Synopsis:
The Grodekovo Museum prepared a traveling exhibition dedicated to the 120th anniversary of Alexandra Petrovna Putintseva. She led the Amur-Goryun Red Yurt, which worked in the Nanai settlements of Nizhniye Khalby and Kondon in 1929-1932.
The Red Yurt faced important state tasks: the elimination of illiteracy, political, cultural, and sanitary education, and inclusion of the inhabitants of remote Russian outskirts in the new Soviet reality. During its work, kindergartens, clubs, a boarding school, a medical station, women's meetings, Komsomol cells, and pioneer groups were organized in the Nizhnie Khalby and Kondon settlements. With the active participation of the Red Yurt, collective farms were established in Kondon, Khalby and Boloni, one of which, "Sikau Pokto", existed in Kondon until 2020.
Among other things, Alexandra Petrovna fought against the sale of girls as wives for kalym, opposed polygamy and cruel treatment of women. She organized open show trials with sentencing of parents and husbands. The whole population and even residents of neighboring settlements came to such trials.
The meeting with Alexandra Petrovna fundamentally changed the destinies of many Nanai people: they received professions they had never dreamed of and began to transform the lives of their people themselves. Most of the Nanai intelligentsia passed through her school during the period of the Red Yurts and during her teaching career at the Institute of the Peoples of the North. During her years as head of the Red Yurt, Alexandra Petrovna kept diaries, which today are a rare documentary source - an authentic testimony to the life of the Nanai people during a difficult, transitional period in the history of the people and the country. These daily diary entries, photographs, and materials from her personal archive form the basis for the narrative of this exhibition project.
