7.4 SAQ Lenin Letter 8/11/1918

Use the passage to answer all parts of the question that follows:

Comrades! The revolt by the five kulaks [a derogatory term referring to the class of prosperous peasants] volosts [ a territorial/administrative unit consisting of a few villages & surrounding land] must be suppressed without mercy. The interest of the entire revolution demands this because we have now before us our final decisive battle with the kulaks. We need to set an example.

  1. You need to hang – hang without fail, and do it so that the public sees – at least 100 notorious kulaks, the rich, and the bloodsuckers.
  2. Publish their names.
  3. Take away all of their grain.
  4. Execute the hostages – in accordance with yesterday’s telegram.

This needs to be accomplished in such a way that people for hundreds of miles around will see, tremble, know, and scream out: let’s choke and strangle those blood-sucking kulaks.

Telegraph us acknowledging receipt and execution of this.”

Lenin
