Event Recap | Passing on the Torch: Remembering the Long March, Nurturing Young Hearts with Red Education

To mark the 90th anniversary of the Long March’s victory, carry forward the spirit of this great historic feat, and foster patriotic sentiments among young people, on October 13, 2026, the red‑education lecture team from the Tang Xianzu Memorial Hall in Fuzhou City visited Linchuan No. 9 Primary School, ensuring that the spirit of the Long March takes root in the hearts of the younger generation.

Two distinctive exhibition areas have been set up on site, guiding students to reflect on the glorious years of the past.

During the patriotic education class titled “Retracing the Long March, Building the Chinese Dream Together,” the lecturer used clear, accessible language to vividly recount the thrilling battles and deeply moving heroic deeds of the Long March, guiding students through that extraordinary and arduous chapter of history. From the historical context of the Long March to the noble character of the Red Army soldiers—undaunted by hardship and unafraid of sacrifice—each compelling story helped students truly grasp the profound meaning of the Long March spirit and appreciate how hard-won today’s peaceful and prosperous life is. The interactive session was lively and engaging, with students listening attentively, thinking critically, and eagerly raising their hands to answer the lecturer’s questions.

Also on display is the traveling exhibition “The Backbone of the Arduous March: Heroic Warriors of the Long March,” which, through illustrated panels, brings to life the grand and stirring saga of the Long March. Each photograph and each passage of text captures a moment of the revolutionary pioneers’ heroic struggle. Students paused before the panels, viewing them with great attention, and, guided by the docent’s thorough explanations, came to appreciate the unwavering ideals and convictions of those who came before them.

The Red Scarf Upholds Our Original Aspiration

A chapter of the Long March is passed down from generation to generation. As a patriotic education base in Jiangxi Province, our museum has consistently brought the memorial hall’s red resources into schools, transforming profound history into dynamic ideological and political classrooms. Moving forward, we will continue to organize a series of “Red Culture on Campus” initiatives, making full use of our red‑heritage venues to tell compelling stories of the revolution, ensuring that the spirit of the Long March takes root and flourishes in the hearts of young people, and guiding children and adolescents to carry forward the red legacy and courageously shoulder the mission of our times.
