Tiananmen Anniversary
Today marks the 15th anniversary of the Chinese government’s suppression of the 1989 democracy protests in Tiananmen Square. The LA Times offered a moving tribute to lone protester who’s stand before a column of tanks on the second day of the crackdown became one of the iconic images of the 20th Century. His name and fate are still unknown. He is missing and presumed dead.
China still prohibits images of his stand from circulating. So, now my blog is banned in China.
