How To Fight for Freedom at Tiananmen Square and Beyond - PODCAST with Fengsuo Zhou (67 min)

An interview with Fengsuo Zhou, a heroic student leader at Tiananmen Square in 1989, about his journey to freedom

Comrades:

is a living legend.

In 1989, Fengsuo was one of the student leaders at Tiananmen Square. He started and ran “The Voice of Students” radio station as a dissident pro-democracy communications hub. In the aftermath of the crackdown, he was one of the most wanted “criminals” and imprisoned for a year.

Few men on this planet are as brave or have sacrificed as much as Fengsuo. I am in awe of how humble and steadfast he remains. In our conversation, we discuss:

  • His most visceral memories from June 4, 1989 and its aftermath

  • How we can support freedom in China and around the world

  • What gives him hope
