10 March - Tibetan Uprising Day

Tibetan Uprising Day is observed annually on March 10. It is a day set aside to remember the Tibetan uprising against the People’s Republic of China’s presence in Tibet in 1959. It is observed primarily by pro-Tibetan organizations and people and is frequently accompanied by the Dalai Lama’s delivery of a statement calling for renewed efforts to restore Tibet’s rightful place in the world.

Tibet, as it is today, was first unified in the Seventh Century A.D., by King Songsten Gampo and his successors. However, its history began in 127 B.C., with the formation of the Yarlung Dynasty. The People’s Liberation Army of the People’s Republic of China initially entered Tibet in 1949, defeating the small Tibetan army and seizing half of the nation, marking a watershed moment in Tibet’s history.

Repression, which included the destruction of holy buildings and the arrest of monks and other community leaders, rose substantially as resistance to the Chinese occupation grew, particularly in Eastern Tibet. The Communist Chinese government invaded Tibet in 1950, causing chaos and misery for Tibetans, finally resulting in the fall of the Tibetan government and the self-imposed exile of the Dalai Lama and 100,000 Tibetans in 1959.

Despite all the religious persecution, loss of their national heritage, and frequent violations of their human rights, Tibetans continue to raise their voices in unison, asking for independence.

Tibet is still considered a sovereign state under international law. Tibet’s sovereignty has not been transferred to China as a result of China’s armed invasion and ongoing occupation by the People’s Liberation Army (P.L.A.).

All who continue to support this cause believe, that someday, Tibet will achieve the independence it so dearly desires and deserves.

10 March - Telephone Centennial stamp was issued by USA

 

On March 10, 1976, the Postal Service issued a 13-cent Telephone Centennial stamp (Scott 1683) to honor the 100th anniversary of Alexander Graham Bell's invention of the telephone. The stamp was designed by George Tachemy based on Bell's original sketch of the first telephone.

The Bureau of Engraving and Printing produced the black, purple, and red stamp on the Giori press on tan paper as sheets of two hundred subjects, tagged, perforated 11, and distributed as panes of fifty and a plate number in each corner are printed in the selvage.

Bell's notebook entry of March 10, 1876, described his successful experiment with the telephone. Speaking through the instrument to his assistant, Thomas A. Watson, in the next room, Bell uttered these famous first words, "Mr. Watson, come here, I want to see you." The date marked not only the birth of the telephone but also the death of the multiple telegraph. The communications potential contained in Bell’s demonstration of being able to "talk with electricity" far outweighed any advantage that simply increasing the capability of a dot-and-dash system could imply.
