The Shanghai Municipal Archives (上海市档案馆) conducted oral history interviews with Chen Xiuliang in 1996, during her hospitalization. The transcripts of these interviews capture a comprehensive account of her life experiences and ideological discourse as both a revolutionary figure and an alleged "rightist." The narrative begins in 1927, when Chen joined the Communist Party in Wuhan, and ends in 1996 when the Chinese government finally took off her "hat" (meaning that it cleared her name as a rightist). Throughout these seventy years, Chen encountered a range of external and domestic incidents, including Japanese aggression, Marxist-Leninist influences, organizing underground activity during the Chinese Civil War, and the Cultural Revolution, as well as personal experiences such as studying abroad, participating in denunciation rallies, and being wrongfully accused as a rightist. These oral history transcripts serve as a valuable record of Chen Xiuliang's life and should be preserved and studied in the field of modern Chinese history to gain a deeper understanding of the political and social landscape of China during the twentieth century.  Browse and view the transcripts by clicking here.
