Min and the Protests: A Tiananmen Square Survival Story

Thirteen-year-old Min knows a lot about protesting, as both her parents are activists. But Min has yet to attend a protest. That all changes in June of 1989 when Min follows her parents to Tiananmen Square, where thousands of peaceful protestors are asking for political and economic changes. When the prime minister calls in the military, the peaceful protests become dangerous. Min is separated from her parents, and the square is filled with violence. Min’s life will forever be changed after the Tiananmen Square protests.
