The Voice of America Window on the World Program Broadcasts Its Interview with Wei Jingsheng:

June 4th Massacre Made People Recognize the True Face of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)

On June 3, 2021, the eve of June 4th, the Voice of America Window on the World program broadcast its host Zhiyuan’s interview with Wei Jingsheng. The following is a brief introduction:

This year marks the 32nd anniversary of the Tiananmen Square Massacre in China, and the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Chinese Communist Party. In the latest issue of Newsweek, an article by Michael Sobolik wrote: “For most of the world, the anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre recalls familiar yet macabre vignettes of hopeful students and the iron tanks that crushed them, along with their cries for freedom.” However, inside China, "You will find entries on Baidu Baike [China's Wikipedia] for the years 1988 and 1990—but 1989 doesn't exist. An entire year has been erased from history." " The party's crusade to rewire the memories of 1.4 billion people has been largely successful." Recently, the Tiananmen Mothers group issued a memorial article: Years have passed, but our beliefs and perseverance will never change. However, such calls seem to have never been answered by those in power in China. So, what is the significance of commemorating the June 4, 1989 Tiananmen Square Massacre? Voice of America reporter Zhiyuan interviewed Wei Jingsheng, chairman of the Overseas Chinese Democracy Coalition, to discuss this and related issues.

美国之音时事经纬节目采访魏京生：六四让人们认清了共产党的真面目

2021年6月3日六四前夕，美国之音时事经纬节目播出了其主持致远对魏京生的采访，以下为内容简介:

今年是中国六四天安门事件32周年，中共建党一百周年。最新一期新闻周刊署名文章称每逢天安门广场大屠杀周年纪念日都让全世界人们回想起那些充满希望的学生，以及他们对自由的呼喊。不过，在中国国内，“你会发现在百度百科上 1989 年条目不存在。整整一年已经从历史中抹去。”“共产党重塑 14 亿人记忆的努力取得了很大的成功。”近日天安门母亲团体发表祭文：岁月流逝但我们的信念与坚守永不改变。可是，这种呼声似乎从来没有得到中国当权者的回应。那么，纪念六四天安门事件还有什么意义，美国之音记者致远连线采访中国民主运动海外联席会议主席魏京生探讨相关问题。
