Tiananmen 25th Anniversary – the unseen part @ Victoria Park, Hong Kong – 4 June 2014

http://bcmagazine.smugmug.com/Bcene-photos/2014/Tiananmen-25th-Anniversary/41425488_4FHBHt#!i=3292588405&k=v36v76L

The annual Tiananmen Anniversary vigil in Victoria Park remembers those who died in 1989. Beyond the sentiment though there’s a solid practical reason for the political parties involved, it’s good business. All those wanting to honour the memory of the deceased are funnelled through two entrances into Victoria Park. Outside and in, are a plethora of earnest activists hard-selling books, t-shirts, flyers, flowers, models, fans, umbrellas… or just straight out guilt-asking for donations.

Tiananmen 25th Anniversary @ Victoria Park, Hong Kong – 4 June 2014

25 years on hundreds of thousands of Hong Kongers paused to remember those who died in Tiananmen Square. The vigil honours not only their memory but their struggle to be heard.
