Forbidden Pictures from Hong Kong: 轉寄 Reading for Solidarity

Dear friends,

To support students’ hunger strike, I initiated a reading action in the past few days next to the hunger strike camp in the Occupation Zone. Hong Kong is cold and windy now. But many young people brought their books and read quietly together for hours. The Occupation is now over 70 days, and the crackdown may be soon to happen. Though we cannot make any political change in the short term, I believe every civic action will empower the participants and transform our civic culture. When I posted these pictures in Weibo (the Chinese twitter),   it was immediately banned. They are indeed very afraid of it.

Best, Pochung
