A young man holding a copy of "May 35", the book version of Candace Chong's Tiananmen play, was taken for a search, and minutes later taken away on a police van.
He gave a thumbs up gesture as he was led away by officers.
Today marks the 34th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square Massacre.
The Chinese government's attacks on freedom of expression have continued in the years since, with Tibet recently ranked the least free country in the world.
But the fight for freedom will never cease.

How does China target Tibetans w transnational repression? And why?
@Tendor explains to @CECCgov:
"The Chinese govt launched a new campaign to clean up its global image, but instead of improving its rights record at home, Beijing decided to go after the Tibet movement abroad.”
In the Freedom House report published yesterday, Tibet again ranked the least free country in the world.
Today, tibetans observe the 64th anniversary of Tibetan uprising Day highlighting their resilience and spirit.
The struggle goes on.
In the latest @freedomhouse report, #Tibet has, AGAIN, been ranked the LEAST FREE COUNTRY in the world. As in 2022 and 2021, Tibet has scored 1 out of 100 in its survey of political freedoms & civil rights.
Today, as #Tibetans observe the 64th #TibetanUprisingDay, join us & support our peaceful struggle for our homeland.
Never Forget #Tibet.
#Tibet raised at 38th #EU-#China human rights dialogue in Brussels.

This #TibetanIndependenceDay, know more about the #Tibetan National Flag.
HH the 13th #DalaiLama designed a new banner & issued a proclamation for its adoption. This banner became the present #Tibetan national #flag in 1916 based on ancient Tibetan military flags.

Today is the #HumanRightsDay, and I want you to remember Jimmy Lai — the 75-year-old pro-democracy media mogul who was sentenced to 5 year and 9 months in jail yesterday.
And all political prisoners now unjustly detained in Hong Kong, Tibet, East Turkestan, China, and elsewhere.
"I pray for all of us, oppressor and friend, that together we succeed in building a better world through #human understanding and #love, and that in doing so we may reduce the pain and suffering of all sentient beings."
For my homeland, for my brothers and sisters who are suffering even as we speak, for the light of humanity which continues to lead me and you, for the world's Rooftop that needs your help.

It didn’t take long. The #Chinese gov announced that any individual who shares news about “the Fire in Uyghur #Urumqi city” beyond the gov narrative would face a penalty. They urge citizens to respect the Covid policy.
Chinese gov’s various control machinery is already activated.
