Tiananmen Square

19 years ago The Chinese Goverment crushed a student attempt to demonstrate for freedoms you & I take for granted.
This took place in Tiananmen Square, remember the name when you watch the Olympics.
This is a picture of the bravest man on the planet.



Listening to:

Carla Scaletti
Peter Schaeffer

Good post David. Pause and cause for thought. My Grandmother was Russian. She left her home and country during the Communist revolution. She was a very poor peasant, but, like many other white Russians, valued her freedom under the Tsar, more than the 'freedom from oppression'.
