Tao Tao Xingzhi was originally from Taojiayan, Huiji County, Shaoxing Prefecture, Zhejiang Province, and later moved to Xi Gu, Anhui Province, and soon moved to Huangtanyuan Village, west of Huizhou (Shexian County) ancient city. Tao Xingzhi's father's name is Huai Qing. He took over a soy sauce garden of his ancestors, and then went bankrupt due to social and economic depression. Mother Cao Cui (Lè). Tao Xingzhi lived in an eventful autumn when the motherland was in peril. Starting from 1926, the Declaration of China Education Reform Society on Transforming Rural Education in China was issued. Xiaozhuang School was founded in 1927. 1932 Life Education Society and Shanhai Engineering Group were established. Imagine taking education as the main means to improve people's lives. After the December 9th Movement, with the help and influence of China's * * * production party, he actively publicized the anti-Japanese war and participated in the democratic movement, and further realized that education should serve the national revolution and the democratic revolution. In August, 1938 launched the China Amateur School, advocating Hong Kong compatriots to go to the national disaster together. 1In July, 939, Yucai School was established in Chongqing, Sichuan to train children with special talents.

Tao Xingzhi's handwriting (1930 Summer)
[2] My ancestral home is Shaoxing, Zhejiang. When I was 6 years old, I often played in my neighbor's hall. Seeing the couplets hanging on the wall of the hall, I sat on the ground and copied them. A scholar in the next village saw me and thought I was a child prodigy, so I enlightened him for free. Later, I went to Wu Erkuan, a children's museum in my hometown. At the age of 65,438+04, he entered Chongyi School run by Shexian Christian Mainland Association. On the wall of the dormitory where he slept, the words "I am from China and should make some contribution to China" were written, expressing his patriotic enthusiasm and encouraging himself to study hard for the early modernization of the motherland. 1908 At the age of 17, he was admitted to Hangzhou Guangji Medical Hall, hoping to relieve the suffering of working people by studying medicine and realize his ambition of serving the motherland. However, because this missionary school discriminates against students who are not enrolled, he doesn't want his thoughts to be dominated by foreigners. After only three days in school, he left the school angrily. 1909 was admitted to Nanjing Huiwen College and transferred to the liberal arts department of Jinling University the following year. During his college years, influenced by the Revolution of 1911, he actively participated in the patriotic activities of the school, edited the Chinese version of Jin Lingguang Newspaper, and publicized the thoughts of national democratic revolution. In the publication declaration of Jin Lingguang, he called on all the students to study hard, work hard, shine their own light and heat, serve the motherland, and "make China brighter than the world". After the outbreak of the Revolution of 1911, he returned to his hometown to take part in the revolutionary movement. 19 14, he graduated with the highest total score. 19 14 studied in the United States, obtained a master's degree in political science from the University of Illinois, and then studied education at Columbia University under Dewey. 1965438+returned to China in the autumn of 2007, and successively served as a professor and academic director of Nanjing Normal University, National Southeast University. He began his creative and arduous educational career. By studying western educational thoughts and combining with China's national conditions, this paper puts forward educational theories such as "life is education", "society is school" and "integration of teaching and learning". He attached great importance to rural education and thought it was very important to popularize education among more than 300 million farmers. At the end of the same year, he and Cai Yuanpei initiated the establishment of China Education Reform Association, which advocated opposing imperialist cultural aggression, recovering education rights and promoting education reform. 1923, Yan et al. initiated the establishment of China Civilian Education Promotion Association, and later set up civilian literacy reading offices and civilian schools in various places to promote the civilian education movement. 1in March, 927, Xiaozhuang School, a rural normal school, was founded in Xiaozhuang, a northern suburb of Nanjing, and the first rural kindergarten, Yanziji Kindergarten, was founded. 1April 930, wanted by the Kuomintang, forced into exile in Japan, advocating the idea of saving the country through science and education. 193 1 year returned to China to popularize education and set up a natural science park and a children's science communication school in Shanghai. Editor-in-chief of children's science series, etc. 1932 founded the Shanhai engineering corps, proposing that "workers should keep healthy, students should learn to be bright, and students should be protected by the corps", integrating workshops, schools and society, and conducting military training, production training, civil rights training, and fertility training. And also launched the "Mr. Xiao" movement. 1935, inspired by the "August 1st Declaration" of China's * * * production party, he took an active part in the anti-Japanese national salvation movement. After the "December 9th Movement", Soong Ching Ling, Ma, Shen Junru, Zou Taofen and others formed the Shanghai Cultural Salvation Society. At the beginning of 1936, the National Society for Disaster Education was established and promoted to the position of president, with Zhang Jinfu as the director-general, and a national disaster education program was drawn up, combining life education with the struggle for national democratic revolution. In May, he was elected as the Executive Committee and Standing Committee of the National Salvation Federation from all walks of life. With Shen Junru, Zhang Naiqi, Zou Taofen, etc. Jointly issued the "Joint Declaration against Aggression", advocating stopping the civil war and resisting Japan. Mao Zedong expressed its support. In July, he was sent by the National Salvation Association to visit 28 countries in Europe, America, Asia and Africa to publicize the anti-Japanese national salvation and introduce China's mass education movement. Attended the Brussels World Peace Conference and was elected as a member of the Executive Committee of China. During this period, when he learned that Shen Junru and other "seven gentlemen" were arrested, he was very angry. He immediately contacted Dewey, Einstein, Russell and other world famous people to jointly electrify Chiang Kai-shek and rescue the Seven Gentlemen. 1938 participated in the National Political Council and devoted himself to educational activities during the Anti-Japanese War. Actively responding to the call of all-round anti-Japanese war put forward by China's * * * production party, China wartime education association was established. 1939 In July, Yucai School was established in Gusheng Temple, Hechuan County, near Chongqing, Sichuan Province, mainly to recruit children with difficulties. 194 1 year, participated in the creation of China democratic political league.

From 65438 to 0945, he joined the China Democratic League and served as a member of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee.
Yucai School founded by Tao Xingzhi
Chairman of the board of education. /kloc-in June, 2000, Social University was established in Chongqing, with Li Gongpu as vice president and provost. The aim of social university is "people create a big society and society becomes a university hall", and "the way of university lies in understanding people's morality, getting close to people and stopping at people's happiness", which has effectively promoted the process of democratic education. In April, I returned to Shanghai and immediately threw myself into the struggle against dictatorship, democracy, civil war and peace. In the last 100 days of his life, he made 100 speeches in factories, schools, institutions and squares. On the morning of July 25th, Deng, Shen Junru, etc. Because of overwork for a long time, poor health, and deeply stimulated by friends Li and Wen, I hurried to visit. But the rescue was invalid and he died in Shanghai at the age of 55. The editor's main contribution to this paragraph is that Tao Xingzhi's educational activities were carried out in the social environment of national peril and national disaster at that time, so his educational practice was accompanied by democratic and patriotic activities. After he joined the Revolution of 1911, the September 18th Incident and the November 28th Incident in his early years, he took an active part in the anti-Japanese national salvation movement, initiated the Shanghai Cultural Salvation Association and organized the National Disaster Education Society. He first noticed the problems of rural education, and successively founded Xiaozhuang School, Life Education Society, Shanhai Engineering Group, Yucai School and Social University. Mr. Tao has run many schools of various types in his life, trained a large number of useful talents for the society, and sent many revolutionary youths to Yan 'an and Dabie Mountain anti-Japanese base areas to participate in the revolution. Propagandize life education, advocate the integration of teaching and learning, and demand the combination of education and practice to serve the people. Put forward three propositions: "life is education", "society is school" and "teaching integration". The main edited works include Education Reform in China, Ringing the Bell in the Ancient Temple, Talking to Zhai Fu, Letters from Xingzhi, Poems and Songs of Xingzhi, etc. The work "President Tao's Speech" was selected in the ninth volume of primary school Chinese textbook published by Jiangsu Education Publishing House, and the first two of the four songs of self-reliance were selected in the first volume of primary school Chinese textbook published by Beijing Normal University Press 10.

"Fight bandits, build bandits" "Today's politics is as dark as hell, which is the so-called official forced rebellion. Officials force the people to change, and the people are safe? What a tragedy it is to force the people to rebel and then surround them! "In my humble opinion, bandits are nothing more than labels given by people who think they are orthodox to people who have different positions or oppose their actions. But in my conscience, no one in this world really wants to be a bandit, but how bandits appeared, that is, who made them, many people don't understand, or pretend not to understand. When an Old Master Q man broke into a museum, he said, "Hum, there is no point in discussing the problem of chickens and eggs now. When bandits appear, they will naturally be eliminated. If the "bandit potential" soars, it will endanger the country, and maybe it will create a water margin. On the other hand, you can't afford to lose face if you leave a few bold guys unattended. Therefore, you can't look at your weight and concentrate on killing bandits. . . . . . . . . Stupid people don't understand. When they see "bandits", they fight with them every day, kill them and keep themselves safe. This wishful thinking will inevitably lead them to shoot themselves in the foot. It can be said that whoever suppresses "bandits" will perish faster, which has been proved by countless facts. Fighting bandits is like pulling a spring. The harder you pull, the more you will rebound. Therefore, when bandits appear, smart people generally don't just try their best, but mostly find another way. Bandits like beautiful women and handsome men, so they send them to comfort them. Bandits like gold and silver jewelry and give them a gold mine; Bandits like to wear black gauze, so they squint and seal it up. . . Anyway, in a word, just keep it Hey, even Song Huizong, who only knows painting all day, understands this truth. After the fight, he wooed the heroes of the Water Margin, and Song Jiang finally gave in. Song Dynasty was the dynasty with the worst martial arts. The descendants of Lao Zhao's family were scared by bandits, but they were not destroyed by bandits in the end, which makes sense. The things in the novel are not credible. To put it more bluntly, the old woman I hate most, Cixi, wrestled with the Boxer and lost to the enemy. She has a brain teaser and uses it. Finally, the unsuspecting boxer was miserable. The old woman can't govern the country, but no one can deny that she is not a smart person. However, I think the most stupid and hopeless, waiting for genocide, are those who create bandits, with great fanfare to suppress the guy. They are simply full and have nothing to do. These idiots don't know how to get into the water or anything. They never want to be "vicious" robbers. Why don't these "bandits" camp in other places and engage in revolution? ! Ha, I think the funniest thing is that some people are sneaking around as bandits, but they accuse kind and lovely people of being "bandits" and insist on using submachine guns to suppress "bandits" and play the role of justice! We took over the unfinished work of the creator of the creation declaration and continued to create. Religious people create trance for their worship. The highest created the God, followed by the hero God, and then created the God of Wealth, the landowner and the landlady for them to worship. People who save trouble worship ready-made gods created by others. Love supremacists create lovers to worship. Stupid people turn their lovers into ugly and shameless sluts in the name of love. He who treats his lover as a fool is not the devil who pursues the supremacy of love, but the devil who pursues bottomless evil, because he treats his lover as a devil woman. Artists, such as Rodin, worship their own creations when building stone statues. Educators do not make gods, statues or lovers. What they want to create is a living person who is true, good and beautiful. The living who are true, good and beautiful are our gods, our stone statues and our lovers. The success of teachers is to create people worthy of their worship, and the greatest happiness of teachers is to create students worthy of their worship. More correctly, teachers create students and students create teachers. Students cooperate to create living people worthy of mutual worship. If an ugly living person is created, it is not only the failure of sculpture, but also the failure of co-sculptors. If the statue of the living is created by the collective rather than the individual, then the success or failure belongs to the collective rather than the individual. In a collective, the statue of every living person is one man's knife, and another man's knife, sometimes a thousand knives are issued at once. If the knife method does not match the rhythm of the symphony, it will be scarred and it will be difficult to become a living statue of truth, goodness and beauty. Putting a little noise in the knife symphony is a slander on the whole harmony. Educators should also create creative theories and techniques worthy of their worship. A statue of a living person is a little different from a marble statue. If the knife method is not used properly, all images can be destroyed at the same time. The right knife technique is the finishing touch. Some people say that the environment is too ordinary to create. Ordinary is just a blank sheet of paper. Badashan people just paint a few strokes.
Take a photo with Mao Zedong at the airport.
A precious masterpiece. Ordinary is just a stone, which can become an immortal statue in the hands of Pheidias and Michelangelo. Some people say that life is too monotonous and uncreative. Nothing is more monotonous than sitting in prison, but it is in prison that the hexagrams of the Book of Changes, the Song of Benevolence and Righteousness, the national anthem of the Soviet Union and Nehru's autobiography are produced. Nothing is more monotonous than the desert. Lesseps can actually create the Suez Canal in the desert, connecting the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea. Opening a meat bun shop is too monotonous, but inside, it produces an ordinary and great peace. It can be seen that ordinary monotony is just a lazy word. Since it is extraordinary and monotonous, there is no need to create. We want to create extraordinary in the ordinary; Do not create monotony in monotony. Some people say: too young to write, laughing at the name of a young graduate student. But when you show him Mozart, Edison and Pascal who broke through his father's blockade of mathematics, he will be speechless again. Some people say: I am too incompetent to create. Zeng Shen, who was dull by Lu, inherited Confucius' orthodoxy, illiterate wisdom and Huang Mei's teachings. Huineng said, "The inferior is wise." How can I give up on myself? So incompetence is also an excuse. Silkworms can still spin silk after eating mulberry leaves. Don't we eat white rice every day and do nothing but manure? Some people say: there is no way out, you are in a desperate situation, just waiting for death, you can't create. However, Xuanzang, who met with the eighty-one difficulty, finally got the Buddhist scriptures; After all, Columbus, who was short of food and water, discovered America; Mozart finally wrote a requiem under the triple oppression of freezing and hunger. Despair is a coward's fantasy. Goethe said: Without courage, everything is over. Yes, it takes courage to discover, come out and make a living. This is only half the truth. Heroes are useless, they need a fearless axe, a wise sword, and King Kong's faith and will to open up a way out. As the old saying goes, if you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will pass. You need wisdom to know how to be enlightened. You need fearless spirit and King Kong's faith and will to be enlightened. So everywhere is the place of creation, every day is the time of creation, and everyone is a creative person. Let's take at least two steps back and go to the road of creation. Like water under the eaves, bit by bit, it drips on the steps along the stone. Bit by bit creation is not as good as the whole creation, but don't underestimate bit by bit creation and wait for big creation to fall from the sky. Dongshan woodcutter cut down all the thatch in Dongshan and went to Taishan to cut thatch. The first impression he got from Mount Tai was that there were not so many thatches in Dongshan. The "Stone Valley", "Wordless Monument", "Six Immortals Temple" and "Jade Emperor Peak" on Mount Tai, the strange peaks and rocks carved by nature, waterfalls and waterfalls, the birds and animals in captivity, and the trees planted by farmers for thousands of years are useless to him, that is to say, they have never seen them. As for the realm of climbing Mount Tai and being small in the world, I can't see it, because I am eager to cut thatch. Every time I pull a pile of shit up the mountain, I pee down the mountain and carry a load of thatch home. Urine is his contribution to Mount Tai, and thatching is his harvest from Mount Tai. Thatched grass is an ordinary grass, and Taishan can only give it to him. There are not many in Dongshan, so he concluded that Taishan is an ordinary mountain, which is more common than Dongshan from the point of view of mowing grass, so he said, "Taishan is not as good as Dongshan." This was heard by a tree seedling in Mount Tai. He thought that he would always stand on an inch of land and be surrounded by thatch all the year round. He felt ordinary, monotonous and boring, wavered in vain, and fantasized about changing the environment. One seedling thinks this way, two seedlings think this way, and three seedlings think this way. Over time, it has become a trend, one after another, day after day, I heard the young sapling say to the woodcutter, "Grandpa, would you like to take me to Dongshan to play?" The woodcutter always pulls them out at will, binds them one by one with thatch, and picks Dongshan to cook for his old woman. We can only occasionally see a few wisps of black smoke from the chimney of the woodcutter's thatched cottage. Who can tell which layer is a sapling and which strand is the embodiment of thatch?
Tao Xingzhi founded the Social University and served as its president.
A mower can also become an old farmer who plants trees, if he is willing to meet the God of Creation and live in his heart. I admit that even the woodcutter in Dongshan has a little creative function-shaving the hair of Mount Tai, but we hope not to shave off our nose or eyebrows. God of creation! Come back! The moving seedlings you cultivate have fantasies, and the woodcutter comes with a discerning sickle every day, and even often comes to Miao's dreams. You can't give up your responsibility. As long as you are willing to come back, we are willing to dedicate everything-our sweat, our blood, our heart and our life-to you. Aren't you happy when you see the seedlings all over the mountain under your supervision, watered with our sweat, blood, hard work and life, and grown into towering trees one by one? God of creation! Come back! Only by coming back can we ensure the growth of towering trees. Rodin said: "Evil is dry, sweat is dry, blood is dry, enthusiasm is dry, rigidity is dead, and only the dead have no intention of creating. As long as there is a drop of sweat, a drop of blood and a drop of enthusiasm, it is the palace that the god of creation loves to live in, and it can blossom and bear the fruit of creation and breed the forest of creation. Hand-brain Long song: Two treasures in life, hand-brain. Use your head, not your hand, and you will be knocked down. Use your hands instead of your brain, and you won't have enough to eat. You can be a great person who started the world with your hands and brain! Editing this historical background Tao Xingzhi's study experience Tao Xingzhi devoted himself to education, which is closely related to the environment in which he grew up. Tao Xingzhi lived in an eventful autumn when the motherland was in peril. Since the outbreak of the Opium War, China has changed from a closed feudal society to a society opened to the outside world by imperialist powers with guns.
At Columbia University
Forced to open to the outside world and become a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. Living in such an era, Tao Xingzhi saw with his own eyes that the broad masses of working people living at the bottom of society, especially the peasants who accounted for more than 80% of China's population, lived a miserable life of poverty, ignorance, backwardness, oppression and bullying. On the other hand, due to the experience of studying in the United States, Tao Xingzhi realized more deeply some disadvantages of traditional education in the motherland and was determined to reform it. He saw with his own eyes the advanced things of some developed countries in the world. The sharp contrast between advanced countries and backward countries greatly stimulated Tao Xingzhi's concern for the country and the people. He earnestly hopes that the motherland can change its poverty and backwardness as soon as possible and enter the ranks of advanced countries in the world as soon as possible. Tao Xingzhi's father (real name Chao, real name Huai Qing) made a living by teaching, and his mother Cao Cui (Lè) took over a soy sauce garden, and later went bankrupt due to social and economic depression. Tao Xingzhi was educated at the age of 6 because he was smart and eager to learn. 15 years old, my mother works as a housekeeper in Chongyi School of Shexian Christian Middle School. Tao Xingzhi often goes there to help his mother do something, which is led by Tang Jingxian, the principal of the school. He enters school for free. On the wall of the dormitory where he sleeps, the words "I am from China and should make some contribution to China" are written. He completed three years' courses in two years and graduated with honors. 17 years old was admitted to Hangzhou Guangji Medical Hall. I want to relieve the pain of working people by studying medicine and realize my ambition of serving the motherland. However, because this missionary school discriminates against students who are not enrolled, he doesn't want his thoughts to be dominated by foreigners. After only three days in school, he left the school angrily. 1909 was admitted to Nanjing Huiwen College and transferred to the liberal arts department of Jinling University the following year. He studied more consciously and diligently in order to better realize his desire to serve his country. In college, he initiated and edited the Chinese version of the school magazine Jin Lingguang, and wrote the article Jin Lingguang Publishing Declaration, calling on all students to study hard, work hard, make their own light and heat, serve the motherland, and "make China brighter than the world". After the outbreak of the Revolution of 1911, he returned to his hometown to take part in the revolutionary movement. 19 14, he graduated with the highest total score. He wrote in his graduation thesis "* * * and Essence": "People are poor, and education is the only way to get rich; People's stupidity is not education but wisdom; The party's opinion is not education; Loyal, non-academic. " This shows that he has deeply realized the position and role of education in improving the quality of the people and promoting the progress and development of the country, and also reflects that he has basically established his thoughts and aspirations of devoting himself to education and serving the motherland. After graduation, he went to study in America. He first studied municipal administration at the University of Illinois, and after half a year, he resolutely transferred to Columbia University, where he studied education with American educators such as Dewey, Monroe and Ke Boqu. Because he realized that studying municipal administration can only be an official, but not save the country. 19 17 after graduation, he resolutely declined the invitation of the school to continue studying abroad and embarked on the sacred road of devoting himself to education and serving the motherland. On the boat when he returned to China, he talked with his classmates about his future ambitions and said heroically, "I want to give all the people of China an opportunity to receive education." . When Tao Xingzhi came back from the United States, the May 4th New Culture Movement was rising in China. He immediately devoted himself to the educational reform with great enthusiasm, determined to change the way of running schools that only served the upper rulers, and sought a new dawn of education in China with civilian education. He believes that the fundamental problem of education reform in China lies in the countryside and advocates "going to the people". He also has a great ambition, raising 6,543,800 yuan, recruiting 6,543,800 comrades, advocating the establishment of 6,543,800 schools and transforming 6,543,800 villages. Oppose the bad tradition of advocating "the industrious rule the people" and breaking away from productive labor. Although an international student came back from the United States, he took off his suit and put on sandals to open up wasteland with teachers and students and advocated learning the "Nanniwan spirit". In order to realize his ideal, Tao Xingzhi founded a rural normal school in Xiaozhuang, outside the central gate of Nanjing, on 1926, and became the principal himself. In Xiaozhuang Normal School, which enjoys a good reputation at home and abroad, Tao Xingzhi took off his suit and put on sandals, and opened up wasteland with teachers and students to build huts together. He put forward such theories as "life is education", "society is school", "integration of teaching and learning" and "hard work" in order to "develop students' life skills". During the Anti-Japanese War, Tao Xingzhi founded Yucai School in Chongqing and applied the theory of "life education" to the practice of cultivating "talented people". According to students' interests and conditions, Yucai School selects outstanding children with special talents and employs a large number of experts and scholars as teachers. The school not only gives students cultural lessons, but also strives to closely integrate with social practice. Tao Xingzhi also sent students such as Dai and others to the Eighth Route Army office in Chongqing to study yangko operas such as "Brother and Sister Land Reclamation" and organize campus performances. He also advocated learning the "Nanniwan Spirit", led teachers and students to reclaim 30 mu of land and establish a Yucai farm. This remarkable pioneering work in the history of modern education in China made Tao Xingzhi's unique educational theory and practice famous at home and abroad. The character struggle is aimed at Chiang Kai-shek's attack on the Soviet area in the name of "suppressing bandits". Tao Xingzhi commented in Shen Bao that "the bandits in the whole country today are all caused by dark politics". Chiang Kai-shek flew into a rage and ordered Tao Xingzhi to ban postal delivery. When he devoted himself to civilian education, he always paid attention to political movements in society. 1930 In the spring, teachers and students of Xiaozhuang Teachers College held a demonstration to protest against the beating of workers by British businessmen and Hutchison. During the Chiang-Feng War, because Tao Xingzhi and Feng Yuxiang had a close personal relationship, Chiang Kai-shek decided to go to Xiao Zhuang.
Tao Xingzhi
The incident was in response to Feng Yuxiang's anti-Chiang action, so he angrily ordered Xiaozhuang Normal School to close and wanted the principal, and Tao Xingzhi was forced into exile in Japan. After the arrest was lifted, it took a year for Tao Xingzhi to return to Shanghai, which strengthened his determination to resist Chiang Kai-shek's dictatorship. During his stay in Shanghai, Tao Xingzhi was recommended by Huang Yanpei and appointed as the consultant of the famous domestic newspaper Shenbao. He published a large number of essays and commentaries under the pseudonym "Buchu Cao Zhai Fu". At that time, Chiang Kai-shek attacked the Soviet area led by the * * * production party in the name of "suppressing * *". Tao Xingzhi successively published three comments, including "Fighting bandits and making bandits", which shocked the world and pointed out: "Today's bandits in the whole country are caused by dark politics." The Kuomintang authorities soon found out that these articles were written by Tao Xingzhi. Chiang Kai-shek flew into a rage and instructed: "It is forbidden to declare and post." In order to declare the museum's survival plan, the general manager Shi endured humiliation and said that he would not continue to publish Tao Xingzhi's articles in the future, and Chiang Kai-shek would lift the ban. 1936 When the "Seven Gentlemen Incident" happened, Tao Xingzhi was visiting abroad. Shen Junru said: If Tao Xingzhi stays in China, he will definitely stay with us, and the "prison of seven gentlemen" will become the "prison of eight gentlemen". Facing the deepening foreign invasion and the dark rule of China, Tao Xingzhi felt that he could not just sit in the study on campus. After the December 9th Movement broke out, he initiated the establishment of the National Salvation Federation with Soong Ching Ling, Zou Taofen and other celebrities. 1July, 936, served as the "national diplomatic envoy" of the National Salvation Association and visited 26 countries in Europe, Asia and Africa to win the support of overseas Chinese and international friends for China's anti-Japanese struggle. When passing through Hong Kong, he and Shen Junru, Zhang Naiqi and others jointly published the Declaration of Unity and Resistance to Aggression, agreeing with China Producers' Party's idea of establishing an anti-Japanese national united front. This declaration shocked both at home and abroad, and was warmly supported by the Central Committee of China and Mao Zedong. During his visit, the Kuomintang government arrested the leader of China Salvation Association, and Tao Xingzhi was wanted again. Shen Junru later said: If Tao Xingzhi stays at home, he will definitely stay with us, and the "prison of seven gentlemen" will become the "prison of eight gentlemen". After Li Gongpu and Wen Yiduo were assassinated, I heard that the spy listed him as the next target. He immediately said, "I'm waiting for the third shot" and sent a letter to Yucai teachers and students: "If you die for democracy, you must step up efforts to motivate 10,000 people to make up for it." In the long-term struggle for democracy and the people's right to education, Tao Xingzhi read many works of Marxism-Leninism and central documents, and on the basis of increasingly consistent thoughts, he and Zhou Enlai and others. During his visit to Europe, Tao Xingzhi visited Max's tomb three times and wrote a poem: "The light shines on the world, and the big talk wakes up." When he was in charge of Yucai School in Chongqing, he invited Deng to carry out revolutionary traditional education for teachers and students. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Tao Xingzhi, as the director of the NLD Central Democratic Education Committee, worked closely with the * * * Production Party and actively participated in the struggle against civil war, dictatorship and democracy. The social university he founded in Chongqing has become a bastion of Democrats. 1April, 946, Tao Xingzhi came to Shanghai. Three months later, it was reported that Li Gongpu and Wen Yiduo were assassinated by Kuomintang agents. Tao Xingzhi was so angry when he heard the news that he gave speeches everywhere to condemn him. When it is said in the society that the spy listed him as the next assassination target, he sent his secretary Chen to the police and told him to be careful of the spy's silent pistol. Tao Xingzhi immediately said firmly: "I am waiting for the third shot!" He also left a letter to Yucai teachers and students, and issued a clank oath that "we must step up our appeal for ten thousand people to make up for our death for democracy".
