DESCRIPTION:In October 1911 after at least ten attempted popular uprisings, the Chinese 
 people, led by Dr. Sun Yat-sen, succeeded in overthrowing the Qing Dynasty. 
  The Revolution brought to power a democratically-minded government, but 
 resistance from the warlords and the right-wing of the ruling Kuomintang 
 Party subverted Dr. Sun Yat-sen's Three Principles of the People.  The 
 outcome of the ensuing civil war was the second Revolution of 1949.  Two 
 distinguished speakers will examine the conditions that led to the 
 Revolution of 1911, and how the century of struggle and nation-building 
 that followed created the modern China of today.\n\n\n“Why Revolution in 
 China in 1911?”\nSun Suiying\nGranddaughter of Dr. Sun Yat-sen (first 
 President of China)\n\n“The Chinese Revolution of 1911 and modern 
 China”\nDavid Ewing\nCo-chair of the U.S.-China People’s Friendship 
 Association (San Francisco Chapter)\n\nFree and open to the public\n\nFor
