| Abstract | Harsh is, increasingly, the tone used by Chinese themselves when they talk about compatriots like Liu Gang, a student leader during the Tiananmen protests of 1989. Some of today's students and intellectuals even call him a "traitor". Liu's crime? He surfaced in the U.S., escaping what he says was frequent harassment of his friends and family by police, and possible imprisonment for himself. Washington is considering his request for political asylum. |
