June 4th, 1989, Tiananmen Square, Beijing, China.
Protesters and workers demand democracy as dictatorships fall one after another in South America, Eastern Europe and East Asia.
The Chinese Communist Party responds by murdering more than 1000 of them.
[ New Footage of Tiananmen in English ]
For 37 years, the world saw only a few seconds.
An ITV News reporter risked everything to film the June 4, 1989 Tiananmen Square crackdown and smuggle the footage out of China.
Less than 20 seconds aired.
The remaining 99% sat hidden in archives for over three decades.
In May 2026, the complete original master tape was finally released. History cannot stay buried forever.
🇨🇳 Censorship in China is backfiring now that young Chinese are secretly learning about the Tiananmen Square massacre.
Even with AI scrubbing every trace of June 4, 1989 from the internet, China’s Gen Z is finding the truth anyway... and often in the weirdest ways!
Olympic skater Alysa Liu’s dad was a Tiananmen protester who fled.
When she won gold, Chinese netizens exploded: some called him a traitor, others got curious.
One 20-year-old Wuhan student dropped a hint on RedNote and her comment got nuked in hours.
Teens are stumbling on it through random livestreams and digging behind the firewall.
They come out stunned: “I had no idea the protests were that huge” or “my whole worldview just collapsed.”
The regime’s total blackout is actually creating curiosity bombs.
Young Chinese are horrified when they learn students were shot and tanks rolled over people, and some now want out.
Truth will always find cracks.
Even the Great Firewall can’t stop it forever.
