The Nanking Massacre
Mr. Holden will show a short film about his 2006 trip to China to study the Nanking Massacre and other atrocities committed by the Japanese against the Chinese through the thirties until 1945.
It will be noted that The Second World War actually began in 1931 with Japanese aggression and not on the date most Westerners or Americans believe it did.
The focus will be on the murder of some 300K Chinese citizens in the then capital city of Nanking, which became known as The Rape of Nanking in 1937.
Iris Chang’s landmark book, The Rape of Nanking will also be discussed.
