Watch City of Life and Death (2009) directed by Lu Chuan as well. I grew up with almost no knowledge of Japanese atrocities in China. City of Life and Death was my first visual encounter with the Nanjing Massacre and it was deeply unsettling.

International institutions were not designed to ensure universal rights. They were designed to maintain the core-periphery hierarchies of the world system. If we want universal rights we have to create new institutions through anti-imperialist and anti-racist struggle.
