The Long March lives on in Beijing's art classrooms

A simple fish hook carries a powerful story of sacrifice and perseverance from the Long March. Today, at Beijing Bayi School,ninth graders are revisiting The Golden Fish Hook through art — using brushes, tablets and AI to turn a chapter of history into their own visual stories. From appreciating classic artworks to creating their own, the spirit of the Long March is no longer simply a memory in a textbook. It is finding new expression through the imagination and creativity of a new generation.
