Good thread to explain what's happening with #2021HKcharter. It's an important step to the diasporic HKers community, to facilitate discussion and mutual trust. twitter.com/WilliamYang120…

Non-jury trial is set for one of the most most iconic National Security Law cases. Rule of law is violated, and these defendants are charged because of running in a primary election —what an absurd development. My blessing is with all the defendants, including @joshuawongcf.

@joshuawongcf, @chowtingagnes and Ivan Lam will appear in court tomorrow. They could be locked immediately if the court considers it necessary.
Hope everyone is closely following the development of their cases.

My deepest gratitude to @freedomhouse for using an image of Hong Kong protest as the cover of their latest annual report. The worldwide democracy index once again declined -- and we need a global effort to restore it.

We continue our battle regardless of where we are.
On June 4th, we are hosting a rally with Ukrainian groups in London to remind everyone of the threats from dictators;
On June 12th, we are united to light the spirit of Hong Kong protest.
Come join us.

For anyone who says there's freedom of speech in Hong Kong -- this is what speech crime looks like.

Thank you @BritishVogue for featuring my story as #MrVogue in the #Septemberissue. We need to call for larger accountabilities to authoritarian governments and protect democratic values as global democracy dwindles.
Hope that my story can spark more action.

We must realize how fragile our freedoms and democracies are, and protect them actively. We are not only the beneficiaries of democracy, but also the guardians of it.
