April Fifth Movement

The April Fifth Movement was a mass movement that took place in the People's Republic of China and culminated on April 5, 1976. In response to the death of Zhou Enlai, on the Qing Ming Jie holiday, millions of people gathered around Tiananmen Square to protest government policies; they were forcibly removed in the Tiananmen incident (which should not be confused with the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989).

The April Fifth Action group in Hong Kong is named after the Movement.
