Edited sentence: Both demonstrations failed to bring democracy to China.Both demonstrations were held by people who wanted democracy in China.It is a sad pity that two attempts in which ordinary people protested for democracy and tried to bring it to China failed.Many historians see parallels between the demonstrations in Beijing in 1919 and in 1989.The May Fourth Movement happened exactly 70 years and 1 month before the demonstration and massacre in June 4th, 1989.The May Fourth Movement was very similar to the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989 in China.They are an excellent example of how history repeats itself
