May 30th Movement in China

Years: 1925 - 1926

The May 30 Movement, a labor and antiimperalist movement during early History of the Republic of China, begins on May 30, 1925, when the Shanghai Municipal Police open fire on Chinese strikers in Shanghai's International Settlement.

The shootings spark nationwide anti-foreign demonstrations.

"[the character] Professor Johnston often said that if you didn't know history, you didn't know anything. You were a leaf that didn't know it was part of a tree."

― Michael Crichton, Timeline (November 1999)
