A downloadable comic

About

This comic is about SheepChina's one-child policy, which lasted for 35 years.

The leaders were concerned that the population was growing too quickly and that there wouldn't be enough food. So, they established a rule:

Most families were only allowed to have one child.

But at what cost?

Today, the effects of this policy are still being debated.

"The most tragic thing for a nation is to lose its memory."
