The Goddess of Democracy smiled on #China for exactly five days. The papier-mâché likeness of the Statue of Liberty appeared in Tiananmen Square as protests convulsed Beijing and other cities seeking to unshackle the world’s most populous country from endemic corruption. Their calls for political reform were answered in the early hours of June 4, 1989, with a bloody military crackdown that crushed the movement and toppled its symbols. The massacre killed hundreds, possibly thousands. The movement, favoring #democracy and reformist policies that caused rifts within the Chinese Communist Party, or CCP, had spread to hundreds of cities before the government resolved to disperse it with brute force. Military tanks rolled into Beijing, where soldiers opened fire with assault rifles on the unarmed demonstrators who tried to stop their advance. And yet in the West, a certainty remained that China would eventually resurrect the dream of democracy that was deferred that night. Thirty years later, many are still waiting for it to liberalize, though the CCP’s grip on power has arguably never been tighter. In this photograph, a candlelight vigil is held at #HongKong's Victoria Park on June 4. Read about how the massacre changed China forever at the link in bio. Photograph by @anthony.kwan@gettyimages
