Hello there! I actually live in China at the moment and I'm pretty sure you WON'T be able to find any websites about the Tienanmen Square Massacre. Mostly because the Chinese government likes to block websites they don't like. So you might want to just ask about it here...but you don't want to get yourself into trouble. They do look at the stuff you post on the internet you know. Good luck

The Tiananmen Square protests of 1989, commonly referred to as the Tiananmen Square Massacre,[1] were a series of demonstrations led by labor activists, students, and intellectuals in the People's Republic of China (PRC) between April 15 and June 4, 1989. While the protests lacked a unified cause or leadership, participants were generally critical of the ruling Chinese Communist Party and voiced complaints ranging from minor criticisms to calls for full-fledged democracy and the establishment of broader freedoms. The demonstrations centered on Tiananmen Square in Beijing, but large-scale protests also occurred in cities throughout China, including Shanghai, which stayed peaceful throughout the protests. In Beijing, the resulting military crackdown on the protesters by the PRC government left many civilians dead or injured. The toll ranges from 200–300 (PRC government figures), to 400–800 by The New York Times, and to 2,000–3,000 (Chinese student associations and Chinese Red Cross).
Following the violence, the government conducted widespread arrests to suppress protestors and their supporters, cracked down on other protests around China, banned the foreign press from the country and strictly controlled coverage of the events in the PRC press. Members of the Party who had publicly sympathized with the protesters were purged, with several high-ranking members placed under house arrest, such as General Secretary Zhao Ziyang. The violent suppression of the Tiananmen Square protest caused widespread international condemnation of the PRC government.

Hello,
You need to make sure you have the spelling correct first. It is spelt tiananmen. Then you go to www.google.com and type it in there. The website will come up with any information it has about it. I hope you have good luck to find it. Also try www.kimsoft.com/korea/tien.htm

He was real brave Chinese man and people at that time really hoped democratic society would come.
I guess if you were from mainland China, you won't be able to read/watch both YouTube and Wikipedia (Chinese government cut it off). How about these?
