Gao Xiuqing | 高秀清, undated
- Scope and content:
-
Gao Xiuqing (b. 1934) is a resident of Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province. In this interview, Gao recalls the life during the Great Famine and her experience of working in Shijiazhuang in 1960. When Gao was still in her hometown, her family's condition was quite good so they did not experience hunger. Her family even helped one poor family in her village. Because Gao's husband was working in Shijiazhuang, Gao then moved to live in the city with him. In 1960, she was working at the canteen of her work unit. Sometimes when someone starving badly came to her and begged for food, she would gave them some of the leftover from the canteen.
