Growing up I was taught about the "tank man" and that no one knew what happened after the photo and if he was run over or not ... a partial lie. We know that he was taken away by other civilians and wasn't run over.
I was never taught about the Nanjing massacre or Unit 731 but we spent a lot of time talking about Tiananmen square and Holocaust.
I now know that a lot of my education was biased and I assume other people are completely unaware. Most people I've talked to don't know about the rest of the video which is why I brought it up.
- cycrutchfield 7y agoThe identity and fate of Tank Man is generally unknown. If you have information to the contrary, please share it.
- adinobro 7y agoWhen I was a young adult I found out there was a video BUT this is the only section they showed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4woMuFZAx88 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4woMuFZAx88 Now I found out that the media has had this footage the whole time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qq8zFLIftGk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qq8zFLIftGk My favourite part is the grandmother that comes up and tells him off for annoying the tank.
- cycrutchfield 7y agoThat's not really conclusive evidence that he wasn't identified by the government and rounded up later, though.
