The United States is dangerously close to repeating China’s Cultural Revolution, according to the Asian-American Coalition for Education president and author Mike Zhao.
“The communist playbook, unfortunately, … they used to destroy China during the Cultural Revolution ... 50 years ago. Today, the radical left uses the same playbook to destroy America,” Zhao said in a recent interview with NTD News, The Epoch Times’ sister media.
Similarities
As a survivor of Communist China’s Cultural Revolution, Zhao pointed out the similarities in tactics used in American society today to those used in China back then, which are also laid out in his book “Critical Race Theory and Woke Culture: America’s Dangerous Repeat of China’s Cultural Revolution.”
