Canada: Toronto
Address: 209 Jameson Ave, Toronto, ON M6K 2Y3, Canada
Date: 10 March 2019
Time: 08:30-15:30 EDT
Information: This year will mark the 60th anniversary of the Tibetan National Uprising day that took place on March 10th in 1959. Tibetans in Lhasa revolted against Chinese rule. The People’s Liberation Army responded with force, triggering His Holiness the Dalai Lama’s flight into exile a week later. This year also marks 10 years since the mass uprisings across Tibet took place as a response to the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Despite the odds, Tibetans have actively and fiercely rejected and resisted Chinese rule for 59 years.
Today Tibetans in Tibet, and those in exile around the world, continue the struggle for Tibetan identity, freedom, human rights and for the return of His Holiness the Dalai Lama to Tibet.
Please join us for this year’s commemoration of the Tibetan National Uprising Day.
Please RSVP and SAVE THE DATE. We will post details shortly.
This event is organized by: Canadian Tibetan Association of Ontario, Chushi Gangdruk Society of Canada, Tibetan Women’s Association of Ontario, Regional Tibetan Youth Congress and Students for a Free Tibet Canada.

རབ་བྱུང་གཅིག་གི་གོད་ཆག རང་དབང་རྩོད་པའི་བོད།
Six Decades of Calamity. Tibet Demands Freedom.時間:2019年3月10日下午13:00集合
集合地點:在228公園(館前路/國立臺灣博物館廣場)
遊行終點:西本願寺廣場
活動攤位:14:00-16:00在西本願寺廣場(攤位內容即將公佈)西藏/圖博自古擁有自己的語言、文化和信仰,在高原上與環境共存共榮數千年。1913年2月13日,第十三世達賴喇嘛宣佈西藏是一個獨立的國家。
然而,1949年開始,中國解放軍入侵西藏東部,迫使西藏政府在1951年簽訂《十七點和平協議》,1959年3月10日,西藏爆發大規模的抗暴運動,隨後被中國併吞,西藏人民從此失去自由與人權,更受到歧視與屠殺,中國政府也以「現代化」之名漢化藏人成為「中國人」,他們的語言、文化和宗教因此嚴重流失。
藏人在境外的流亡,今年已屆滿60年。一甲子的顛沛流離,並沒有使藏人失去希望,並持續以非暴力的方式傳達訴求。達賴喇嘛尊者以及西藏的文化帶給現代社會無數的啟發,而我們能為西藏做什麼?當中國以鋭實力影響世界,我們又該如何阻止人權侵害從中國輸出世界,並在高原上不斷重演?
在3月10日,西藏的流亡即將屆滿60年;雖然經歷了充滿浩劫的一甲子,我們仍然要一同來捍衛西藏的自由。
