Today is the twentieth anniversary of the Tiananmen Square Massacre (六四屠殺). Consider reading the Wikipedia page, and also the page on Tank Man. The New York Times published a great retrospective with the photographers who took pictures of Tank Man, as well as a previously unpublished photo from the street.

BBC has a story about reporters being blocked from entering the square today. It includes some humorous video of un-uniformed agents blocking the cameras with umbrellas. Also, a website claims that an unusual number or Chinese social networking websites are “down for maintenance” today.
