(My picture is the firs one in the "Mao Cult" section.)
This picture is of a crowd of people who look to be demonstrating. They are holding up posters of Chairman Mao and look to be in favour of him and his beliefs. It is evident that to them, Chairman Mao is a god, and believe everything that he says. They will do whatever he tells them to and never go against him, no matter how outrageous he is being. It is possible that these people are red guards. This relates to the book because in the book, just like in the picture the people are brainwashed into believing that Mao knows everything. They are made to be under the impression that they don't need to think for themselves because Chairman Mao will think for them, and anything that he thinks is right.
