English: Poster in 1978 advertising public commemorations of Mao's death in New York City and Berkeley California. The poster is a response to Deng Xiaoping coming to power and reversing policies instituted by Mao and the Gang of Four during the Cultural Revolution.
Full text reads: "MAO TSETUNG MEMORIAL MEETINGS Hold high the banner of Mao Tsetung's immortal contributions and the achivements and lessons of the Cultural Revolution! Hail the heroic efforts of the Four who fought to uphold Mao's revolutionary line and proletarian rule in China! Revisionists are revisionists and must not be supported, revolutionaries are revolutionaries and must be supported! Mao Tsetung-his name stands for revolution, for overthrowing everything reactionary. He led 800 million in shattering the humiliation of old China in 1949 and then in continuing revolution and beating back exploiters old and new who would enslave the people again. With Mao at the helm China became a beacon and bastion for those everywhere who fight for the future where labor serves the common good and there are no privileged few. Mao proclaimed that communism would ultimately triumph but warned that before then renegades could still seize power from the working class and replace revolution with counter- revolution. After Mao died this happened, with the crushing of the four main leaders who followed Mao and stood with the people in making revolution. But the legacy Mao left and the cause he fought for will live on in the struggle of swelling ranks in China and worldwide who are bound to overcome every obstacle and finally banish oppression forever.
