3集广播剧《历史的守望者》 《历史的守望者》是根据"九·一八"事变后的第二年,一九三二年九月十六日,日本帝国主义用惨绝人寰的罪恶手段,残杀平顶山平民百姓三千多人,制造了震惊中外的"平顶山惨案",这一历史史实创作录制的。 该剧以真实的笔触,塑造了以"殉难同胞遗址纪念馆"的馆长钟达为代表的一批善良、正直、热爱和平的典型人物形象。同时,也鞭挞和揭露了以川上为代表的日本帝国主义在侵华战争中所犯下的滔天罪行。再现了当年平顶山三千多手无寸铁的百姓在日军的多挺机关***扫射下一片片倒下的悲惨情景。 七十年后的今天,热爱和平的日本军人后代"美代子"清醒的认识到她父辈在中国留下不可饶恕的罪行,主动配合"平顶山大惨案"的幸存者马宝胜诉告日本******讨回公道,表现出中日两国人民热爱和平的伟大情节。 在东京的法庭上,钟达代表三千多名殉难同胞,义正辞严的谴责日本帝国主义给中国人民留下的灾难和痛苦,有力的反击了日军右翼势力想要抹杀这一历史事实。他说:"今天走进这个法庭的主要目的,就是要伸张正义,警醒后人,根除伤害全人类的罪恶,防范威胁全人类的战争!在此,我们要正告那些至今仍蓄意掩盖和否定历史真相的人,尊重历史,将被历史所尊重,否定历史将被历史否定,我们这些历史的守望者坚信--正义必胜。"其实,这场状告日本******的官司我们在道义上已经取得了胜利,该剧的结尾处钟达馆长面对三千多殉难同胞的累累白骨,深情的表述:"平顶山的乡亲们呐,我刚刚从日本回来,在东京的法庭上,我切实感觉到--人心反对罪恶,世间自有公道!你们……安息吧!" 本剧获第八届中宣部"五个一工程"入选作品奖。
