May 4th Movement
from The Dave Bowman Show
It began on a spring day in Beijing, May 4th, 1919. More than three thousand students from thirteen universities gathered in Tiananmen Square, not to celebrate or observe a holiday, but to protest. They were angry, frustrated, and determined. Their government had failed them, their nation had been betrayed, and they were not going to remain silent. That day would not only be remembered for a student demonstration, but as the birth of modern China.
