June 4 marks 35 years since the Chinese Government massacred countless peaceful protesters in #Tiananmen Square. Launching a campaign of silence that continues today. On 4 June 1989, the Chinese government launched a brutal crackdown on peaceful protesters in Beijing, resulting in thousands of deaths. Today, China continues to erase the memory of these events from national history.
In this episode, we explore this legacy of censorship with Zhou Fengsuo, a former student leader during the protests and now Executive Director of Human Rights in China, and Michael Castor, Asia Digital Programme Manager at ARTICLE 19.
Tune in to hear personal stories, historical insights, and a call to action for defending human rights and freedom of expression.
