Abstract

At the end of July 1921, thirteen Chinese supporters of Bolshevism, gathered at their first congress, proclaimed the founding of the Chinese Communist Party. They represented seven Chinese communist cells operating in Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, Wuhan, Changsha, Jinan, and Tokyo, as well as Chen Duxiu (18791940), the most authoritative leader of the Chinese communist movement who was unable to come to the congress and sent his deputy instead. At that time, there were fifty-eight persons in the ranks of the newly established party. There were only two women among them, including Miao Boying (18991929), a twenty-two-year old student of the Beijing Womens Higher Pedagogical Institute, the first woman from China to join the communist movement which she had done back in November 1920. An active propagandist of Bolshevik ideas and a talented organizer of the women's and revolutionary labor movement, she lived a short but extremely eventful life, devoting all her strength to the cause of liberating China. The coming jubilee of the CCP is an appropriate date to pay tribute to her memory.
