各位「六四記憶‧人權博物館」支持者們:

4月清明時節,不少人都會到墳前拜祭逝去了的親友,以表哀思。但「六四」亡魂與更多在極權下死去的人,卻未必能夠得到親友到墳前的祭奠,甚至有人連墓碑也沒有!一直以來,抗爭者的墓地,在中國均為禁忌的場所,春秋二祭期間,經常戒備森嚴,正是憚於亡者過去的勇氣和為生者帶來新的力量。與此同時,世界各地的抗爭運動仍在發生:面對軍政府的殘酷鎮壓,緬甸人會為槍下的無辜亡靈獻上鮮花;流亡港人則發起《2021香港約章》,以防止海外運動泡沫化……「六四記憶‧人權博物館」想留存的不僅是1989年發生在中國的民主運動,更希望能夠將這場運動置入更大的時空視野,讓大家看到多年來抗爭運動在世界範圍所形成的力量,正如香港人所言的「遍地開花」。

過去一個月,在總策展人長平先生構思下,博物館目錄及館藏分類逐步具體化;博物館團隊與設計團隊緊密接洽,已擬定博物館的設計風格與呈現方式。從4月份開始,我們將進行密集的資料分類及輸入工作,需要大量人手支援。在此,我們徵求有一定文檔資料處理能力、有耐心且細心的工讀夥伴或願意犠牲個人休息時間襄助的朋友加入,團隊將按照工作時數付予酬金。如您有可靠且信任的親友、學生對這項工作有興趣,請隨時透過以下電郵與我們聯絡:64.museum.online@protonmail.com

正在閱讀本郵件的你,如果也有個人收藏、曾參與過研究與1989中國學潮、民運或曾接觸過相關資料、或是保存過上述資料的機構的代表,如果你願意將自己的親身經歷或曾經手過的歷史資料,在網絡「六四」博物館儲存一份檔案,以資永久保存,並作為眾多脈絡的一部分開放給公眾閱覽,我們是非常希望能夠與你合作收藏的。請一定來郵與我們聯絡。

如果有任何關於博物館的建議、意見、資源聯絡,也歡迎給我們寫信。

願大家平安順遂!

Progress
。Collaborate with the design team to finalize the layout design
。Begin the process of data categorisation and logging
。Seek helpers (compensated at hourly rate)

Dear supporter of the 'June 4th Memory & Human Rights Museum',

April is the season for tomb sweeping, but countless victims from the June 4th massacre and many other tyrannies are still waiting for their long overdue commemoration. The tombs of the dissidents have been prohibited sites with strict guarding in China, somehow reflecting the fear of those in power that the courage of the departed might empower the living. At the same time, protesters across different regions are still fighting for their rights: the people in Myanmar, facing the brutal suppression of junta, are still offering flowers for those innocent victims, while Hong Kong’s exiled activists have recently initiated the ‘Hong Kong Charter 2021’ to prevent the overseas movements from vanishing. What the 'June 4th Memory & Human Rights Museum' is trying to do is not just preserving the memories of the Chinese democratic movement of 1989, but also adding in wider spatial and temporal perspectives, exhibiting the dynamic created by the numerous movements around the world — just as how people in Hong Kong term it: ‘blossom everywhere’.

For the past month, the categorisation of collections of the museum has gradually been materialised under the coordination of chief curator, Chang Ping. The curation team is now closely collaborating with the design team to finalize the layout design. From April onwards, we will begin the process of data categorisation and logging, which requires a lot of efforts and time. For this reason, we are seeking detail-oriented helpers (compensated at hourly rate) who are experienced in data handling to work part-time with us on this task. Please contact us at 64.museum.online@protonmail.com if you know any reliable persons who would be willing to help.

Once again, if you possess any collections, or have participated in any researches related to the 1989 student demonstration and the democracy movement, please contact us to have your contributions or possession permanently archived in our online museum as part of the historical documentation for public access. Representatives from institutions preserving any aforementioned materials are welcome as well.

Please contact us should you have any advice or information that you would like to share with us.

Best wishes,

June 4th Memory & Human Rights Museum
