So before our kids got out of kindergarten for the summer, there was 10 days of military "activities" and displays of machine guns and mortars at the door; now the principal has welcomed them back with a strip pole dance on the flagpole bearing the PRC flag. She's gone nuts.pic.twitter.com/BJr4UI6Oq3

reproducing traditions of social control eg military, gender etc. is certainly conservative! The fact that kids are being introduced to heavy weapons in an edicational environment, and women in positions of authority are dressing/moving in the language of prostitution: yup.

To update: We met with a representative of the company that owns this school and several other schools. An understatement to say they've been getting a lot of complaints today. She told us that the principal is being removed and will be replaced, but that it will take two weeks.

Another update before I run out of power. The principal has been fired. The Bao'an education authorities acted quite quickly.

You wouldn't know her name? She deserves a thorough interview.
