Watch the following clip
carefully.
Tank Man, or the Unknown Rebel, is the nickname of an anonymous man who
stood in front of a column of Chinese tanks the morning after the Chinese military
forcibly removed protestors from in and around Beijing’s Tiananmen Square on
June 5, 1989.
Several hundred civilians had been shot dead by the Chinese army during a bloody military operation to crush a democratic protest (most of which were peaceful) in Peking's (Beijing) Tiananmen Square the
previous day.
TANK MAN
What was he doing?
What was unusual
about the way he did
it?
This man was a PACIFIST – what do you
think this means?
PACIFISM
1. The belief that war and violence are unjustifiable under any circumstances,
and that all disputes should be settled by peaceful
means.
2. The refusal to participate in war or military service
because of such a belief.
A lot of religious people class themselves as pacifists. There are a number of religious organisations who oppose war and
try to achieve world peace in a non-violent way.
How can PACIFISTS
achieve peace in a non-
violent way?
• Education - educating both sides to help them settle differences
• Teaching forgiveness - through religious teachings
• Encouraging pacifism - getting others to follow their lead
• Speeches - speaking out against injustice
• Campaigning (marches, protests, sit ins, petitions etc) - against injustice and app restive governments
• Keeping people informed - showing people around the world of injustice in certain areas
• Reconciliation - Getting both sides to talk to each other and encouraging a truce.
