Abstract
- The author relates her experiences on the cultural and political differences of China and the U.S. She asserts that she experienced more liberty and freedom from physical threats in Beijing than in any American state that is founded on liberty. She was surprised about the poverty issues in the U.S. and the rally on illegal abortion. According to her, American advocacy of rights and freedom is an irony that the only developed country is imprisoning women for improper care of their pregnancy. Meanwhile, minorities are offered to participate in their culture are given special dispensations. In addition, China allows families to have more than child.
