Tian An Men Incident Blogwork

The Tian An Men Incident took place on April 5, 1976 at Tiananmen Square in Beijing, China. Some people strongly disapproved of the removal of the displays of mourning for Premier Zhou Enlai, and began gathering in the Square to protest against the central authorities. This incident meant to me that the Chinese respected Premier Zhou Enlai alot and didn't want the Qing Ming festival to cause all their wreaths, flowers and poems for Premier Zhou to be removed.  The Qingming Festival is when Chinese people visit the graves or burial grounds of their ancestors. The festival originated from Hanshi Day (寒食节). Young and old pray before the ancestors, sweep the tombs and offer food, tea, wine, chopsticks, joss paper accessories, and libations to the ancestors. They believe in giving offerings and praying to their ancestors. We can learn that we should fight for something we believe in and/ or think is unfair.
