I wasn't even alive for Tienanmen Square, so all I can learn is what I can read and watch. This was a great article, and provided some background I never learned when it was covered in high school. While it's not surprising that this isn't something that Chinese students learn about, it is surprising that their attitude toward the event - and in turn towards protesting - is so negative. What was it like being a Western outsider looking in when all of this unfolded?
