VOA Broadcast Live: Protests Upgraded in Front of the Chinese Consulate in New York

 

Reporter: Hai-yin from New York

 

 

June 4, 2012 is the 23rd anniversary of the Chinese government mobilization of the military to massacre the students who had peaceful demonstrations in Beijing's Tiananmen Square.  Chinese democracy activists in exile, are holding "Do not forget June 4" commemorations around the world.  On Monday in New York, the Wei Jingsheng Foundation and the Chinese Liberal and Democratic Party had a demonstration in front the Chinese Consulate General.  At the same time, the National Committee of the Chinese Democratic Party also displayed its PLA tank model, which is moved from its protest location at Times Square on the previous day, to the front of the Chinese Consulate General, as a way to show how brutal the crackdown was that the Chinese government had against the demonstrators back then.

 

Voice of America broadcast the protest live in full length.  In the video, the famous Chinese democracy movement leader Wei Jingsheng and other pro-democracy activists delivered speeches to the Chinese people through the VOA live broadcast.

The following is Wei Jingsheng's second speech to both Chinese and Tibetan friends at the end of the protest in front of the Chinese Consulate General in the afternoon on June 4, 2012, as shown in the video in the above link. 

 

Wei Jingsheng: "I am pleased that we can be together.  So many of our friends are together, in memory of our brothers and sisters killed during the June 4 massacre.  We are commemorating not only our brothers and sisters who were killed in the Tiananmen Square massacre, but also our brothers and sisters massacred in Lhasa that year of 1989.  Why were they massacred in that year?  It was because they wanted to create a new future for China.  They were not willing to be oppressed, exploited, and to be deceived.  So the Communist Party sent tanks, machine guns, and the army to massacre them.  Now we commemorate these victims.  As a matter of fact, we continue their undertaking and continue their hard efforts.  The Chinese government always wants people not to resist.  It hopes that shameless intellectuals will help to propagandize for it, asking people not to resist, to cooperate with the Communist regime, to let the Communist Party reform by itself.  This tune has deceived many people.  But we still have so many brothers and sisters persisting.  As long as we are persisting, ultimately, the final victory is ours.  Thank you all!"

 

Following Mr. Wei was a speech by Ms. Chen Liqun.  She said that some people on Facebook said that there was no massacre.  "We could ask, was there a massacre or not?"  People responded that "hundreds and thousands" were killed in the square.  She said: "We put this imitation tank here to remind people not to forget.  We must remember this massacre, and never let this kind of thing happening again.  We want to end one-party dictatorship and establish democracy.  Freedom belongs to the people."

 

Then, Chen Pokong recited a commemorative poem he wrote 23 years ago right after the massacre.  A young man Kong Lingxi gave a speech.  Then artist Chen Weimin explained his are performance in action.

VOA现场:纽约中领馆前抗议活动升级

记者: 海彦 | 纽约

 

 

2012年6月4日是中国政府调动军队在北京天安门对和平示威的学生进行大屠杀23周年。流亡海外的中国民主人士正在世界各地举行“勿忘六四”纪念活动。星期一在纽约,魏京生基金会和中国自由民主党联合在中国总领事馆前举行抗议活动。与此同时,中国民主党全国委员会也把头一天在时报广场展出的一个解放军坦克模型搬到中领馆门前,展示中国政府当年如何残酷镇压示威者。

 

美国之音VOA现场节目从现场全程转播这次抗议活动,并有中国著名民主运动领袖魏京生和其他民运活动人士通过VOA现场向中国民众发表讲话。

以下是以上网页中的录像内容,包括活动结束前魏京生对汉藏朋友们的又一次讲演:“很高兴大家能在一起。这么多朋友在一起,纪念六四遭到屠杀的兄弟姐妹。我们纪念的不光是天安门广场遭到屠杀的兄弟姐妹,还有在拉萨遭到屠杀的兄弟姐妹。他们都是在那一年遭到的屠杀。他们为什么会遭到屠杀?因为他们想为中国创造一个新的前途。他们不愿意受压迫、受剥削、受欺骗。所以共产党就派出了坦克、机枪、军队来屠杀他们。我们现在纪念他们,实际上就是继续他们的事业,继续努力。中国政府总是想不要反抗。无耻文人也帮着宣传,说是不要反抗,和共产党合作,让共产党自己改革挺好。这种论调欺骗了不少人。但是我们有这么多兄弟姐妹还在坚持。只要坚持,最终的胜利就是我们的。谢谢大家!”

 

魏京生讲话以后,陈立群讲话。她说,有些人在facebook上说当年没有发生屠杀。大家说有没有?抗议的人们说“杀了成千上万”。她说:“我们把模拟的坦克放在这里,就是要大家不要遗忘,要记住这场大屠杀,绝不要这样的事情再次发生。我们要结束一党专制,建立民主。自由属于人民。”

 

接着,陈破空朗诵了他23年前在屠杀之后写的诗。青年孔令犀发表了讲话,然后由艺术家陈维民先生解释了他的行为艺术表演。
