Shen, Helian: civilians can also promote the democratic process
申鹤连(Shen, Helian)
History does not always created by the leaders, and sometimes civilians can also push history forward.
A recent example is the Tunisian street peddler, he took to the streets because of the lack of a license to sell, and was forced to brutal police confiscated the car stalls.
A few days later, in order to protest against police violence and attempting self-immolation of law enforcement, which led to a series of anti-government demonstrations spread throughout the country intensified, eventually forcing the president announced his resignation, ending 23 years of dictatorship, triggering, including the Middle East, including Egypt and Libya Jasmine democratic revolution, dictators have to step down or even be executed in the Islamic world which opened a new era.
The hawkers are not professional revolutionaries, no profound social and political theory, only the struggle of life at the bottom of the little people, never thought to change the world, just for basic survival and basic dignity, forced to reluctantly make a protest, with small breaks against Kang Da , but it affects the fate of historical development.
There are 89 who "64" during the Chinese blocking nameless warrior tank, he flesh unarmed, even morally forced a team of steel tanks stalled, suicide martyrdom unafraid of death to life Competing excited at the body, has become China people against the symbol of tyranny.
This story shows that even ordinary people, just believe in the moral conscience, stick human dignity, the guardian of fundamental rights, history and justice will also stand by civilians.
I hope that the Chinese people are to participate in the cause of democracy in China, making China the early realization of democracy.
