As a multi-ethnic country, China must consider all aspects of society in the process of development. The big family of 56 ethnic groups needs each of us to have a tolerant heart, handle everything in life with our tolerant mentality and handle the relations between ethnic groups well. National unity is the premise of a country's stability and better development. The mirror of history tells us that wars and conflicts between ethnic groups caused by ethnic contradictions and ethnic discrimination give us the best advice. Friendly exchanges and mutual learning between ethnic groups have promoted the friendly development of ethnic relations to a certain extent, and friendly exchanges have become the mainstream throughout history. Facts have proved that the Chinese nation, as one of the best nations in the world, has made such great achievements in today's socialist modernization precisely because our nations can be closely integrated and we can handle the relations between nations well. This is the cohesion of patriotic forces and the joint efforts of all Chinese sons and daughters.

First of all, to handle ethnic relations well requires every member of our society to have a patriotic heart and strong support of patriotism. Our great country &; Mdash& ampmdash; Under the leadership of China's * * * Production Party, People's Republic of China (PRC) has experienced ups and downs, encountered many difficulties, experienced setbacks and failures, but they never gave in, they never gave up fighting against difficulties, and under the guidance of the banner of patriotism, they set a clear direction. All ethnic groups unite to drive out imperialism and overthrow oppression, and the people become real masters. The nation is the foundation of all our work, the most solid guarantee of our victory and the premise of the birth of new China.

However, with the founding of New China, China's unified multi-ethnic country has undergone qualitative changes, and the implementation of regional ethnic autonomy has become a key step in dealing with ethnic relations in China. Under the unified leadership, all ethnic groups have maintained their own characteristics, customs and habits, organized powerful forces to strengthen themselves, truly eliminated ethnic discrimination, and achieved national equality and great unity among all ethnic groups. In the socialist family, in the struggle to defend and build the motherland, the closeness of exchanges and cooperation between ethnic groups is incomparable at any time in the past. It is this great unity, alliance and communication of all ethnic groups that has effectively promoted the rapid economic and cultural development of all ethnic groups and greatly improved China's comprehensive national strength. National unity and national unity are in the fundamental interests of the people of all ethnic groups in China. Although before the founding of New China, this alliance could not be truly equal on the whole, and the unification was only relative, it still maintained a certain feudal separatist state. However, after all, it has brought an environment for peaceful construction to the people, reduced the chances for some ethnic rulers to provoke ethnic vendettas for power and interests, eliminated many artificial obstacles during the separatist period, created conditions for people of all ethnic groups to carry out economic and cultural exchanges smoothly, and was conducive to promoting national unity and the development of productive forces and enhancing their ability to resist foreign aggression. Therefore, the patriotism of the people of China is bound to be manifested in the struggle to safeguard unity and oppose separatism.

The development of China at this stage can not be separated from the support of the people, but in such a country, we must always keep a high degree of vigilance. Some separatist forces are still secretly engaged in activities that undermine people's unity. They tried to dismember our socialist country and strongly advocated national independence and separation from the big family of the socialist motherland. Xinjiang, as a multi-ethnic area, properly handling ethnic relations has become a key factor for Xinjiang's better and harmonious development. There are still some ethnic separatists in Xinjiang, and the "three forces" are a major problem for us to maintain ethnic unity in Xinjiang. They advocate anti-secession ideas among some students, hoping that college students with advanced ideas can be used by them. I think as college students in today's era, we should clearly realize the great significance of national unity. We should resolutely fight against all extremists who undermine national unity and create ethnic contradictions with advanced ideas, and educate those who are narrow-minded with our advanced ideas to realize that national unity is a necessary prerequisite for the development of the Chinese nation. Ethnic division can only bring bloodshed and sacrifice, bring people disaster, economic recession and historical retrogression. Therefore, each of us should proceed from the overall situation of the Chinese nation, from the fundamental interests of the people of all ethnic groups in the country, and from the tradition of maintaining multi-ethnic unity in China, consciously safeguard national unity, oppose ethnic division, resolutely fight against words and deeds that undermine the reunification of the motherland, and always keep a clear head and understand what should be done, what should not be done, and what should be stopped hard, because a sense of responsibility and patriotism is deeply buried in our hearts.

Ethnic groups run through the whole era. Practice has proved that national unity has brought us social development, economic development, scientific and technological progress and the improvement of people's living standards. People of all ethnic groups can engage in socialist modernization with peace of mind, and national unity is also conducive to mutual learning, mutual support and common development of all ethnic groups.

Today, with the construction of a harmonious society, we are also striving to do a good job in national unity, properly handle ethnic relations, and build the motherland better with our efforts. In Xinjiang, a place where ethnic groups gather, we should stick to our own ideas, dare to fight against all anti-secession forces, speed up the economic development in the western region and build a harmonious Xinjiang.

The second part: Personal experience of national unity education.

Xinjiang is located in the northwest border of the motherland, with an area of 6.5438+0.66 million square kilometers, accounting for one-sixth of the total land area of China.

Since the founding of New China, the Party and the state have formulated and implemented a series of ethnic and religious policies in line with the national conditions from the reality of multi-ethnic groups in Xinjiang, and implemented a system of regional ethnic autonomy in areas where ethnic minorities live in compact communities, thus ensuring the right of people of all ethnic groups to be truly masters of their own affairs. At present, there are 5 ethnic autonomous prefectures, 6 ethnic autonomous counties and 42 ethnic townships in the whole region.
