In 1989, protests by students in Tiananmen Square changed the course of history � resulting in a massacre the Chinese government still denies today. Watch CNN's coverage from on the ground that year. After the Chinese government pulled the plug on the broadcast, CNN reported by telephone and used video travelers snuck out of the country. #CNN #News
The most powerful nation in the world right now, the most hardworking and loyal people you will ever meet. the great Chinese republic

@damonthomas2975 Says:
Anyone hear what they screaming and chanting? "Give me freedom or give me death" calling the soldiers"fascists". We Americans act like wey're special and somehow care more about freedom than citizens of any other country but it's simply not true. All humans want the values this country was built on in theory. We look at other countries and say how can they live in a place controlled by government, I would do something about it if I was there. But the truth is you live in a country like that too, America is at war with it's own people (drug war) and most of society just accepts that it's "the right thing to do." Not so hard for people in power to convince you it's okay to strip you and your fellow citizens of their rights, liberties, and freedoms huh? How many politicians can you think of that wanted to end the war on drugs and end the suffering at the hands of the government? I can only think of two...both of which were independents and only ran with a party in presidential elections because they wouldn't stand a chance otherwise. Those two people are Ron Paul and Bernie Sanders. They don't care about power and control, they only care about empowering citizens with their rights and freedoms. They're the only two people I've ever seen worth voting for.

keep Tienanmen Square in your mind whenever you hear about any protest anywhere and remember there are always two sides to the story.
@fenxian Says:
CNN liers! They use some real burning scene, distorting with their own narrative. I'm wondering why CCP ofiicial come in interrupting them transmitting speak Cantonese "末问题‘’ in Beijing, not Mandarin?
Communism should be paired with democracy to minimize the elite being out of control
@gigie555 Says:
This was likely a failed color revolution sponsored by Western NGO's (aka CIA) just like the Maidan was in Ukraine in 2014. We know the US sponsored that "revolution" from the secretly recorded phone call of the State Department's Victoria Nuland and US Ambassador Geoffrey Pyatt, as they were selecting leaders to lead the post coup government. This never gets mentioned by the western propaganda media.
But back to Tiananmen, fortunately Deng saw in time the danger to China. He acted decisively to prevent a western backed coup d'etat as in Ukraine 36 years later. It's doubtful there were thousands killed, more like a few scores of students. The film does show a few people were shot. But it also shows some of these students burning buses and throwing rocks. And if the PLA were ordered to kill people, the tank would have certainly rolled over "The Tankman" without a second thought.
This documentary is pure US propaganda.
@maxxxine_minx Says:
it really makes me sad to think about this happened, i'm not chinese, but my parents are roughly the same age as the protesters were in 1989, it makes me really sad to think about those who were killed and their parents, friends and loved ones. it's horrible when a government attacks their own people...

Something that would be insane. Is somebody managed to hijack Chinese new station and played this video most likely will never happen but just imagine
And still there are ignorant Chinese Americans supporting and being apologetic towards the CCP’s actions.
@Susieee22 Says:
As a local Chinese from the southern part, I do remember that my History teacher from high school did mentioned this PROTEST to us. But he mentioned it lightly like”tanks and army showed up, and when the sun rise, everything becomes normal like nothing happened, no blood on the ground”something like that. I don’t remember more because I was taking a nap.. and We were too naive to understand this by that time and never had chance to search for any information about it until I got the vpn. But I think it’s truth that students group is most likely to be used… We never knew the truth behind it, but…killing people is the most incorrect thing the government did…😢

@user-ve9mn8jb1h Says:
This should be remembered for what it really was: a failed attempt of foreign services trying to overthrow the political power in China, under the guise and masquerade of a "student's protest", like they did in many countries in the Eastern Bloc during those years. Though it almost worked, China now stands stronger than ever.
