eli5: what is the context and the full story of the man infront of a tank video/picture
In: Other
Back in 1989, a lot of people in China protested how the government was running things and wanted change. After several days, China’s army got sent to chase the people out and it turned into a bloodbath. One day, when the tanks were moving out, the tank man stood and blocked the tank column deliberately. Most of the world doesn’t know who he is/was but he became a symbol of the protesters’ determination and defiance.
