There was lots of violence in the Tianamen Revolution. It was interesting how the revolution started out non-violent but as it got worse, the army had to kill and arrest. The way you answered the questions were clear and very easy to follow. It is very well organized. Angela

It was very interesting how a man was still trusted to lead the protests just after being released from imprisonment for 8 years. In my group's revolution, Rosa Parks, the first person to go against the law, was imprisoned just like the people imprisoned who were responsible for this revolution. This revolution was successful.

You have added excessive amounts of detail which made the essay well written. You could have added a bit more information on the comparison, because the people power essay was siginificant for it's "nonviolent" acts... But well done! -Loris. This was a well written essay.

The revolution itself was quite interesting, in fact. It was very different from the EDSA II revolution, the one I chose to do, because the EDSA II revolution of the Philippines was completely peaceful, while people were actually killed here. Also, the people who were responsible for this revolution got imprisoned, while the people of the EDSA II revolution did not. -Mahek The essay was very well-written and clear.

This was similar to EDSA II because there was no violence in either revolutions. Also, both revolutions were successful. However, your revolution's aim was to change the whole system of government, while our revolution's aim was to overthrow one leader. This is a very intriguing revolution, especially to me, because everyone knows how much I love singing. XD Anyway, good job! -Mahek This was a very thorough essay.

It is quite similar to EDSA II, the revolution Miwa and I chose to do, in the fact that people took over an important part of the city - the RTS building for this revolution and EDSA for ours - and that the aim was to overthrow the leader of the country. However, the leader of Serbia was a dictator, while Estrada was a corrupt president. Also, this revolution had more violence than ours. It is similar to and different from the first People Power revolution of the Philippines in pretty much the same ways, except Marcos was a dictator, too, while Estrada wasn't. -Mahek This essay was very well done.

You really did a good job with the research and how it was written. Your topic is comparison with the edsa revolution we studied in the Philippines. Your revolution had some violence when the way the filipino citizens made it peaceful the whole way. The revolution you chose has people power traits and is well finished.

Very organized and the phases and crisis details we're impressing. For this question.. Was the revolution justified? Would other methods have worked? i think whoever answered it really knew the topic and their research. Stayed on their answer and its very interesting. Kathy

I thought that it was an interesting way to respond to the second question and thought that you both did a fantastic job in how you decided to answer it. I do believe that you shouldn't post the framework of the revolution as long as you just state what the framework is. I would say a interesting choice of revolutions and that it was a couple of incorrect spelling and grammatical mistakes but overall I thought you did a decent job. Nick

Although your revolution contained violence when the People Power Revolution was a non-violent protest i do see how your revolution is indistinguishable. I thought that your answers to the questions were to the point and you did not avoid giving alot of detail. The only thing i would suggest is that you try not to repeat to much about things you have already stated.... Overall good job Jonathan and Miguel Nick
