Tiananmen was 15 years ago
I remember very clearly that students from Qinghua University were marching in the front, carrying a huge banner. Several old professors in white hair were also part of the march. What caught my particular attention was that one of them was carrying a placard bearing the words: "We have kneeled down too long and are getting up to stretch our legs!"As a research scholar of Chinese history I understood the implied meaning of the slogan on the placard.
