In this incident, hundreds of villagers formed a mob led by a young nun who was said to be possessed by a deity associated with the famous warrior-king Gesar. In their rampage the mob attacked, mutilated, and killed county officials and local villagers as well as People's Liberation Army troops. This groundbreaking book, the first on the Cultural Revolution in Tibet, revisits the Nyemo Incident, which has long been romanticized as the epitome of Tibetan nationalist resistance against China. Melvyn C. Goldstein, Ben Jiao, and Tanzen Lhundrup demonstrate that far from being a spontaneous battle for independence, this violent event was actually part of a struggle between rival revolutionary groups and was not ethnically based. On the Cultural Revolution in Tibet proffers a sober assessment of human malleability and challenges the tendency to view every sign of unrest in Tibet in ethno-nationalist terms.HistoryChinaTibet Autonomous Region (China)HistoryNyemo Incident, 1969ChinaHistoryCultural Revolution, 1966-1976Electronic books.History951/.5056Goldstein Melvyn C265243Jiao Ben1039101Tanzen Lhundrup1039102MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910456835103321On the Cultural Revolution in Tibet2461101UNINA01997oam 2200529 450 991071596550332120210406104809.0(CKB)5470000002516438(OCoLC)974647407(OCoLC)995470000002516438(EXLCZ)99547000000251643820170306d1992 ua 0engurbn|||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierHydrogeologic, geophysical, and ground-water-quality reconnaissance at and near the Ciba-Geigy Superfund site, Ocean County, New Jersey /by Gary J.

The master teachers.Nat Hentoff, renowned jazz critic, civil liberties activist, and fearless contrarian-"I'm a Jewish atheist civil-libertarian pro-lifer"-has lived through much of jazz's history and has known many of jazz's most important figures, often as friend and confidant. Hentoff has been a tireless advocate for the neglected parts of jazz history, including forgotten sidemen and -women. This volume includes his best recent work-short essays, long interviews, and personal recollections. From Duke Ellington and Louis Armstrong to Ornette Coleman and Quincy Jones, Hentoff brings the jazz greats to life and traces their art to gospel, blues, and many other forms of American music. At the Jazz Band Ball also includes Hentoff's keen, cosmopolitan observations on a wide range of issues. The book shows how jazz and education are a vital partnership, how free expression is the essence of liberty, and how social justice issues like health care and strong civil rights and liberties keep all the arts-and all members of society-strong.MusicHistory and criticismJazzHistory and criticismamerican music.american society.art.biographical.blues music.civil liberties.civil rights.contrarian.duke ellington.engaging.famous jazz musicians.feel good.free expression.gospel.health care.interviews.jazz band ball.jazz critics.jazz history.jazz lovers.jazz music.jazz musicians.jazz scene.louis armstrong.musicians.nonfiction.ornette coleman.personal history.political activists.quincy jones.retrospective.short essays.social justice issues.MusicHistory and criticism.JazzHistory and criticism.781.6509Hentoff Nat1527372MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910792599803321At the jazz band ball3770126UNINA
