This is the first year since the handover of #HongKong's sovereignty without an annual July 1st protest march, we have prepared a summary of important 71 protests over the years. It is also a history of the decline of Hong Kong's #freedomofexpression.

Far reached #CCP influence that threatens the freedom of speech all over the world! Universities in #UK and #USA have been allowing students to hide their identity for some topics - which should be allowed to discuss freely! Now #Australia is following too ... such a shame for the countries that "protect" #freedom and #democracy!

Punished for exercising basic rights. #CCP is telling #HongKong that having beliefs is criminal!

You may remember that a while ago we did a Q&A about what films #CCP hates, well here are a fresh batch of films made about #HongKong's fight for freedom. Many were censored in #HK but that cannot stop the world from watching them. PLEASE REQUEST THEM FROM #NETFLIX. We have included the link to the request form on our story, which is included in the film story highlights too.

We heard it's more effective to include both the English and Chinese titles when you fill in the form, if you want to copy and paste the titles, please dm.

TLDR: 就算失望，不能絕望。共勉之。

This is not a post recounting the details of the #UmbrellaRevolution so much as what it stood for and how it informed the #fightforfreedom in #HongKong. For years, #HKers had been struggling to defend our rights and values from the #CCP. The #UmbrellaMovement in 2014 was for many an awakening to the root cause of the social problems in #HK - the lack of a popularly mandated government as ours was (and is) but a #Beijing puppet.

The experience of 2014 produced the now much more mainstream indigenous ideology and inspired new protest tactics in 2019. Hong Kong has never stopped evolving to cope with challenges and does not intend to stop now. "Be water", the city-wide pro-democracy movement in 2019 taught us, even though it may be dark and the suffering ahead seem endless, don't lose heart. We will remember who we are, what we stand for, persevere and outlive the tyrant.
