Wear the number 64
on your T-shirt

to show solidarity with the Chinese democratic movement

Other languages:

An activist for the Chinese democratic movement, Mr Zhang Xiaogang, is calling upon all participants in the Beijing Olympics, sportsmen, sportswomen and spectators alike, to wear the number 64 on their T-shirts or jackets, to show solidarity with the Chinese democratic movement, symbolized by the number 64, i.e. June 4th, the date of the Tiananmen massacre.  In mainland China, 64 is a most sensitive number.  It is censored in the media.  It is automatically filtered out from all internet access by the official "Golden Shield Project" that carries out political censorship on the internet in China, where writers and surfers are often forced to go around the censorship with all sorts of strange variations of the number, like "6*4'、'⑥④", and Mr Zhang himself often use "(5+1)(5-1)" to refer to 64.
