The protests in China may have been silenced, for now. But could this be the start of a new political awakening among young people in the country? Host Juana Summers talks to Yangyang Cheng, a Fellow at Yale Law School's Paul Tsai China Center , and Professor Mary Gallagher, who directs the Center for Chinese Studies at the University of Michigan about why this is happening now.
