... It is now 18 years since soldiers and tanks entered Tiananmen Square in Beijing. Yet every year since then, on the night of 4 June, tens of thousands of people gather in Hong Kong and, whatever the weather, light candles in memory of what happened then, and those who died as a result of it. I don’t think any other mass commemoration has lasted

Tiananmen Square was the first time I did an all day fast: it was a national 1 day fast in support of the protest, before the violence started.

Yet, we don't learn, we don't learn.
