I remember being in the first grade and hearing the phrase "Red China." I translated this as to mean that everything in China was red, the sky, the grass, the people. I felt bad for the kids there because they didn't get to see the pretty colors I got to see. It wasn't until I was in college that I found out what "Red China" really was.
