When the peaceful protesters were killed, their spirit would have been killed as well, had they not rise up and fight for what they believed in. In this spirit of resistance, there are a number of similarities to the current struggle of the Tai Ji Men, a group that has for decades fought against systemic injustice and arbitrariness of the system.

In Afghanistan the Taliban has completely taken over the country and has launched a diplomatic offensive to gain international acceptance. However, they have disenfranchised the female population banning women from working and studying. Female Afghan citizens find themselves locked in their houses, at the mercy of a regime which gives them no rights, not to mention religious minorities who have left the country.
