From the May Fourth to Baodiao: Defend the Diaoyu Islands Movement 1971-2021 海上風雷:五四論保釣,1971-2021
May 3, 2021 @ 9:00 pm - 11:00 pm
This forum will be conducted in Mandarin
In 1971, overseas Chinese students across the United States launched the Baodiao movement in response to the territorial disputes over the Diaoyu/Senkaku Islands between Mainland China, Taiwan, Japan, and the United States. The movement ignited massive demonstrations and debates on issues from sovereignty to territoriality, and form patriotism to global leftism, such that it was compared to the May Fourth Movement. Fifty years after the movement, veteran participants, scholars, and students will discuss its significance and impacts on contemporary cultural politics.
