people were left, ranging from more than 20 million to more than 30 million. These are absolute poverty. This time, we will eliminate absolute poverty completely, leaving nothing behind ‘ Pot bottom ’ 。”

　　Unprecedented and unconventional are the characteristics of these measures. In terms of organizational leadership, the management system of central planning, overall responsibility of provinces and implementation by cities and counties is implemented; In terms of financial input, the central government requires that the input should be compatible with the task of tackling poverty; In terms of financial input, there used to be only financial input, and financial participation was very small. Now finance is also involved.

　　How to establish a long-term mechanism to avoid returning to poverty is also very important. Liu Yongfu believes that it is necessary to solve the problem of building rural grass-roots organizations, and also to make good use of the first secretary and the resident team sent abroad; The most fundamental thing is to develop; In addition, a long-term mechanism should be established in education and health.

　　BEIJING, Feb. 8 (Xinhua) According to the website of the Food and Drug Administration, the website of the Food and Drug Administration today announced the Measures for the Administration of Medical Device Recall. The "Measures" stipulate that medical device manufacturers refuse to recall medical devices, and if the circumstances are serious, they will be ordered to stop production and business.

　　On June 1, 2014, the newly revised Regulations on the Supervision and Administration of Medical Devices was promulgated and implemented, which put forward new requirements for the recall of medical devices. China food and drug administration revised the original Administrative Measures for Medical Device Recall (Trial) to form the Administrative Measures for Medical Device Recall, which came into effect on May 1, 2017.

　　The defective medical device products mentioned in the Measures include:

　　(1) Products with unreasonable risks that may endanger human health and life safety under normal use;

　　(two) products that do not meet the mandatory standards and the technical requirements of registered or filed products;

　　(three) products that do not meet the relevant provisions of the quality management of medical device production and operation, which may lead to unreasonable risks;

　　(4) Other products that need to be recalled.

　　The "Measures" stipulate that medical device recalls can be divided into active recalls and ordered recalls according to the different starting conditions of medical device recalls.

　　According to the severity of medical device defects, medical device recalls are divided into:

　　(1) First-class recall: the use of the medical device may or has caused serious health hazards;

　　(2) Secondary recall: the use of the medical device may or has caused temporary or reversible health hazards;

　　(3) Three-level recall: it is less likely that the medical device will cause harm, but it still needs to be recalled.

　　The Measures stipulate that if a medical device manufacturer refuses to recall medical devices in violation of Article 24 of the Measures, the food and drug supervision and administration department of the people’s government at or above the county level shall order it to make corrections and confiscate the medical devices illegally produced, operated or used in accordance with Article 66 of the Regulations on the Supervision and Administration of Medical Devices; If the value of medical devices illegally produced, operated or used is less than 10,000 yuan, a fine ranging from 20,000 yuan to 50,000 yuan shall be imposed; If the value of the goods is more than 10,000 yuan, a fine of more than 5 times and less than 10 times the value of the goods shall be imposed; If the circumstances are serious, it shall be ordered to stop production and business until the original issuing department revokes the registration certificate, production license and business license of medical devices.

　　At the same time, the "Measures" stipulate that medical device operating enterprises and users who refuse to cooperate with the investigation of medical device defects and refuse to assist medical device manufacturers in recalling medical devices shall be given a warning and ordered to make corrections within a time limit; Those who refuse to make corrections within the time limit shall be fined up to 30,000 yuan.

　　China’s online literature, dubbed "barbaric growth", has become a unique landscape in the history of human literature development. The latest data shows that among the 731 million netizens in China, there are 333 million users of online literature, accounting for 45.6% of the total number of netizens, and there are 304 million netizens who read literature online on their mobile phones. The total number of words updated by hundreds of literary websites can reach 200 million Chinese characters, and the average daily page views of literary websites exceed 1.5 billion times. In 2016, the output value of online literature market in China exceeded 500 billion yuan. There is only one reading group, and 4 million authors upload original works for it every day, and the stock of online novels reaches 10 million. Books transformed and published from online novels, movies, games, animations, audio books and peripheral products have ignited the mass entertainment market and created a huge industry of "internet plus". It can be said that such a prosperous literary situation is unprecedented in China and unique in the world.

　　According to the survey of network literature in Europe, America, Japan, South Korea and South Asia conducted by the research team of Central South University, neither the Chinese network literature in these countries nor their native language network creation has been as prosperous as China. China, as a country with a long history of cultural resources, has seized the opportunity of digital media, and has truly become a strong country in online literature. Whether it is the author lineup, readers’ groups, works stock or overall literary vitality, China’s online literature has risen like Lin Xiufeng on the horizon of world literature, and it is an indisputable fact that the vast online literature is ahead of the world. Its cultural appearance and influence can be compared with Hollywood blockbusters, Japanese anime and Korean dramas. Based on the cross-border advantages of the Internet, a large number of China online novels have gone abroad and been sought after by foreigners, in the United States, Canada, the Philippines, Britain, Russia, Indonesia, Vietnam … … There are many fans of online novels in China. The English translation website Wuxiaworld alone has been followed by readers from more than 100 countries and regions around the world, with more than 500 million hits and more than 500,000 daily visitors. Not only history, romance, but also fantasy, science fiction, games and apocalyptic works are all favorite dishes of many European and American readers. In Novel Updates, a navigation website that provides Asian translation serials, novels are from qidian.

　　Such a "huge amount" of literature exists, and it has begun to become a strong force of China culture "going out". Why can our online literature lead the world?

　　The government escorts network literature.

　　The good trend of online literature in China is due to the active guidance and support of the government, which has gradually formed a social environment and public opinion atmosphere conducive to the healthy development of online literature. In recent years, the relevant government departments have issued a series of policy measures on the development of online literature, which has made the online literature with the rise of grassroots and "barefoot running" an important position for the national strategy of cultural development and the construction of core values. On the one hand, it gives more support and rewards to online literature with policy orientation. For example, Opinions on Prospering and Developing Socialist Literature and Art in the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China advocates "vigorously developing online literature and art", adopts the policy of "paying equal attention to construction and development, management and guidance", implements the creation and dissemination plan of online literature and art, and encourages the introduction of excellent online original works to promote the prosperous and orderly development of online literature. Since 2015, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television and the Chinese Writers’ Association have launched the "Promotion Activities of Excellent Original Works of Online Literature" and the "Ranking of Online Novels in China" respectively, trying to set a benchmark for online literature and promote it to be mainstream and classic; On the other hand, we will carry out special actions such as "Net Net" and "Sword Net" to crack down on online infringement and piracy, strengthen the copyright management of online literature content and works, standardize the market order of online literature, optimize the network environment, and let positive energy lead online creation.Network literature has become an important wing of China’s cultural soft power construction with its extensive literary penetration, entertainment attraction and cultural influence.

　　Market injects innovation power into network literature.

　　Another factor contributing to the prosperity of China’s online literature is the market operation. If Shan Ye’s grass-roots free writing, the communication mechanism of the technology jungle and the economic lever of the business model are the three sharp tools for the explosive growth of online literature, then the market-oriented operation of the business model is the biggest pusher to stimulate creation, promote communication and innovate management, and it is also the economic support for the massive growth of online literature in China, which is exactly what other countries in the world have failed to do. From the unsustainable acquisition of the largest original literature website "Banshuxia" more than ten years ago, to the cliff-like decline of Shanda Literature from monopoly to disintegration, to the fact that Reading Group has become the new overlord in the field of online literature, and even the successful listing of Chinese online, the fundamental reason behind it lies in the success of business model construction and market operation. The rise of network literature in China is not only the cultural creation of digital media, but also the inevitable result of the birth of network cultural capital market. Its incentive mechanism lies in that online writing can not only express freely and spread instantly, but also make a profit to become rich and well-off, and even enter the "rich list of writers" to gain both fame and fortune, thus becoming an important incentive to inspire many people to "touch the net" to write. Li Hu was recently named the "King of Internet", and writers such as Chen Dong, Maoni, Dreaming of God, Tang Jiasan Shao and I Eat Tomatoes ascended the throne of "Twelve Gods".There are also a number of writers who have won the titles of "Platinum Writers", "Great God Writers" and "Top 100 Great Gods". Besides the value of their works, their evaluation criteria are mostly inseparable from the market reactions recognized by readers, such as click-through rate, collection, rewards, IP transfer rate, publication circulation and number of fans.

　　Since the middle and late last century, Chinese online literature in China has gone through a tortuous development path, from the initial "utilitarian" creation to the market-oriented exploration at the beginning of the new century (for example, Qidian.com tried to pay for reading in 2003), and then in recent years, the IP bidding copyright model has gradually formed a "long tail effect" extending from upstream original works to downstream industrial chains such as film and television, games, animation, books, performing arts, audio and peripheral industries. Although there are still cases of online piracy, mercenary and neglecting social benefits, the commercial operation of online literature activates, drives, prospers and restricts the mass entertainment cultural market, which is a major reason why China’s online literature can lead the world.

　　Culture provides rich nourishment for online literature.

　　Network literature is a kind of original literature and popular literature. Its influence and communication power actually show the cultural creativity of the Chinese nation, and its health and prosperity reflect our cultural self-confidence. Imagine that a kind of literature can be created by tens of millions of people, with millions of contracted writers and a readership of more than 300 million people, and spread far and wide around the world through the special path of cross-border network and folk power. This phenomenal "cluster" literary phenomenon of the times is surely a generate with the release of national literary innovation and cultural creativity.

　　Tang Jiasan Shao, who started to create online in 2004, has written more than 40 million words of novels and published more than 160 books, which have been continuously updated for 130 months. Recently, he said with emotion: "No country will produce millions of new writers in just a few decades. How many writers can there be in the world?" He also quoted Professor Chen Xiaoming from Peking University as saying: "Even if there is only one-tenth of the fine works of online literature, it is a very large and considerable number, which is incomparable to other countries." There are many writers, high output, perseverance, and youthful passion to let go of dreams. It is difficult for online literature to think about it. Of course, there are more important historical and social reasons for the high standard of online literature in the world. China’s long literary tradition and cultural heritage provide rich soil for today’s online literature creation. It goes without saying that the strong rise of China’s economy, the continuous enhancement of comprehensive national strength and the open and stable social environment are the biggest background of the rapid rise of online literature in China.

　　The experience of the development of online literature shows that strong cultural soft power is the ultimate goal pursued by a country. The innovative vitality and cultural creativity highlighted by online literature is a great symbol of the increasing cultural soft power of the Chinese nation.

　　Recently, a news that "the man exploded in the car when he lit a cigarette" was posted on the internet hot search, which triggered a heated discussion among millions of netizens. On May 22, Suqian, Jiangsu, a man lit a cigarette in the car. Who knows that at the moment of ignition, the car suddenly exploded, causing the car glass to break and the roof to burst. From the appearance of the vehicle, the skylight on the roof was directly opened and the windshield "disappeared out of thin air". Fortunately, the man’s life was not in danger, but the power of the explosion also caused a lot of harm to the man. At present, the specific cause of the accident is under further investigation. According to eyewitnesses, the man’s hair was burned out, and there were explosives such as perfume and lighters in the car.

　　In summer in Guangdong, it seems that even the air is filled with a mass of fire. When the vehicle is parked in a hot summer day, the temperature inside the vehicle can easily reach above 60℃. At the moment of opening the door, the hot air blows on my face, as if in a steam room, and I can’t sit down at all. In this case, some common daily necessities and car accessories are potentially dangerous.

　　Related case

　　May 22, 2022, Shantou City, Guangdong Province. On the Hexi Bridge of Shanzhan Expressway, a light truck parked in the emergency lane caught fire, and smoke billowed from the scene. After preliminary understanding, the cause of the light truck fire was spontaneous combustion. A gas tank and some sundries were loaded on the truck, which were all burned in the spontaneous combustion accident. Fortunately, there were no casualties.

　　June 20, 2021, Shaoguan City, Guangdong Province. A car owner parked his car in the sun. Due to the high temperature in the afternoon, the car suddenly popped twice and began to spontaneously ignite. According to the situation at the scene, the rescuers quickly pointed a water gun at the fire site to spray water. After five minutes, the fire was extinguished. Fortunately, there was no one in the car at that time.

　　On June 11, 2021, Mr. Wang and his younger brother were driving on the Ningxiang section of Hunan Changyi Expressway when the vehicle suddenly spontaneously ignited. According to the investigation, the cause of spontaneous combustion was caused by the exposure of the lighter placed in front of the windshield of the vehicle.

　　Guangzhou Fire Department reminds drivers not to open the hood if they find smoke or fire at the engine of the car! Once the hood is opened, not only the hood is easy to burn the palm of your hand, but also the flame will become bigger because it is exposed to sufficient air, which is not conducive to fighting. In addition, drivers should regularly maintain their vehicles, check their circuits and oil circuits, and do not modify their internal circuits and parts without permission. Do not store flammable and explosive articles such as lighters, perfumes, reading glasses, canned gas, carbonated drinks, batteries, charging treasures, plastic toys, etc. in the car, and equip them with fire extinguishers in case of emergency.

　　On March 1, the new SAIC Audi A7L, the luxury flagship of C + class performance, was officially launched, including the regular version and the special version models – Darth Vader Edition and RS Suite Racing Edition, providing two power versions of 45TFSI and 55TFSI, with a total of 7 configuration models.

　　The new SAIC Audi A7L brings two different styles of exterior design, dynamic suit and trendy suit, which vividly interprets the sports gene and aesthetic design of Audi’s century-old brand. Among them, the dynamic suit has newly upgraded the design of the middle grid, side air intake and rear diffuser, and uses dynamic components to enhance the visual impact of the body to create a sporty and full body image.

　　Well-versed in the personalized needs of the trendy elite for styling styles, the new SAIC Audi A7L listed this time has added a variety of wheel hub styles and color schemes. Among them, the wheel hub shape has added 21-inch double V-shaped 5-spoke aluminum alloy wheels and red calipers to add more eye-catching highlights to the vehicle. In terms of color scheme, two new exterior colors, constant gray and smoky brown, are available. The constant gray has a high gray level, and it is more profound when it is silent; the red ratio is reduced in the color scheme of smoky brown, and with the shining process of metallic paint, it presents a noble mystery under the light. In terms of details in the car, every part is full of luxury. The new interior color is luxurious and elegant brown, which combines luxury with restrained aesthetics to create a high-end leather seat choice. In addition, the new SAIC Audi A7L entry-level model is equipped with a polished silver brushed aluminum trim as standard, leaving behind any lines and styling modifications, and moderate white space highlights the key areas of human-vehicle interaction. The model is equipped with an extended leather equipment package as standard, upgraded leather airbag cover with stitches, three-spoke steering wheel paddle shifter to add chrome decoration, and the center console and door edge are covered with more delicate leather, creating a leapfrog texture experience from visual perception to touch.

　　For the urban trendy elite, the car is not only a means of transportation, but also an irreplaceable cultural and spiritual symbol. The Audi RS spirit represents the sense of power and courage that goes forward, and also represents the perfect combination of performance and trendy design. Born in the resonance of the enterprising and RS spirit in the new era, the new SAIC Audi A7L RS kit racing version makes yearning possible.

　　The RS kit racing version is based on a dynamic suit, and a bright black tail is added to the tailcar to form a streamlined duck tail that highlights the sports attributes, optimizing the wind resistance coefficient while also distinguishing the limited model identity. The exclusive limited exterior color arrow feather gray is added, which adopts a luxurious and high-end pearlescent spraying method. The gloss layer is deep and smart, releasing a unique and trendy beauty. The new interior color shadow gray is also exclusive to the RS kit racing version. The super sports seat in the car is equipped with Wagner leather seat fabric with diamond diamond diamond pattern contrasting stitching, and the RS Logo is engraved to form a layered overall color match. The RS kit racing version is equipped with exclusive 21-inch 5-spoke aluminum alloy RS wheels, inheriting the RS family-style design. The surface of the wheel hub adopts a bright black treatment method, and the white RS Logo is engraved on the outer ring. The red calipers are like a beating heart, and the surging trend is difficult to contain. It is worth mentioning that the new SAIC Audi A7L is the first model designed by the Audi family with four-door RS exclusive welcome lights. As the door is opened, the cold white RS logo is moved, allowing the RS spirit to be embedded in every detail of the driver.

　　Following the A7L’s wide-bodied sports style and silent electric suction frameless doors, the new SAIC Audi A7L has a more personalized and enterprising design language, which perfectly integrates avant-garde, trendy aesthetics and century-old design heritage and brightens the eyes. It is believed that it will become the dream Audi car of more young elite users.

　　The new SAIC Audi A7L is not only responsible for its appearance, but also uncompromising in its strength. In early 2024, the SAIC Audi A7L won the "Best Control Car" award from China National Radio and Television "China Automobile Festival" for its excellent handling performance. The handling strength has won "double recognition" from authorities and users. The new SAIC Audi A7L 55TFSI is equipped with a 3.0T V6 turbocharged engine and a 48V light hybrid system, with a maximum power of 250kW. In terms of transmission system, the model is equipped with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, allowing the driver to enjoy an excellent handling experience. At the same time, the model can be equipped with the only active air suspension and dynamic all-wheel steering combination in the same class, which makes the filter performance more advanced and the body posture stable and calm. With the support of Audi’s quattro ultra intelligent four-wheel drive technology, the new SAIC Audi A7L can accurately anticipate road conditions, flexibly distribute power, and demonstrate strong control over different road conditions.

　　The coexistence of appearance and strength is the source of the endless charm of the new SAIC Audi A7L, and it is also the "luxury new power" attitude advocated by SAIC Audi – on top of Audi’s century-old luxury gene, incorporating more personalized and avant-garde design concepts and user experience, leading the SAIC Audi brand to continue to rise.

　　It is worth mentioning that SAIC Audi has actively updated its marketing policy. During the event, the 45TFSI luxury model starts from 378,700 yuan, the 45TFSI four-wheel drive quattro model starts from 402,700 yuan, and the new RS kit racing version starts from 442,700 yuan. In addition, returning overseas car owners can also enjoy subsidies starting from 65,000 yuan. Let more young elite users get started and enjoy luxury, and pocket this dream car with both luxury texture and trendy details.

　　Looking to the future, SAIC Audi will continue to inherit the enterprising spirit of the Audi brand, not only launching more innovative products, but also continuing to lead the new trend of luxury travel, providing owners with a unique driving experience. As a new force, it will inject new vitality into Audi and witness a younger, more enterprising and more personalized luxury brand.

　　Screenshot of American Governance Magazine website

　　China Daily Online, August 17th (Dang Chaofeng) The website of American Governance Magazine recently published an article by Raphael E. Rogers, a professor at Clark University, denouncing that some American politicians have tried to restrict the discussion on the history of American slavery in the classroom by legislation over the past year or so. The following is a selection of articles:

　　Of all the subjects taught in American public schools, few have caused so much controversy as racism and slavery in the United States.

　　In the past year and a half, a large number of legislative bills proposed mainly by Republicans have attracted people’s attention. These bills, often called anti-critical racial theory legislation, are aimed at limiting the way teachers discuss race and racism in the classroom.

　　A more peculiar by-product of this legislation came from Texas. In June 2022, an advisory group of nine educators suggested that slavery be called "involuntary relocation". The idea finally failed.

　　As an educator who trains teachers how to educate young students about the history of slavery in the United States, I think the Texas proposal is part of a disturbing trend that politicians try to cover up the terrible and cruel nature of slavery and make it separate from the birth and development of the country.

　　Texas’s proposal stems from work done under Texas law, which stipulates that slavery and racism cannot be taught as part of the "real founding" of the United States.

　　In order to better understand the nature of slavery and its role in the development of the United States, it is helpful to grasp some basic facts, that is, how long slavery lasted in the United States and how many enslaved people it involved. I also believe in using real records to show students the reality of slavery.

　　Before "may flower"

　　Slavery in the United States usually dates back to 1619. According to the records of the colonist John Rolfe, at that time, a ship named "White Lion" sent more than 20 enslaved Africans to Virginia.

　　As for the statement that slavery is not part of the founding of the United States, the American Constitution itself is easy to refute. Specifically, article 1, paragraph 9, item 1 stipulates that before 1808, that is, within 20 years after the Constitution came into effect, Congress shall not legislate to prohibit the trade of imported slaves. In 1808, Congress finally passed the Slave Import Prohibition Act.

　　Although the bill imposed severe punishment on international traders, it did not end slavery itself or the domestic slave trade. Not only did it transfer trade underground, but also many illegally traded ships were brought into the United States, and their "passengers" were sold as slaves.

　　The last known slave ship "Clothilda" arrived in Mobile, Alabama in 1860, more than half a century after Congress banned the import of slaves.

　　source map

　　According to the transatlantic slave trade database from shipping records from 1525 to 1866, about 12.5 million enslaved Africans were transported to America. About 10.7 million people survived the "intermediate voyage" and arrived in North America, the Caribbean and South America. Among them, only 388,000 people arrived in North America.

　　Therefore, most enslaved people in the United States entered slavery not through import or "involuntary migration", but through birth.

　　From the first batch of more than 20 enslaved Africans arrived in the United States in 1619 to the abolition of slavery in 1865, about 10 million slaves lived in the United States and contributed 410 billion hours of labor. This is why from the founding of the People’s Republic of China to the Civil War, slavery was the "key cornerstone" to understand the American economy.

　　The value of historical records

　　I think it is valuable to use historical records to educate students about the harsh reality of slavery. I especially recommend three types of records.

　　1. Census records

　　Since every census from 1790 to 1860 counted the number of enslaved people, census records enabled students to learn a lot about who actually owned slaves. Census records also enable students to see the differences in slave ownership between States and across the country.

　　The census also showed that the slave population increased with time-from 697,624 in the first census shortly after the founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1790 to 3.95 million in the census in 1860, when the country was on the verge of civil war.

　　2. Advertisements for fugitive slaves

　　Few things can illustrate the horror and harm of slavery like the advertisements made by slave owners for runaway slaves.

　　It is not difficult to find that the escaped slaves described in the advertisement are covered with all kinds of beaten scars and traces of soldering irons.

　　source map

　　On July 3, 1823, Daeghling, the slave owner, paid $25 to advertise in The Star and the North Carolina Gazette to find Ned, a fugitive slave. He described it as follows:

　　"About 21 years old, weighing about 150 kg, well-proportioned, full of energy, lively and lovely, looks fierce, a little yellow, and his front teeth are a little defective. I estimate that there are some traces of whipping on his hips and thighs, because he was whipped like this the day before he left."

　　Advertisements of fugitive slaves can be accessed through digital databases, such as Freedom in Action, which contains more than 32,000 advertisements. Another database, the North Carolina fugitive slave notice project, contains 5000 advertisements published in North Carolina newspapers from 1751 to 1865. The huge number of these advertisements reveals how many enslaved blacks are trying to escape from slavery.

　　3. Personal narrative of enslaved people

　　Although the number is small, there are still recordings of interviews with former slaves.

　　For various reasons, some of these interviews have problems. For example, some interviews are heavily edited by interviewees, or do not include complete and word-for-word interview transcripts.

　　However, these interviews still let us see the harshness of slavery.

　　Fountain Hughes was a slave. When asked whether he wanted to be free or enslaved, he told the interviewer:

　　"Do you know what I would rather do? If I were still a slave, I would take a gun and end it at once, because you are just a dog. You are nothing but a dog. You never have nothing to do for a night. Is it time to cut tobacco? If they want you to cut in the field all night, you have to. It doesn’t matter whether you are tired or not. You dare not say that you are tired. "

　　Ironically, when it comes to educating American students about the horror of American slavery and how it is deeply rooted in American political institutions, some politicians prefer to use restrictive laws to bind educators. What they can do is to let educators freely teach the role of slavery in the formation of a country, which is based on the principles of freedom and equality, as stipulated by the laws of Texas.
