Lest We Forget
June 4th, 1989 People Liberation Army’s tanks crushed pro-democracy students in Tiananmen Square, Beijing. 28 years later, this week on June 6th as in the past years, candle light vigils were held in cities such as Paris, Frankfort, Taipei, Hong Kong, Toronto, New York, San Francisco, and Los Angeles to keep the hope for democracy to prevail in China alive.
1989年6月4日，中國人民解放軍在坦克車引導下開進北京天安門廣場，血腥的鎮壓，屠殺了在場示威，反貪腐，要求民主改革的學生。28年後的今天，中共仍然拒絕爲當年犧牲的學生平反，反而變本加厲的箝制人權。就如每年六四，今年在全球各地諸如香港、法蘭克福、巴黎、台北、多倫多、紐約、舊金山和洛杉磯等都市舉行紀念六四的集會，圖為今年六四在洛杉磯中領館前的紀念六四燭光晚會，出席會眾為被屠殺的學生默哀，更為保護中國、香港和臺灣的民主人權禱告。（林秋比攝）
