The Tiananmen Square Massacre

In the spring of 1989, thousands of people filled the heart of Beijing demanding reform, freedom, and an end to corruption. For weeks, the world watched as hope seemed to rise in Tiananmen Square that maybe, China would see major political reforms. Then, in a single night, tanks rolled in, gunfire echoed through the streets, and one of the most infamous crackdowns in modern history unfolded. Decades later, the event remains censored, disputed, and deeply consequential. Learn more about the Tiananmen Square Massacre, and how it changed China and the world, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
