- Title: Tiananmen Square, "Tank Man"
- Artist: Suspects the Butterfly

Description:
China, Beijing's Tiananmen Square, June 1989: With a single act of defiance, a lone Chinese hero revived the world's image of courage. A small, unexceptional figure in slacks and white shirt, carrying what looks to be his shopping, posts himself before an approaching tank, with a line of 17 more tanks behind it. He would become known simply as "Tank Man" or "The Unknown Rebel".

- Over 20 years and he still remains a legendary figure, let's hope people like him will never be forgotten and never fail to be recognized when they appear.
