To tell the truth, my first presumptions of this whole presentation was that it was going to be a purely informative session, which for the first hour or so was. The terrible things she talked about were ugly, yes, but I don't think the fact that I am Chinese made the rape of Nanjing any different from the Holocaust. I felt bad for both, and I have to say, the descriptions she gave were quite vivid. Nonetheless, I think if the world is to ever achieve a peaceful state, humans as a race should look back in the past only to learn from mistakes and not let the past affect our views and opinions of others.
