Xiang Jingyu, born on this day in 1895, was one of the earliest female members of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and a pioneer of the women's movement of China. She was executed by Guomindang police on May 1st, 1928.

Xiang Jingyu was politically radicalized when she attended the Montargis Women's University in France. While studying there, Jingyu read many of Marx's works and became a communist.

In 1923, Xiang became editor of a weekly supplement to The Republican Daily, a Guomindang newspaper. The same year Xiang Jingyu was also elected as a Central Committee member and became the first secretary of the "Women's Movement Committee".

In 1924, Xiang led a strike involving about ten thousand female workers from silk factories. Then, she founded the "Committee of Women's Liberation" and trained many female cadres, who then became a force against feudalism and imperialism.

Xiang Jingyu was arrested in the French Concession Sandeli in Wuhan on March 20th, 1928. French officials turned her over to the Guomindang in April. On May 1st, 1928 she was executed.

    I would have rather a Let's Go Johto game for S&Vs spot so those could have a longer development time. Let's Go is such a good way to get older fans back in and showcase older games to younger kids

        After Legends we all know what we want more of. Though would be nice to get something spin-off oriented again

            let's go was made like 4 years after the pokemon go hype died down, I don't think there's a point in making another game with the mobile game catching mechanics

                I feel like gamefreak literally cannot remake johto again at this point because having two regions in one game work make their other games look way worse by comparison. wonder what their plans are after s/v dlc wraps up

                    imagine GF makes a new game with giratina as the mascot legendary and the plot is a parody of the "satanic panic" in the US where evangelicals called pokemon demons
