BOXER REBELLION aka Boxer Uprising, the Boxer Insurrection & the Yihetuan Movement --- This rare & disturbing scene shows the before & after scene of the massacre of a British family in China. The rebellion against Colonialists and Christians led to an uprising between 1899 -1901 by the Society of Righteous and Harmonious Fists (Yìhéquán), known as the "Boxers" by the English because of their use of Chinese martial arts, or Chinese boxing. It is not known if these two pictures were taken by the attackers (the girl is still alive) or if they are staged British propaganda photographs.
