During his relatively brief but successful career in the sport he played for both the Washington Senators and the New York Yankees. What very few baseball fans don’t know however is that to this very day he is the only major league player to have been born in China. His parents came to Tianjin in the late 1900s as missionaries. After pursuing a baseball career back in the United States, Kingman decided to follow in his family’s footsteps and became a missionary in various parts of Asia. Huo Yuanjia, martial artist and freedom fighter The late Mr. Huo was born in 1868, a time in which China was being consistently invaded by foreign colonial powers. The Tianjin-born legend is well known across the land for fighting back against the occupying powers. He was an exceptionally gifted martial artist who practiced mizongyi. In order to promote his cause, Huo established the Shanghai-based Chin Woo Athletic Association. Even to this day his achievements, including his infamous defeat over Irish boxing champion Hercules O’Brien, inspire new generations of self- Famous Tianjiners defence practitioners in China. Adeline Yen Mah, prolific author and physician This Chinese-American writer is best known for her gripping autobiography entitled Chinese Cinderella, Throughout the Ages in which she tells the story of her extreme physical and emotional abuse as a young lady growing up in a turmoil-ridden Middle Kingdom. Her work is considered to be a classic by many readers all around the globe. Mah’s life began in Tianjin, the setting for much of the early part of her story.

  • The Birth of Chinese Nationalism
    The Birth of Chinese Nationalism By Salvatore Babones May 3, 2019 In China, May 4 is Youth Day, a holiday established by the Communist Party in 1949 and celebrated on and off ever since. On this day in 1989, more than 100,000 students demonstrated in Beijing’s Tiananmen Square, a key milestone on road to the tragic events of June 4, when Chinese troops opened fire on the civilians amassed there. This year, China’s president and Communist Party leader, Xi Jinping, has called on students to commemorate a very special Youth Day. But it’s not the 30th anniversary of 1989’s pro- democracy protests that he has in mind. Rather, it is the 100th anniversary of May 4, 1919, that he wants to commemorate. On that day a century ago, another group of students rallied in Tiananmen Square. In May 1919, the leaders of World War I’s victorious allies were meeting in Paris to determine the shape of the postwar world. Most Westerners know that the resulting Treaty of Versailles profoundly influenced subsequent European history through the foundation of the League of Nations, the rise of Adolf Hitler, and eventually World War II. Some may even know how the peace treaty, the Balfour Declaration, and the Sykes-Picot Agreement created the modern Middle East. But Westerners are less aware that the Treaty of Versailles also helped set in motion the series of events that led to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the Chinese Civil War, and today’s tensions between the United States and China over freedom of navigation in the South China Sea.

  • May in the Far East Asian Culture Club 5/13/2021 China
    May in the Far East Asian Culture Club 5/13/2021 China May 1 Labor Day 劳动节 Láodòng jié Labor Day China has several public holidays of national character. These holidays include 1 May - Labor Day. Until 2008, this holiday was celebrated for seven days, however later the Chinese government decided to reduce the number of off-days to three in favor of other traditional Chinese holidays. The history of International Workers' Day in China started in 1919, when the intelligentsia initiated insurgencies in Shanghai. Later, in 1920, Beijing and Shanghai held the first-ever demonstration in honor of all workers. Officially, this holiday was established and approved by the Chinese government in 1949. During the “cultural revolution” May Day in China was considered, almost the most important holiday in the country. Amplitudinous rallies and demonstrations across China were organized to celebrate this Day. The holiday was more of a political character. However, at the end of XX century, the situation changed dramatically. Today Labor Day in China is a sort of a cheerful family holiday. During these three days of holidays, the Chinese go to the country, meet friends, and attend solemn events. Many people visit theaters and exhibitions. The streets of the Chinese cities hold demonstrations and performances. May Day holidays is the best time to visit China, because at this period of year, the government gives permission for discounts. Not only can you visit the main attractions of the country at discounted prices, but also to go shopping. May 4 Youth Day In the People's Republic of China, Youth Day celebrated on May 4.
