[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tank Man: [img]https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/image-cdn-dev.magnum-dev.com/image/15498/1920x4000.jpg[/img] This is mine for so many different reasons. An iconic image of bravery in the face of oppression, but no one knows who Tank Man is. Soon after this photo was taken he melted back into the crowd and into obscurity. And that's overall what happened after Tiananmen Square. The photo is banned in China. There was so much hope after Tiananmen and the fall of the Berlin Wall. We didn't realize that the former would actually be the future.[/quote] Wait, Tank Man escaped? I always assumed he had been caught and disappeared by the authorities.[/quote] We don't really know. He was pulled away by onlookers. This is a pretty good account of the incident and the photo: [url]https://www.cnn.com/interactive/2019/05/world/tiananmen-square-tank-man-cnnphotos/[/url][/quote]
