The Tiananmen Square protests of 1989, widely known as the Tiananmen Square Massacre, in China referred to as the June Fourth Incident to avoid confusion with the two other Tiananmen Square protests and as an act of official censorship, were a series of demonstrations led by labor activists, students, and intellectuals in the People's Republic of China (PRC) between April 15 and June 4, 1989. While the protests lacked a unified cause or leadership, participants were generally against the authoritarianism and economic policies of the ruling Chinese Communist Party and voiced calls for democratic reform within the structure of the government. The demonstrations centered on Tiananmen Square in Beijing, but large-scale protests also occurred in cities throughout China, including Shanghai, which stayed peaceful throughout the protests. In Beijing, the resulting military crackdown on the protesters by the PRC government left many civilians dead or injured. The reported tolls ranged from 200--300 (PRC government figures), to 400--800 (The New York Times), and to 2,000--3,000 (Chinese student associations and Chinese Red Cross).

  • i do not understand this......from soldiers. Brothers are shooting at their own brothers, friends, fathers and mothers........where is the love? what do you accomplish by war? more hatred, more greed, more death.....

  • It is outrageous to see that the younger generations didn't in any way learned the value of sacrifices from the LONG MARCH. They were irresponsible & not aware that their actions might destroy the very foundation of what China now. I pity those who were killed but this is nothing compared to the interest of the Chinese people.

  • @MaestroGURL17 it was

  • nice sound effect.

  • @Joybuzzard you seem to be young and inexperienced. This was Mao's china during this attack. The student revolution actually backfired, because they began killing any intellectuals that were considered 'dangerous'. aka doctors, teachers, etc. Mao initially supported their cause, then backpeddled and ordered their deaths.
