William Edward Burghardt "W. E. B." Du Bois ( ; February 23, 1868 – August 27, 1963) was an American sociologist, historian, civil rights activist, Pan-Africanist, author, writer and editor.
 Born in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, Du Bois grew up in a relatively tolerant and integrated community.
 After completing graduate work at the University of Berlin and Harvard, where he was the first African American to earn a doctorate, he became a professor of history, sociology and economics at Atlanta University.
 Du Bois was one of the co-founders of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) in 1909.
The W.E.B. Du Bois Boyhood Homesite (or W.E.B. Du Bois Homesite) is a National Historic Landmark in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, commemorating an important location in the life of African American intellectual and civil rights activist W.E.B. Du Bois (1868–1963).
 The site contains foundational remnants of the home of Du Bois' grandfather, where Du Bois lived for the first five years of his life.
 Du Bois was given the house in 1928, and planned to renovate it, but was unable to do so.
 He sold it in 1954 and the house was torn down later that decade.
 The site is located on South Egremont Road (state routes 23 and 41), west of the junction with Route 71.
The League of the Left-Wing Writers (), commonly abbreviated as the Zuolian or Left League, was an organization of writers formed in Shanghai, China, on 2 March 1930, at the instigation of the Chinese Communist Party and the influence of the celebrated author Lu Xun.
 Other prominent members included Ding Ling, Hu Feng, and Mei Zhi.
 The purpose of the League was to promote socialist realism in support of the Communist Revolution, and it eventually became very influential in Chinese cultural circles.
 Lu Xun delivered the opening address to the organizational meeting, but he became disillusioned when it quickly became clear that he would have little influence.
 Other members included leaders of the Sun Society and the Creation Society, and Zhou Yang, who became Mao Zedong's favorite literary figure and after 1949 zealously enforced political orthodoxy.
 The League articulated theories on the political role of literature that foreshadowed Mao's influential Yan'an Talks on Literature and Art, and engaged in running debates with the "art for art's sake" Crescent Moon Society.

Lu Xun (183–245), courtesy name Boyan, also sometimes referred to as Lu Yi, was a military general and statesman of the state of Eastern Wu during the Three Kingdoms period.
 He started his career as an official under the warlord Sun Quan in the 200s CE during the late Eastern Han dynasty and steadily rising through the ranks.
 In 219, he assisted Sun Quan's general Lü Meng in an invasion of Jing Province, which led to the defeat and death of Liu Bei's general Guan Yu.
 In 222, he served as the field commander of the Wu army in the Battle of Xiaoting against Liu Bei's forces and scored a decisive victory over the enemy.
 Lu Xun reached the pinnacle of his career after this battle as Sun Quan regarded him more highly, promoted him to higher positions and bestowed upon him unprecedented honours.
 Throughout the middle and the later parts of his career, Lu Xun oversaw and managed both civil and military affairs in Wu while participating in some battles against Wu's rival state, Wei, from time to time.
 In his final years, Lu Xun was drawn into a succession struggle between Sun Quan's sons and fell out of Sun Quan's favour as a consequence.
 He managed to retain his appointment as Imperial Chancellor – an office he assumed in 244 – but died a year later in frustration.
 Lu Xun's role in the Wu government was likened to that of a "custos morum" as he believed firmly in and upheld Confucian principles and practices.
 On the one hand, he provided constant and timely advice to Sun Quan to exercise benevolence and consider the welfare of the people.
 On the other hand, he vehemently objected to Sun Quan's idea of replacing his legitimate heir apparent in favour of a younger son.
