Question

Read the following excerpt on the Tiananmen Square protests. Then answer the question that follows.

June 4, 2014, marked the 25th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square protests. On this day in 1989, a large number of students were gunned down by the People’s Liberation Army for demanding their rights. Years after the massacre, China still refuses to speak about the incident. It has banned any discussions about Tiananmen Square. Chinese school textbooks do not mention anything about this event that changed China’s future. Recently, when a journalist showed the image of the Tank Man to students in Beijing, China, very few recognized the image.

Based on the excerpt, what can you infer about China’s memories of Tiananmen Square?
