Approaching two years after the tragedy that struck Sichuan province, its effects are still extremely present and the Chinese government has continued to censor, suppress and jail those vocal about the incident. The families persist in their struggle for justice and China has made every effort to silence inquiry into the collapse of the schools of Sichuan. However, instead of brushing the controversy under the rug, their continued pattern of censorship and oppression only draws more attention to the tragedy of 2008.
