There is concern that as witnesses age and die, the opportunity to research the event thoroughly within China may be lost.[19] en.wikipedia.org Some of the most extreme violence took place in the southern province of Guangxi, where a Chinese journalist found a "disturbing picture of official compliance in the systematic killing and cannibalization of individuals in the name of political revolution and 'class struggle'."[28] Senior party historians acknowledge, "In a few places, it even happened that 'counterrevolutionaries' were beaten to death and in the most beastly fashion had their flesh and liver consumed [by their killers]."[29] Not even the minor children of "enemies of the people" were spared, as more than a few were tortured and bludgeoned to death, dismembered and some of their organs - hearts, livers, and genitals - eaten during "human flesh banquets". [30] As a result of this frenzied killing and "obligatory cannibalism", an estimated 100,000 people were killed in Guangxi alone. [30] en.wikipedia.org
