Summary/Abstract: Ladies and gentlemen; dear, distinguished guests, Good Morning. I would like to thank The Institute for the Study of Totalitarian Regimes for holding this important conference, and in particular I would like to thank the organizers for bringing together such an incredible group of people. It is an immense honor to stand before you this morning in the hall of the Czech Senate to speak to you on this subject, about which we are all too familiar: crimes against humanity committed by Communist regimes. Despite the decades of tyranny and oppression which have accompanied Communist regimes the world over, the healing process has yet to begin for millions of victims of Communism. Today, I would like to shed some light on the Chinese Communist Party, and how the brutal practices of this regime have forever altered not only my life, but the lives of hundreds of millions of Chinese since 1949. I also hope to remind you that for the Chinese, the brutality of Communism is anything but history.
