Why do you wear purple golden flowers on the day of the Nanjing Massacre?

In order to welcome the "12. 13" national memorial day for the victims of the Nanjing Massacre, Nanjing Radio and Television Station launched the "Zijin Grass Action".

Operation Lithospermum carefully designed the Lithospermum Badge, and advocated people from all walks of life to wear the Lithospermum Badge, and actively participated in various commemorative activities of the "12. 13" National Day of the Victims of the Nanjing Massacre. The "Purple Clover Badge" is a purple clover with four petals and yellow stamens.

1937,300,000 innocent people died in the terrible massacre in Nanjing.

More than 70 years have passed, and the survivors are leaving one after another. "Let generations never forget" has become the unshirkable mission of our generation.

Many pains will fade out of memory after the vicissitudes of time, and some rituals can remind us in the inheritance.

The National People's Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) designated 65438+February 65438+March as the "National Day of Public Sacrifice for the Victims of the Nanjing Massacre", and we are about to usher in the first national day of public sacrifice. Paying homage to the dead with solemn ceremonies to alert the world is not only a national action, but also a conscious behavior of everyone who yearns for peace and hates killing.

What is used to convey ideas and gather strength in folk public sacrifice activities? This reminds us of Purple Grass.

1939, a Japanese soldier who invaded China collected the seeds of a purple floret on Nanjing Purple Mountain. In the following decades, he and his family devoted themselves to promoting the planting of this flower to oppose the war and call for peace, and named it "Zijin Grass", which has since been called "Flower of Peace". In fact, purple clover is the February orchid in China. It is cold-tolerant and drought-tolerant, and can also grow tenaciously on barren land, which contains endless grassroots strength.

The "Zijin Grass Action" came from this.

We have carefully designed and produced the Zixian badge, hoping that more and more people will wear it to participate in public sacrifice activities;

We have set up an online platform of "Purple Mourning". You can plant a purple clover online and leave a commemorative message.

We will visit the burial place of the victims with wreaths, and other mourning activities will be held one after another. ...

The love and hate we have experienced can be unforgettable without mentioning it.

The sufferings and pains suffered by our ancestors can easily become dusty memories.

Plant a purple clover and wear a medal.

We remind ourselves of that humiliating history in a simple way.

We use the tenacity of grassroots to make generations forget it.
