The following is a re-telling of the making of that statue, originally published in the book Children of Dragon, by a sculptor named Cao Xinyuan: Nothing excites a sculptor as much as seeing a work of her own creation take shape. But although I was watching the creation of a sculpture that I had had no part in making, I nevertheless felt the same excitement. It was the "Goddess of Democracy" statue that stood for five days in Tiananmen Square. Until last year I was a graduate student at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing, where the sculpture was made. I was living there when these events took place. 点击图像去Amazon购买 Students and faculty of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, which is located only a short distance from Tiananmen Square, had from the beginning been actively involved in the demonstrations.

  • Zhou Fengsuo Looks Back at Humanitarian China's Journey in 2019 in an Interview (Full Transcript)
    Video link: https://youtu.be/tmaJzU0Fyxw Zhou Fengsuo looks back at Humanitarian China's journey in 2019 in an interview (full transcript) Host: This is the Chen Pokong Fengyun Show and I am special correspondent Wu Yun. Today, we’ve invited Mr Zhou Fengsuo, former student leader during the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989 and president of Humanitarian China. Welcome, Mr Zhou. We would like you to tell us about Humanitarian China’s work during 2019 and its future plans . Zhou Fengsuo: Thank you. It’s a privilege for me to have the opportunity to talk about our work during the past year and our future plans. During the past year, human rights in China continued to deteriorate, which brought us huge challenges. The need is great. The most important work Humanitarian China does is to assist prisoners of conscience in China; we provide humanitarian relief to over 100 people annually. This group now consists of a wide range of people, including groups we have been supporting such as human rights lawyers, former Democracy Party members and Tiananmen Square Massacre victims, and some new groups that have emerged this year, for instance, the Hong Kong protesters and those arrested over rights issues that had previously been regarded as relatively minor in China, for instance, labor rights, woman rights and equality. The CCP is becoming increasingly paranoid and treating everyone as an enemy, which results in many different groups being targeted. We do our best to provide humanitarian relief. Our most crucial task is to understand their situation and needs, and to promote international awareness of human rights violations.

  • The 1989 Tiananmen Square Protests in Chinese Fiction and Film
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Making the Censored Public: The 1989 Tiananmen Square Protests in Chinese Fiction and Film A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Comparative Literature by Thomas Chen Chen 2016 © Copyright by Thomas Chen Chen 2016 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Making the Censored Public: The 1989 Tiananmen Square Protests in Chinese Fiction and Film by Thomas Chen Chen Doctor of Philosophy in Comparative Literature University of California, Los Angeles, 2016 Professor Kirstie M. McClure, Co-Chair Professor Robert Yee-Sin Chi, Co-Chair Initiated by Beijing college students, the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests—"Tiananmen"— shook all of China with their calls for democratic and social reforms. They were violently repressed by the Chinese state on June 4, 1989. Since then, their memory has been subject within the country to two kinds of censorship. First, a government campaign promulgating the official narrative of Tiananmen, while simultaneously forbidding all others, lasted into 1991. What followed was the surcease of Tiananmen propaganda and an expansion of silencing to nearly all mentions that has persisted to this day. My dissertation examines fiction and film that evoke Tiananmen from within mainland China and Hong Kong. It focuses on materials that are particularly open to a self-reflexive reading, such as literature in which the protagonists are writers and films shot without authorization that in their editing indicate the precarious ii circumstances of their making. These works act out the contestation between the state censorship of Tiananmen-related discourse on the one hand and its alternative imagination on the other, thereby opening up a discursive space, however fragile, for a Chinese audience to reconfigure a historical memory whose physical space is off limits.

Abstract: The present finding aid represents the fruits of a multiyear collaborative effort, undertaken at the initiative of then UCLA Chancellor Charles Young, to collect, collate, classify, and annotate available materials relating to the China Democracy Movement and tiananmen crisis of 1989. These materials---including, inter alia, thousands of documents, transcribed radio broadcasts, local newspaper and journal articles, wall posters, electronic communications, and assorted ephemeral sources, some in Chinese and some in English---provide a wealth of information for scholars, present and future, who wish to gain a better understanding of the complex, swirling forces that surrounded the extraordinary "Beijing Spring" of 1989 and its tragic denouement. The scholarly community is indebted to those who have collected and arranged this archive of materials about the China Democracy Movement and Tiananmen Incident Archives.

  • Atheist Political Activists Turned Protestants: Religious Conversion Within China’S Dissident Community
    Atheist Political Activists Turned Protestants: Religious Conversion within China’s Dissident Community by Teresa Wright Professor and Chair Department of Political Science California State University, Long Beach Long Beach, CA 90840 [email protected] and Teresa Zimmerman-Liu M.A. Candidate Department of Asian/Asian-American Studies California State University, Long Beach Long Beach, CA 90840 [email protected] Prepared for delivery at the 2012 Annual Meeting of the International Studies Association San Diego, April 1-4, 2012 *Please do not cite or quote without the authors’ permission Atheist Political Activists Turned Protestants: Religious Conversion within China’s Dissident Community Two related questions most compel China scholars and observers today: (i) why, despite dramatic economic liberalization and growth, has China not democratized? and (ii) will China democratize in the future? While some existing studies are more optimistic than others, most focus on the adaptability of the ruling Chinese Communist Party (CCP) as the key to its longevity.1 What is missing from this literature is a detailed scholarly examination of what has happened to the pro-democracy activists who led the political protests that arose in China in the 1980s, which culminated in the massive demonstrations of 1989. One particularly interesting development is that a large number of these political activists have, in the post-1989 period, become Protestant Christians. Moreover, this development has coincided with a larger explosion of Christianity in the post-Mao era. There are an estimated 50 to 100 million Protestants in China today—a sizeable portion of the population, and indeed one that rivals the (roughly 80 million) membership of the CCP.2 The expansion of Christianity in contemporary China has spurred a small but quickly growing body of scholarly studies.
