看一个青年是不是革命的,拿什么做标准呢?拿什么去辨别他呢?只有一个标准,这就是看他愿意不愿意、并且实行不实行和广大的工农群众结合在一块。

This poster in red background features a smiling portrait of Chairman Mao Zedong in the top left. The main part of the poster is a quote from Mao in white Chinese characters, followed by his signature: "看一个青年是不是革命的,拿什么做标准呢?拿什么去辨别他呢?只有一个标准,这就是看他愿意不愿意、并且实行不实行和广大的工农群众结合在一块。" (How do we tell if a youth is a revolutionary? What is the criterion? How do we differentiate them? There is only one criterion, and it is to see whether or not he is willing to integrate himself with the broad masses of workers and peasants and does so in practice.) Below Mao's portrait, a crowd of smiling, energetic youths holds up their "Little Red Books" in support. The lower right portion of the poster depicts a landscape that blends rural and industrial elements. In the foreground are plowed fields, while behind them are oil derricks and factory structures set against mountains. Within this landscape are two small signs with more slogans: the one on the left reads, "要斗私, 批修" (Fight selfishness, criticize revisionism), and the one on the right reads, "千万不要忘记阶级斗争" (Never forget class struggle).
