June 5, 2014 Was The 25th Anniversary Of The Lone Protester Standing Up To The Tanks In Tiananmen Square
June 5, 2014 was the 25th Anniversary of what I consider to be one of the most extraordinary moments in human history. The incident was captured on film and in a few photographs and involved someone whom is unknown to us today. He is only known as the Tank Man, the Unknown Rebel or the Unknown Protester. This man stood in front of a line of invading tanks. His act was part of the wider Tiananmen Square Protests. If any of you want to find an example of a hero, this man is certainly it. Although his name is not known, his image will be remembered for all time. All of us should reflect on the man and his mission.
