Nanjing Massacre: A story that must never be forgotten
There are stories throughout history that must never be forgotten. Japanese troops captured Nanjing, then China s capital, on Dec. 13, 1937 and started a 40oddday slaughter. About 300, 000 civilians and unarmed Chinese soldiers were brutally murdered, and over 20, 000 women were raped. John Magee, an American missionary, recorded the atrocities of the Japanese army with his 16mm camera the only footage documenting the massacre. CCTV interviewed John Magees grandson Chris Magee, Japanese professor Hiroshi Tanaka and opera actor Li Shi, who performs in The Diaries of John Rabe, an opera chronicling the massacre.
