Bai Xuanxuan May 14, 2012, Shanghai

I am a student. At school I am forced to wear the red scarf and participate in the ceremony to join the Young Pioneers. Students who refuse the red scarf are barred from the classroom. I hereby announce my renunciation of the Youth League and its related organizations, none of which I acknowledge. ... What I wear every day around my neck is nothing more than a piece of red cloth; it means nothing and symbolizes nothing.”
