纪念“六四”25周年倡议
我们不会忘记“六四”!
2014年6月4日是北京大屠杀二十五周年纪念日。二十五年前的那天,中国军队受命于中共( CCP )最高领导人对成百上千手无寸铁的中国公民进行屠杀。全世界把这天称为天安门大屠杀。1989年4月中旬,数以百万计的和平示威者和支持者在北京游行,抗议官员贪腐、要求经济公正、呼吁中国独裁政治体制民主化。在中国各地近>200个城市也举行了类似的示威游行。统治者感到游行对其垄断权力的威胁,在邓小平领导下的中共将此和平示威定性为反革命暴动。他们不但不与示威者进行积极的对话,反而对他们采用致命的武力手段。虽然中国社会自1989年后更加开放,但当局禁止在国内对六四进行公开的讨论 。现在是打破这一沉默的时候了。
我们以下签字者在工作和生活上和中国有着千丝万缕的联系,对中国的美好未来非常关切。我们认为需要对中国的过去进行坦诚和公开的讨论。为此,我们呼吁在世界各地的学校、大学、民间组织、基金会、研究机构、非政府组织和类似实体在2014年月15>日和6月4日之间大力赞助并召集各项活动,以宣讲会、讲座、纪念游行、新闻发布会和其他适当形式纪念“六四”二十五周年,在悼念死难者的同时,让公众了解在1989年的春天在中国所发生的一切及“六四”对其后的中国政治进程所产生的重大意义,同时就促进目前正在进行的关于在中国真正政治改革的紧迫性展开讨论。
