In this photo taken Monday, May 2, 2016, an enormous statue of Mao Zedong looms over the No. 1 Tractor Factory in Luoyang in central China's Henan province. Fifty years after Mao unleashed the decade-long Cultural Revolution to reassert his authority and revive his radical communist agenda, the spirit of modern China's founder still exerts a powerful pull. Millions of people were persecuted, publicly humiliated, beaten or killed during the upheaval, as zealous factionalism metastasized countrywide, tearing apart Chinese society at a most basic level.

In this July 5, 2016 photo, Ruby Mack, stands with 5 of her grandchildren as Englewood neighborhood residents gather for a meeting with Chicago police on the South Side of Chicago. The meeting was set up in response to two children, ages 4 and 6, being shot on the 4th of July 2016. With a spike in killings and shootings this year in Chicago, statistics show more bullets are hitting children as they do normal kid things like play with sparklers, draw on the sidewalk or hold a mother’s hand.
