This ideological and political class contains the great theme of national unity.
In the north of Xining, at the foot of Yuanshuo Mountain, the Goluo Xining National Middle School is lush and green under the blue sky and white clouds. On June 18, General Secretary Xi Jinping, who was inspecting Xining City, Qinghai Province, came here and observed an ideological and political class. The General Secretary has always attached great importance to ideological and political classes - this is a key course for implementing the fundamental task of cultivating morality and educating people, and an important guarantee for cultivating socialist builders and successors.
How can we teach ideological and political courses well? For a long time, the General Secretary has been giving guidance in his thinking: "When teaching ideological and political courses, we cannot just read documents, which is lifeless and dry." "We must be good at using facts, cases, and materials at home and abroad to answer students' questions through comparison."
This ideological and political class at the Xining National Middle School in Golog cleverly solved the problem by focusing on the changes in life that can be known and felt. In this class, the clever students drew the new changes in their hometown, and each of their paintings told the children's inner thoughts - their hometown Golog is getting better and better.
The changes in my hometown depend on development. "Ethnic regions should implement the awareness of building a strong community of the Chinese nation in the entire process and all aspects of development. They should closely follow the people's livelihood to promote economic and social development, improve the social security system, ensure the bottom line of people's livelihood, and focus on solving the urgent problems that the people are looking forward to." In April this year, the General Secretary made clear requirements at the symposium on promoting the development of the western region in the new era.
The development of ethnic regions contains the power of national unity and reveals the truth that "the Han people cannot do without ethnic minorities, ethnic minorities cannot do without the Han people, and ethnic minorities cannot do without each other." This ethnic middle school is a pragmatic move to solve urgent problems and a symbol of national unity. Golog Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture has a high altitude, bad climate, and a harsh environment. It is short of teachers and has a low level of school management. In order to meet the people's demand for high-quality educational resources, the local government built this school in Xining with the help of Shanghai's counterpart support.
East-West cooperation, linkage between the three regions, changes in development are palpable, and national unity permeates it. The General Secretary pointed out: "Ideological and political courses should not only be taught in the classroom, but also in social life." The process of this school from scratch is the most convincing ideological and political course on "national unity."
Watch a school built from scratch, watch an ethnic region flourish, watch the vivid practice of solidarity and mutual assistance among different ethnic groups, and "holding together like pomegranate seeds"... Over the years, the General Secretary has repeatedly visited ethnic regions, the snow-capped plateau, the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, the northern border and the southwestern border of the motherland, and his research footsteps have been confident and firm.
In recent years, all 28 ethnic minorities with small populations have been lifted out of poverty. Some of the "direct-crossing ethnic groups" that "leaped across a thousand years" after the founding of New China have achieved the second historic leap from poverty and backwardness to comprehensive well-off status. The flowers of national unity and progress are blooming.
During a visit to Xinjiang a few years ago, the General Secretary pointed out: "Through research, we must build confidence. Our ethnic theories and policies are good, effective, and unstoppable. China, with all ethnic groups united, will surely be invincible and have a bright future."
The future is bright, and we need to work hard on the road of national unity. "To realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, all ethnic groups need to work together hand in hand and shoulder to shoulder," the General Secretary stressed.
Last year, during the ninth collective study session of the 20th Central Political Bureau, the General Secretary stressed: "In building a modern socialist country in an all-round way, no ethnic group can be left behind. We must vigorously promote the common struggle of all ethnic groups and gather tremendous strength for building a strong country and national rejuvenation; we must fully realize the common prosperity and development of all ethnic groups and let people of all ethnic groups share the great glory of building a strong country and national rejuvenation."
