The Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation holds a candlelight vigil at 8 p.m. ET on June 4 to commemorate the Tiananmen Square Massacre on June 4, 1989, when the Chinese communist regime crushed a massive pro-democracy movement in China by sending tanks into Tiananmen Square.
The Chinese Communist Party has since erased all mention of June 4 from its history.
The ceremony will feature insight from:
