The Power of Criticism, Self-Criticism

  • Summary

  • Allyn Rickett was arrested in China shortly after the 1949 revolution for espionage. He then underwent a process of criticism, self-criticism for the next four years. This amazing story of transformation is documented in his book who he wrote with his wife, Adele, who was also arrested. The book is titled, Prisoners of Liberation.

    From the MIM website:
    In 1995, MIM and 14 other organizations brought Allyn Rickett to the University of Massachusetts for the first Prison Awareness Week. He spoke on his experience in revolutionary China where the government used study, self-criticism and labor to rehabilitate its enemies. After his lecture, this interview was conducted by the Undercurrents Program on WMUA 91.1FM.
