Tiananmen Square 1989 Explained: Protests, Crackdown & Tank Man

Spring 1989, Beijing. Students and citizens gathered after Hu Yaobang’s death to demand reform. Weeks of marches, a hunger strike, and nationwide solidarity ended when martial law troops moved in on June 3–4. Soldiers fired while clearing routes to Tiananmen Square; casualties numbered in the hundreds, possibly more. On June 5, an unknown man—“Tank Man”—briefly halted a column of tanks, an image seen worldwide. In the aftermath, leaders were purged, thousands were arrested, and discussion of “June Fourth” remains heavily censored in China. This video traces the background, the timeline from April to June, the crackdown, Tank Man’s significance, and the legacy that still shapes China and global perceptions.
