Ahead of the 37th anniversary of June Fourth, Beijing tightened its police presence.

The “Tiananmen Mothers” said they were unable to visit the cemetery to mourn their loved ones this year, the first time they have been barred in more than 30 years.

Amnesty International criticized the move as extremely cold-hearted and said it also showed that the authorities were stepping up their crackdown on commemorative activities.

He Xiaoqing, who studies history, said that for 37 years, June Fourth has never been explained fairly, and the truth has often been covered up.
