Today, 37 years ago, was the Tiananmen Square massacre in Beijing.

Remember these events.
Remember these people who fought for freedom and democracy.
This is important 💛☂️

"On the 30th anniversary of the protests in 2019, the well-known Chinese artist Ai Weiwei wrote that 'autocratic and totalitarian regimes fear facts because they have built their power on unjust foundations' and he also wrote that memory is important: 'without it there is no such thing as a civilised society or nation' because 'our past is all we have.'"

1989 Tiananmen Square protests and massacre - Wikipedia

Ett automatgevär går til anfall mot en penna
En handgranat spränger en berättelse i småbitar
De skjutna orden flyger som vassvippor i luften
I floden flyter blodiga meningar
Ett krig utan motstånd blir till en jakt
Jag är en hare som fastnade i den stora rävsaxen
Genom järngallret syns en ömklig framtand
Å, den andra har de redan slagit ut

Gui Minhai
