The Setting 🐉
- China's View of Tibet: Not a separate nation but one of China's provinces.
- When did the tension start? Ever since the People's Liberation Army (PLA) showed up in Tibet in 1950.
Deng Xiaoping's Era 🕺
- Deng's Approach: Easing tensions! He highlighted the positives of aligning with Beijing, including better education, healthcare, modern transportation, and progress from Tibet's old-school methods.
- Did the Tibetans buy it? Nope! Most Tibetans felt the underlying motive was to wipe out their unique identity.
1985: The Tibetan Pushback
- Tibetans didn't celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Tibetan Autonomous Region (TAR). Think of it as someone refusing to come to a birthday party because they're still mad at the host.
- Result? More protests in the late 1980s, and China sending more PLA troops. There were some nasty fights.
- Dalai Lama's Stand: From abroad, the Dalai Lama called China's actions "cultural genocide". Imagine someone telling you that your attempt to 'help' is actually destroying their culture.
- Big Highlight: Dalai Lama wins the Nobel Peace Prize in 1989! 🏆 This wasn't just a pat on the back for him, but a global shout-out supporting Tibet's cause.
