how did Li Dazhao effect Mao?

I read that Li Dazhao was killed in Beijing, not Guangdong - can anyone confirm or deny?

How in the world did he reject the Bolshevik government in the Soviet Union? Vandalism? Radchenk (talk) 09:01, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

“Professor Li Tao-haso” is clearly Li Dazhao, from the politics, time and place to the “large moustache” cited in this source. His study sessions – reading the Marx’s “Communist Manifesto”, or Rousseau’s “Social Contract” to students – were occasionally raided by the police, but the officers apparently were too ignorant to understand what they were hearing and seeing. Common rickshaw pullers were brought in to hear about concepts such as the definition of the nation-state. Students also studied Esperanto, and “At the initiative of Li Tao-hsao a Union of Socialist Youth was created,” in the spring of 1921. < ref>Tretiakov, S., A Chinese Testament: The Autobiography of Tan Shih-hua, Simon and Schuster (New York: 1934), Chapter 13.< /ref>
