Hello, teachers and classmates The topic of my speech today is "Don't forget the national humiliation and revitalize China".
You must know the Nanjing Massacre! At that time, the Japanese army slaughtered more than 300,000 people in China. Thousands of people were shot and burned with gasoline. The remains of the ashes were washed away by the river, and there are many undiscovered secret burial places ... How many Nanjing compatriots were killed by the Japanese invaders in just a few months? I'm afraid no one can accurately estimate.
National humiliation is like a mountain on the head of the Chinese nation, which makes hundreds of millions of people breathless. It also fills our young people's hearts with sadness and grief as heavy as lead. China, our ancient China, China, who gave birth to me and raised me, and China, who has a vast territory and abundant resources, are bullied and trampled upon. When can we break the shackles of humiliation and stand up with iron bones?
Throughout the eight-year anti-Japanese war, the invaders trampled on the chest of the motherland. Over the past few years, in Shanghai, a "country within a country", we have also seen British and American soldiers swaggering on the road and foreign warships coming and going on the Huangpu River at will ... Only when we taste the taste of losing freedom and being oppressed can we deeply understand the meaning of the word "don't forget national humiliation". Now whenever I sing "Those who get up don't want to be slaves", I will think of the old saying "Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world".
How many years of vicissitudes, great changes in rivers and mountains, our motherland has long since got rid of humiliation and suffering. However, China is still a developing country, and many countries are still in a backward position. Backwardness is reality. It is shameful to be content with being behind. In some corners of the land of China, the concept of power desire, foolish thinking, corrupt and degenerate style, mercenary, idolizing foreign things and obsessing over foreign things ... all kinds of despicable phenomena make honest people feel ashamed. Perhaps these can be counted as new "national humiliation". We can't tolerate these "national humiliation" that damage the national character and the image of the Chinese nation for a day!
Half a century ago, China was trampled by many imperialists, and our people lost their freedom and right to life. This is a disgrace to our Chinese nation. These humiliations are the pain of our motherland and the sorrow of our Chinese nation. Some people will say, it's over, let it go. Why "forget me"? This is because forgetting "shame" can reduce sadness, but remembering "shame" means remembering the historical trauma of the motherland, which can arouse stronger national spirit, let us know how to cherish today's happy life, remember the sacrifices made by the ancestors of the Chinese nation for the motherland, and enhance our sense of responsibility for the motherland. Only by remembering history and learning lessons can we ensure that there will be no more wars and massacres in the world.
Finally, let's shout: don't forget the national humiliation and love my China!
