Poet Huang Xiang, was among the very first to appeal for democracy in China.

It is well known that in 1989, a student led democratic movement in China was violently crushed by the communist government.

Actually in 1978 for several months the first popular request for democracy in China occurred. During this period, several pioneers of democracy for China started to express their opinions using big character posters on a wall in Beijing, known as the Xi-Dan Democracy Wall.

  • Democracy isn't all that it's cracked up to be! Our form of slavery in the West is just a little bit more sophisticated than that of China.

    Please don't ask for liberty! Liberties can be granted or taken away, Freedom is a Natural Course of Life and cannot be granted or taken, it just is.

  • ah!
