Features: What I hope to present in this book is a "living" history of people. What we have found are not traditional "heroes" but ordinary people—survivors, small figures in the grand history, the "silent majority." Their voices will not be thunderous, and they have long been overlooked. These ordinary voices, genuine details, and heartfelt whispers come from the souls of those who were once bullied but knew how to resist, who had courage but were later ignored.
