Failure June 4, Failure Jesus

June 3, 2013 · Written by Kim Ling, Frankie · Translated by Mark L

This reflection sits the Tiananmen Student Movement alongside the crucifixion of Jesus, considering what it means to call a movement a "failure" when students in the square were swept away after the crackdown of June 4. It reads defeat through the lens of the cross, asking whether apparent failure carries its own theological weight.
