Countdown for China

Today in 1989: Students from Central College for Nationalities protested against Martial Law.

Students from Central College for Nationalities protested against Martial Law. Tibetan students from the Central University for Nationalities marched along Beijing streets. One of their flags had the slogan "human rights, freedom, democracy" written in both Tibetan and Chinese.

While you’re here…

Like you, we are horrified by the violence and the civilian death toll in Gaza, Israel and the rest of the Occupied Palestinian Territories. We’re calling for an immediate ceasefire by all parties in the occupied Gaza Strip and Israel to prevent further loss of civilian lives. Amnesty International is investigating mass summary killings, indiscriminate and disproportionate attacks, hostage-taking, and siege tactics.

As ever, our mission to protect human rights remains. Please donate today to help expose war crimes and protect human rights. Thank you.
