China's Great Leap Forward

I wrote the following essay as the final paper for the history major at Humboldt State University back in 2009. I updated it in 2015 to use as a sample to get into graduate school, but I got rejected and now hate everyone with a higher degree. I thought I would post it here in case I want to get a formal/technical writing job some time in the future. It's about the Great Leap Forward in late 1950s China and the subsequent famine, probably the greatest disaster in human history.
I'll try to do a gaming article next, but I'm thinking it will be another history article so I can escape the tedium of game development. Probably about Cheech and Chong dodging the Vietnam draft or something.
