Glou 2,430 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I know this can be a touchy subject, but I think it's important to talk about it. If we don't talk, we forget. AP Photo - Jeff Widener Here are some articles about the Tiananmen massacre that happened 25 years ago in China. Students were protesting on Tiananmen square for more democracy. They were killed by the army. A description of what happened An article which links to other articles published in 1989 by The New York Times A video and an article about how China censors the news about this anniversary. Another article by the Reporters Without Borders about the censorship Tiananmen in photographies ( /!\ Some of the pictures can be shocking) Celebrations in Hong Kong today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rapmon's Ahjussi Husband 2,299 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Comunism red as the blood of your kids; I always wonder when something like theTiananmen protest happens, how the soldiers can actually shoot against someone who could be his/her own children, I'm not able to understand for what kind of society they root for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
